| Description |
Super Deformed Double Feature is
the American release of two OVAs: "Ten
Little Gall Force" and "Scramble
Wars". These are parodies of famous series
released by Artmic and Movic studios. The first
is an obvious parody of the Gall Force serires
(this one focusing on the first two releases in a
"behind-the-scene" style). The second
one is rally through the desert featuring
characters from several shows made by Artmic (in
fact, on the opening credits one can clearly read
"for Artmic freaks" or something like
that). Three shows (Gall Force, Bubblegum Crisis
and Gaiarth) recieves the more focus while the
others (among them, AD POlice AND Genesis Climber
MOSPEADA - a.k.a. Robotech: The New Generation!)
made cameos through the race. |

I'm
not that much into comedy, but this OVAs are
killer! Specially since they're parodies of my
two favorite shows: Gall Force and Bubblegum Crisis (having both in one show is
great, even if it's a comedy). The plot is
nowhere near the dead-serious atmosphere we got
on the original versions, but that's the whole
meaning of a parody (super-deformed or other
wise): make fun of a serious, FAMOUS show. By the
way, the curious thing about this shows is that
they were made by the same companies that made
the originals [Movic and Artmic] ! In Japan is a
tradition to make self-parodies of a show instead
of waiting for somebody to do them. If you
haven't seen these, you're missing one of the
most hilarious animes ever made (IMHO).
Recommended! NOTE: Robotech/Mospeada freaks (like
trully yours ^_^] will be pleased to know that
Scott/Stig Bernard makes SEVERAL cameos
throughout Scramvble Wars (see my Scramble Wars page for images!) |
