Viewing Notes
Korean produced “anime” remake of TRON. More like a reimagining but clearly taking a lot from TRON and a little Speed Racer, too. It’s interesting for how closely it resembles Japanese anime from that period (Macross) when Japanese programs were banned in South Korea at the time. Ofc there was access to JP media by whatever means but for this they really don’t try to do anything different in the style. Like I wouldn’t know this was made in South Korea if I didn’t know the history behind it.
The story is decent but the English dubbing is amateurish and often sounds like some dudes recording it in their basement. The women’s voices have English and Australian accents which is odd. I’d rate this higher if it had a better dub or the original Korean.
