I remember watching the first screening of that episode with my brother in 1982. We cracked up laughing. :lol:

:cry: Lucky you! You were able to watch the 80's eps as they were brand new while we europeans had to wait 4 years longer for the series to appear on the TVscreen.

Perhaps the french editors were struggling that long with copyright reasons :unsure: ?
Or did this particular competition game took 4 years to develope?

:huh: I don't know....


edit: Aargh, my post score scares me! I suddenly feel the urge to watch some 'Omen' movies :wacko:

Releases from Japan usually follow that order: Asia, USA, Europe (don't know for other continents). If it works on a given continent, then proceed to the next. Of course, each step is to be proceeded with due time to be sure it's ok. After all, if it doesn't work in USA for example, it won't work in Europe either, will it? <_<
Moreover, given what Jay_Rath had said in another topic, I suspect they were [i]extremely

Yes, my impression was that it was to be sort of secret that this was a Japanese series -- that was Nippon TV's decision, to delete all references to Japan. At the time there was not the appreciation of Japanese animation that we have today. And this may have been based on the earlier experience of marketing the black and white series in the U.S.
