English dub cast
In 1998 which was nearly a decade after the original Japanese release, The Ocean Group had gotten the rights to produce an English dub of the series and used an all-star Canadian voice cast, with the English dubbed episodes released on VHS tapes that were distributed by Pioneer Family Entertainment (which then became Geneon Universal which is now known as NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan as of today) in North America.
Unfortunately, only 12 out of 52 episodes were dubbed in English and the series was left on a cliffhanger, due to the poor quality of the dubbing. Episodes 2 and 3 have not been dubbed for the English-speaking market, thus having Episode 1 and 4 through 14 dubbed. On top of that, the episodes were edited heavily during production of the English adaptation dub, involving scenes cut and changed, as well as having the score entirely redone digitally, that was sampled with E-mu Proteus 2 Orchestra.
