The Mysterious Cities of Gold Season 2

(1/6) > >>

DJ Omnimaga:
This isn't really an anime anymore since it's no longer co-produced by Japan, but only France this time, but since the original series was both anime and cartoon, I decided to put this here.

Anyway it seems Season 2 of MCOG2 will finally come to fruition, after a few years of wondering what happened to the project. I'm happy to see that the original character designs are kept, although Mendoza changed a bit and Kokapelt's parrot voice is way different, so it might take a while to get used to, but it looks quite great and despite the addition of special effects and some 3D graphics, it still seems to remain true to Season 1 graphically. I was a bit disappointed at the new Condor cockpit, though, which seems less detailled. I hope there will be some music besides the opening song that will grab some elements from the original season, though. So far it seems that most background music is way different than in the 1982 series, although I guess that can be understood considering they might try to put it to today's standard.

Anyway you can watch the preview below with English subtitles and I hope the story and content will match the previous season released 30 years ago:



From what I gather, season 2 will air this Summer, 30 years after Season 1, but I saw rumors about 2013 too. Season 3 would be the year afterward and 4 the next one after 3. Each new season are supposed to feature 2 cities of gold (the 1982 season featured 1)

In comparison, here are some clips and songs from season 1, to compare with season 2 above:

By the way, have you ever noticed this reference (see spoiler) in Pokemon Crystal ? ;)
Spoiler For Spoiler:
Back on topic, I never really got into this show, but I am still glad they didn't change everything :)
I hate when they do that, it kills all the spirit of the show.

DJ Omnimaga:
Is that really inside the game? O.O

And yeah I agree. But this show's spirit is a lot the music, which makes it even more special. It would kinda suck if the entire show became with standard movie/cartoon music. But of course I guess it will inevitably be a bit different than MCOG1 because season 1 was released at a time where music synthetisers started emerging and becoming popular. I wish they would re-use the remade versions of the songs for some parts of the show. http://citesdor.com/musiques/musiques_boub.php3
