That looks like an american cartoon.

That's the whole point with PSG ,animation is based on western cartoons like Powerpuff girls ,but there are few scenes where you can see japanese animation like the transformation scene at 0:40 but as I said 95% of anime is in western animation.

I always thought that PSG would be better in English -- ever since I first saw it. I can't wait! :D

As I said in the previous thread, PSG is going to need a FLCL quality dub and translation for it to work in the slightest. I very much enjoyed the series, but a direct translation isn't going to work here. I'm very much aware of the fact that the language barrier made PSG much easier to digest. They need to deviate quite a bit from the original script to make it palatable.

I didn't really think anyone would License the anime,I can't wait for the dub,that and I'm so buying the DVD when it comes out ^^

I'm pretty sure PSG's popularity shot past the level of "hidden gem" a long time ago.

Really hoping this gets a BD release, I ditched DVD some time back and don't plan on returning to the format.

The rare instance I'll actually buy some dvds, really want a season 2! Go ahead and keep hating btw, this show's a hidden gem.
