Editorial Review:

These six episodes form the second sequel to the 1975 Tekkaman TV series. Ten years after the end of the first sequel, SK Tekkaman Blade, Earth is still at war with the Radam. The only effective weapon against these aliens are the Space Knights, who fight in armored mecha suits. Klutzy blonde Yumi Francois is the newest trainee, and a computer accident gives her the power to use the latest super-weapon, Reactor Voltekker. This power feeds into the standard rivalries and frustrated attractions that occur among the Space Knights between high-tech battles. The key conflict pits D-Boy, the hero of the previous series, against Dead End, the suicidal transvestite survivor of a group of Tekkaman rebels. Blade II feels like a longer plot that was severely compressed: the story ends before it really begins. Unrated; suitable for ages 16 and up: Nudity, violence (mostly between robots), alcohol use, sexual innuendoes. --Charles Solomon

3 out of 5 stars tekkaman blade 2 is weak.......2005-06-25

I don't speak english very well so please forgive me.I am from Puerto Rico and i recently buy the original version of Tekkaman Blade uncut with all 49 episodes and in japenese audio with english subtitles in a small video club I don't know how they founded but I must say that is much better than Tekkaman Blade 2.If you want to see how the story continues it's okay but don't expected to be as good because is weaker in a lot of aspects like the plot and the colors are too pink.The original is much more dark and the story is a lot better.

5 out of 5 stars Tekkaman Blade 2 Rocks.......2005-06-02

Ok since I've read the other reviews I thought I write one, and make things a lot clearer.


First off the reason why Tekkaman Blade 2 is so different from Teknoman is because it's the original UNCUT version. And since it's the original version - all of the character names and even the title is different.


Teknoman as most people would call it was once on UPN many years ago. Teknoman is a awfully EDITED version of Tekkaman Blade. Tekkaman Blade is the original title. Also many names of the characters were changed for the edited version. When Tekkaman Blade was edited to Teknoman- many footage was edited out. This ruined the show. Tekkaman Blade wasn't ment to be edited.



Tekkaman Blade 2 stayed to the original, and is by far 100 % better then Teknoman. Or I should say Tekkaman Blade and Tekkaman Blade 2 are better then Teknoman.

Sadly there is no way to see Tekkaman Blade (Teknoman) uncut. So there's only Tekkaman Blade 2.

5 out of 5 stars A great end to the series.......2005-05-14

For those of us who saw "Teknoman" on UPN 11 years ago (yes is has been a while), or the original Tekkaman Blade, Tekkaman Blade II comes as a great addition to the series. I highly recommed it to anyone for their anime collection (especially for fans of Guyver and Evangelion).

5 out of 5 stars Tekkaman & teknoman.......2004-04-13

Teknoman on tv is one of my favorite shows. Tekkaman blade II is suppose to be ten years later. But their was errors in tekkaman that is not the same as teknoman.
1. the white teknoman had pegus not the female they did not say how she got it.
Tekkaman is good but teknoman was better in my view. I hope one day soon to see the original on dvd.
I think of them as two fine and different show.
The action is good the story is not as good as teknoman.
I link the improved weapon the teknovolter (sorry about the spellng). It is cool.
I Would like to see more of this series so we can see how all of it happened, but if you take this is new you can enjoy it.
It is worth getting for the action. The story of black sunday is cool as well.
Lets all e-mail as many people as we can to get teknoman on dvd.

1 out of 5 stars Misserable.......2004-02-11

I read the reviews about this but since I am a die hard fan of Teknoman or Tekkaman Blade, I thought, it just could not be so bad. However I was wrong. First of all, it is not the same producer who made Teknoman, meaning the drawings are off, and the caracters do not feel the same. What is even more disturbing is that in Teknoman, you get to know the caracters as Blade and as Star, where as in this DVD Star is going by a different name and Blade is constantly referred to as D-Boy, which is not a very manly name at all. They should have taken the names from the original series, even though those names were not the original Japanese names but in translation - who cares? Those names we were used to. Apart from that, Blade hardly shows up and then there is no longer any emotional conflict of any sorts. Something that made the original series so special. A few highlights are Dead End and David but even those two cannot really bring up the rating. All in all, the first impression of this DVD was pink. There are way to many colors and the most dominant one is pink. How can you have pink in an action / drama anime?
Just simply, please even though you might be curious just like me and a die hard fan of Teknoman, please resist the urge to buy this. It is definitely not worth a cent.
