Anime freaks look in here..10$ paypal reward offered for information

[basara318]

there is this one anime i watched when i was little. i dunno the english name for it but its something like "war from the skies" its a series like saint seiya or power rangers but the costumes are diff. its based on the 8 demons of buddism, with robo-beasts such as the phoneix, the lion, the tiger , the dragon etc, and one of the evil bosses is shiva. once again i have searched high and low for this anime but i couldnt find it due to the fact that i dont even know its english name. i would be forever grateful to anyone who could tell me the name or "gulp" even find it forsale somewhere. i would offer 10$ paypal as a reward. surprisingly a few month ago i saw it broadcasted on time warner cable international channel on a sat mornin. unfortunately no name was provided and its all in japanese

Perhaps it was Gatchaman, or War Of The Planets, as it was called in one U.S. release.

Its "Shurato:The Heavenly Wars" or something pretty similar to that. 8 robo-beast that transform into armor for the heroes, with Indra as the other bad dudes right?

 

[basara318]

he battle of the planets.. i remember that too. .but sadly no.. its a pure japanese anime and it involves robotic beasts that also transforms into armors that the heros can wear

OMGGG...... rufru u nailed it.. now do you know where i can obtain a copy in any form??????????
wow!!!!!!

 

[rufruf44]

Hmmm, if its pretty similar to St.Seiya and has robobeast, I would say
BtX, but I didnt know if they fight Shiva in it.

NM, I got it right the 1st time 🙂
I don't know if they sell it commercially, but go to dalnet in IRC or some fansubber site, and you can get them.

 

[basara318]

THATS EXACTLY IT. .. someone sell me a copy!!

 

[Fozzie]

Do you want the whole series? Or just certain episodes?
