going back to my childhood

Discussion about Japanese anime/manga and manga arose quite a few time during the last 2 weeks and as a friend just posted a video that brought me back to my childhood on facebook I though I would do this entry. (as most of my stay is anyway related to dance it's not that interesting to blog about and I will probably just make one or 2 entries about the trip later)

So let's go through a few French themes for some well known anime (at least in France, as some like Saint Seiya seems kinda unknow to youngest Japanese).
If now most anime use the original Japanese songs that wasn't the case about 15 years ago when I was looking at those anime's on Wednesday afternoon/during the week-end.
Most of the times names were changed too

Nicky Larson (City Hunter)

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlbEzMft6IY
Some facts:
-Ryo Saeba is called Nicky Larson in French.
-All Host clubs, bars,... are referenced as vegetarian restaurants (so Shinjuku must be the place in the woirld with most vegetarian restaurants in the world )
-The bad guys only have 3 names: Robert, Roger and Raoul.

Olive et Tom (Captain Tsubasa)

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcWzBiwsPy8&feature=related

Tsubasa is here called Olivier Aton
As for Tom it's actually the goalkeeper that actually disappear quite fast and if I'm not mistaken doesn't appear that often.

Les chevaliers du Zodiaques (Saint Seiya) (1st theme)

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USiBtiqjM4o&feature=related

Ranma 1/2

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAEh4bm-t94&feature=related

Ranma is the only one to keep is original name. Akane becomes Adeline,....

Bioman (super Sentai season whatever, if I'm not mistaken)

Theo ou la batte de la victoire (Touch)

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTnY8Dz3Aiw&feature=related

Juliette, Je t'aime (Maison Ikkoku)

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-98nh5Ejt4

And last (for this entry, but not least) Goldorak UFOロボグレンダイザー

first theme

Since I began dancing in 2007, I want to dance at every single moment. Be it house dance or hip Hop (New Style), I just can't stop dancing. Of course, I'm not forgetting about popping and locking though I'm not learning those at the moment. But I'm a huge fans of groups like Hilti & Bosch, Co-Thkoo, Umin,....
Be ready to see me at Juste Debout 2009 (in the audience, of course :-D)

Besides dance my other love is wushu. I've been practicing it in and out for years (but I'm still very bad at it as I can't seem to find time to train seriously although it's far better now).

I really enjoy to learn new languages. I currently speak French, English, Dutch (still learning) and Japanese (still learning) and the next on the list will be Mandarin.
