Anything about Ronin Warriors / Yoroiden Samurai Troopers that does not fit with the subcategories I have.

Cale voice actor character mashup

by

So Mirror and Image have got me into My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I realized in the latest episode that, “Heeey.. I know that screaming yell..” Yup Matt Hill’s voice was used for Soarin. (Hey I’m a Warlord fan, remember? I would remember every time Ryo cried out. :P)

Anyway while looking at the voices actors for MLP:FIM I found another name I recognized. Richard Newman. He plays the voice of Cranky Doodle Donkey. He also was the primary voice actor for Cale.

So while chatting with Mirror and Image about mash ups of the characters between the fandoms, they drew me a quick sketch of Cranky in the Armor of Darkness. I went ahead and commissioned for a completed work.

Ronin Warriors Complete Collection box set rant

by

Note: Original rant about Complete Collection set (release date September 28, 2004) has been condensed down. (It was originally a 2 part rant on my old website.)

Ronin Warriors Complete Collection

First of all, it’s not really a box. It’s a slip cover with 4 sides. It goes over the DVD set. Second, they changed the DVDs to slim cases. Anyone who bought the DVD volumes separately have no hopes of purchasing a box to house their collection in now.

I was also surprised at what seemed like the lack of effort to put a quality box set together. Just to give you fans an idea, here are some pictures of the Japanese box sets.

Included with the set(s):

Now those are quality box sets! Why couldn’t we have that?!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad a box set is finally out. I know a few people who have been waiting for it. It will probably create more fans of the series. I just wish it was done differently, more like the Japanese version.
