Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

JOHANNES CABAL THE NECROMANCER

[personal profile] soulcontracts 2013-04-04 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
There are FOUR casts in games now - Asgard, Adstring, Somarium, and Exitvoid. All different Johanneses! This is amazing.

[personal profile] cabalistic 2013-04-04 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
That is so awesome to see. I'm glad this canon is getting more love. I have a Cabal account currently in Vatheon but I'm not sure if it's a good fit for him fff. Needs more Leonie and Horst though~
soulcontracts: (☠ what do you want)

[personal profile] soulcontracts 2013-04-04 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my god, fantastic. FIVE Cabals in games - I am so glad this fandom is gaining more momentum! :)

We have Johannes, Horst, Leonie, and Ninuka over in Asgard. I am spoiled rotten.

SPACE ADVENTURE COBRA

Pretty sure I'll be forever alone, but WHY NOT. This is a fun campy little sci-fi series I would recommend if you like old anime. I only just got into it the beginning of this year, and I really wish I had sooner.

Because sharing is caring...

Here is the original manga in English, although this isn't complete. I think more chapters have been translated into French but it's difficult to find online.

There's an animated series that follows the original manga fairly closely, although there are some subtle differences. It runs in 31 episodes, easily torrentable, or can be found here in Spanish.

There was only ever one "pilot" episode dubbed into English and it's incredibly difficult to find. There is a Spanish fan-dub here. The pilot is interesting! It rehashes stuff from the other episodes, but there's also a lot of new animation done specifically for it. They completely changed the story around (it's very Star Wars-esque, even mentions of "The Dark Side Clan" as the main antagonists). It's pretty quality animation (especially the scenes with Cobra sliding down the pole or trying to escape Vaiken's laser shots) for a promotional piece that ultimately and unfortunately never went anywhere.

As the other anon linked, there's that retsupurae of the Sega Saturn game which is fun, if you like text adventure games in the style of Snatcher or Policenauts. It follows the manga closely in the beginning, up until Cobra and Jane escape, and then the story diverts unto its own.

There's a movie which loosely follows the manga... which is honestly more like watching an acid trip than a movie. Then there's then two OVAs that came out in 2008 as a sequel to the first animated series, called The Psychogun (4 episodes) and Time Drive (2 episodes), which can be found easily in Japanese and French on youtube. They did this as part of Cobra's 30th anniversary, and updated the style and animation consequently.

After that, there's a scant 13 episodes that run in that new style, which can be viewed here. Supposedly there's going to be a live action movie coming out this year but I haven't heard any details about it since.

Buichi's official website also has a couple of flash comics which are very pretty to look at.
