Anyone else remember this anime for Wizard of Oz? I have memories of at one point owning a vhs for it when I was little, and if I recall it wasn't too bad
Anyone else remember this anime for Wizard of Oz? I have memories of at one point owning a vhs for it when I was little...

I think it was edited into a movie and I think I watched that in school in fifth grade but I'm not sure. Since getting into the books I've been meaning to give the series a real watch.
Jaxon Miller
I haven't seen Oz, but I did see Puss in the Boots when I was a kid, and it was excellent. Still is.
Really old-ass anime thread, I guess?
Benjamin Brooks
oh wow I never saw that when I was a kid, it looks like it has a whole lot going on!
Adam Morales
I think it covered more than one book.
Matthew Brooks
yeah looks like it covers 4 books over 52 episodes, not too bad a spread to be honest
Jaxon Smith
I think I do. wasn't there some second part with some kind of slug?
Andrew Myers
could that big fellow be who you're thinking of? A slug doesn't really stick out but there were a good few monsters if I recall, it's been so long since I've watched the VHS
Noah Thomas
No I remember that one, but there was a giant slug they had to stop or something...
Isaiah Lopez
apparently I'm not that wrong, but it seems images of it are gone from the internet or never made it into it.
>Back at the underground kingdom of the Nomes, an Invasion specialist named Guph suggests that in order to conquer the Emerald City they must make an underground tunnel which will take them to the Emerald City. Along with Guph's Giant Dirt-Devouring Worm, the Nomes make the tunnel and pass underneath the 'Deadly' Desert.
Daniel Morgan
since we're on the topic of old anime, had a VHS of this when I was little too, didn't watch it a whole lot growing up but I watched a couple episodes recently and it's pretty cute
Adrian Powell
oh wow, I wonder if I don't remember that because they cut it out of the american vhs, seems like something that would stick out
Nathan King
Maybe, it was fairly creepy looking from what I remember and for the age I must have been. but I remember it was a full arc so maybe they never made it all the way there in the us.
Benjamin Lopez
the monster that really sticks out to me was a couple that looked like 2 huge fat mountain lions and they defeat them by having them walk on logs over a rushing river and they fall in

Apparently the show's on youtube! here's the giant worm. Also get back to the start of the video for some 80s CG Kansas:

Asher Gomez
oh wow! Thank you for finding this! That CG isnt actually too bad, and that worm is pretty menacing, I can see why you found it creepy as a kid!

theres the big ol cat monsters, looks like they were meant to be a mix of tigers and bears
Adam Perez
>That CG isnt actually too bad, and that worm is pretty menacing, I can see why you found it creepy as a kid!
I wasn't hating on it, I'm just amazed that a show had CG that early on. and that it was used for a Kansas farm flyover of all things.
Easton Hill
Oh I didn't think ya were, I just wanted to remark about it, it really is interesting they went to all that work for an opening instead of recycling the original op with a new song
Lincoln Walker
Oh my word, I remember this. It definitely covered more than the movie did. I also remember one for Robin Hood where Marian was a blonde chick who cut her hair short and wanted to kill king John because of something I can't remember.
Nathaniel Cruz
>giant worm
Holy shit now I remember this show too.
Justin Anderson
Was it rape?
Jaxon Peterson
This cartoon has some really unsettling stuff around despite being a kid's show.
Tin Man is choking a bitch now
Xavier Hughes
It's surprisingly more engaging than I would have thought or remembered. I might watch it with some young family members if they enjoy it.
Michael Taylor
I'm watching ep 52 right now and the gnomes driven by emerald greed are currently drowning right now.
Grayson Lee
Is emerald greed like jungle fever?
Carter Jenkins
Gnome King is an asshole
Ethan Sanchez
You decide: youtu.be
