Shinpi no Sekai El-Hazard (TV)

I put this at dropped for after watching it whole some time ago I really disliked the series, not wishing to add to my collection. a very poor alternate version to a real masterpiece. Characters are changed and highly simplified, new pairings are made for no really valid reasons and nothing interesting is added, erasing what was already well done and making this childish and uninteresting.

All the drama and love is taken out, leaving a really poor and simplistic story. And the final episode is a very poor substitute to the beautiful end the original El Hazard has.

Funny is I saw this one first, and ... that made me look for the other iterations of this series, for the images I saw were not matching this anime.

I added a real masterpiece with El Hazard: The Magnificent World...

About Wanderers....I advise to stay away from it.

I wanted to like this, but it was simply too childish. Obviously, most anime is produced with children in mind, but much of it can provide something extra that adults can enjoy. This doesn't, at least not for me.
I TRIED so HARD to get into this anime. I saw some of it when I was younger from Hollywood video, and wanted to see the whole series, but it felt more like I was forcing myself to sit through it. It was very dull, like watching filler episode after filler episode, the plot was boring, the characters un-interestting. The worst thing an anime can be is ... boring or nothing. I just didnt like it at all.
this is to the orginal, what Tenchi Muyo, is to Tenchi Muyo: Ryo-Ohki. It's less original, simplified, contains more filler, and, in general aimed at a narrower, and much younger audience. If you loved the OVAs (the original El-Hazard), then you will probably want to watch this, but it's far from on-par with the original, and the characters and the world are different. A sub-standard parallel world, in a parallel world story.
This series and El Hazard: The Magnificent World, the direct to video project on which the TV series is based, tell the same story in alternate universes. The Magnificent World, however, is far more concise, dramatic, and less censored. And, if you liked the original El-Hazard, I suggest you try "Dual: Parallel Trouble Adventure," instead.
