Well this is a surprise and totally random for what appears to be a really old series. I remember buying an artbook of this not too long ago because it looked like a rare find, still on the shelf, and watched a few episodes but seems like an obscure series to make more content of.

The manga is a reboot of the original series penned by Rui Takatou (Mikarun X, Tetsuman: Tekken Comic). Chapter one will be released next month. https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1848762


...yeah not sure if I like the sound of that at all as I'm still charmed by Akari after all these years. Still even listen to her theme song from the OST and frequent her wallpaper on my PC.

Besides that would of prefered if they'd just did an alternate world setting or something not a reboot...

Would appreciate it if they either toned down or got rid of it completely the yuri tone, could do without that pointless sh*t and keep it friendly or put in some males for them to interact with like in the OVA if want that vanilla relationship. If they can make it more intense then the original I'm in. The preview image doesn't appeal to me at all compared to the TV series. At least give it some love with the character details, smh.

Till then Akari make room for me in your Akari cardboard house I'm not expecting much from this.

very surprised! the yuri tone didn't bother me for the original series. it's not like it was pervy fan-service galore with anime now-a-days.

the preview image didn't appeal to me either.

I would prefer this one gives full blown yuri instead of just undertones.

I planned to watch the older shows for years now I finally have a reason to do so. I hope they resurrect some other oldie but goodie anime from their graves for example a new Saber Marionette reboot would sure make me happy.

I remember the old one, there were two versions already, why not a third? Although the way they handled a certain character in one of them did not sit well with me AT ALL and for a far future society really screamed 20th century thoughts about gender and sexuality.

If they do keep that one character being a certain way I really hope they do it much better, or else I am not watching.

I’m surprised that AIC isn’t credited for "animation production", as the IP is owned by AIC Rights. Even though, AIC doesn't have a animation department anymore, since 2016, as they outsource the actual animation work to other studios. And... the animation looks kinda cheap, but that's to be expected with Seven.

Key visual looks ugly... and studio Seven is much more famous for hentai than for TV anime. Not up with this one

There were actually plans to produce a new Saber Marionette anime in 2015, titled the "Re:Anime Project", after Hiroshi Negishi's Animation Innovation Content Project (AIC Project) acquired the IP in 2015, with plans for it to air in 2016. As of now, AIC Project's tradename has been changed to Saber Project, and their hasn't been any news since, about the "Re:Anime Project". The only new news about Saber Project, that I'm aware of, is that they established a subsidiary called "Saber Direct", which focuses on merchandise and comics.

Quick side note: AIC Project is not related to Anime International Company (AIC), besides licensing the AIC brand from AIC. Reasons for the company name to be changed to Saber Project is unknown, but probably it was to avoid brand confusion. Although, Hiroshi Negishi and Toru Miura are still on good terms.

Knowing the story of this studio when they try to make non hentai shows, it always ends in failure. Galaxy Tylor, King's Game and Try Knights are clear examples that they don't know how to do a good job in stuff that isn't fucking or having tits around

I will enjoy this, as my standards to enjoy battle arena tournament shows are somewhere between non-existent, dumpster fire and less than zero.
It boggles my mind that this is being remade more than 20 years later. I cannot understand.

Edit: I ran the OG 26 episode TV show back and was surprised at how much I appreciated it now in 2021. I remember watching it 20 years ago and enjoying it and sort of just assumed it was a trashy show I liked when I was a kid. It isn't a smart show, nor is it trying to be, but it also is not trashy at all.

OG show is very 90s. The characters that exist in Battle Athletes Daiundoukai would not populate an anime made in 2021. The lead of Akari Kansaki is heavily influenced by Sailor Moon's Usagi, and there is nary a tsundere to be found in this all female cast. A lot of the characters are just national caricatures.

I'm glad this remake caused me to rewatch OG and revisit my assumption that it was some forgettable guilty pleasure from my past.

Akari House was worth remembering.

I watched the first tv anime, I don't know how I managed to watch it entirely but it was really bad, I'm not sure if this is popular in japan or something like that but I don't get the point behind this "remake", I'll check the first episode but I'm not gonna watch one more episode if it doesn't look good.

Seems it's a reboot of the original. Hard to know for sure since just 1 episode. Music is so so compared to the original.

All I can say for now.

God! What did they do to this series? The Original was fun and happy series this remake is questionable with all drama, bombing, dark tones (Generic slavery, bombings, refugees).

Seriously after watching the first episode of reboot for nostalgic reason, I find that it is a complete trainwreck / snoozefest and terrible character building with all over the place pacing, terribile animation, unlikable/ unrelatable mc.

It has nothing that makes a sport anime good.

Then I just open the old Battle Athletes Victory ep1 and rewatch again.
Holy moly, this is good. My fund memory of the original serie is not only nostalgic.
The OP instantly click, and the initial match alone built great tension and characterization.


All this terrible reboot does is make me want to rewatch the whole original serie again.
Seriously, just go watch the original serie if you missed it.
Drop this hot garbage reboot.

Well more power to him lol..
If the original is bad then this reboot is like big dump.
Some people rate down anime just cuz they are not used to the older anime artstyle lolz.
Even though the animation is way better than many modern seasonal anime with so much cut corner and zoom in face.
