Saga of Tanya The Evil: The Complete Series - DVD

'Saga of Tanya the Evil' ('Yōjo Senki') is an isekai (other world) series set that sees a Japanese businessman reincarnated as a little girl with high magical power in an alternate world to fight in a war that combines elements of World Was One and Two. This Complete Series collection contains the 12 episodes of the anime (there is a movie but, at the time of writing I do not believe it has been released in the UK) but with no special features on the DVD. The series is based on a series of light novels and, although I haven’t read them myself, I have heard that the anime deviates quite a bit from the source material, but it remains very entertaining.I am a big fan of the isekai genre, and 'Saga of Tanya the Evil' is one of my favourites with a good mixture of action and comedy alongside a few interesting characters and mostly good animation (although the CGI for the crowd scenes leaves a little to be desired). The Complete Series set includes both the English and Japanese and I personally think they are both just as good as each other. Of the English cast Monica Rial is easily the best of the bunch, giving a brilliant performance as Tanya herself, particularly in her speech after the credits of the final episode. The rest of the cast are almost as good, with Jeannie Tirado as Viktoriya and J. Michael Tatum as Erich von Rerugen being noteworthy. The action in the series is really good, with great areal choreography ad a little gore.The Complete Series DVD set lacks any special features and, unfortunately, also includes the unskippable FUNimation streaming service trailer on the first disc.Overall, I found this series to be highly enjoyable and while I do understand that many people probably wouldn’t like the tone or themes of the series, my own score would be a solid five stars.

Amazing

Everyone has already said what needs to be said about this anime, the only thing left to do is watch it, feel free to watch the "fansub" *wink wink* before supporting the creators with an official purchase if you're unsure, regardless this is a 5/5 from me.Here's hoping for an official release of the movie as well, which is also fantastic.

Alternate view of history with a psychotic young teen with magical powers who is also the reincarnation of a sociopathic office worker? Sound interesting? It is!The plot is fairly convoluted but is enjoyable non the less. The episodes have good animation and some comedic moments.Overall if you like your anime a bit off the wall this is one to watch.

One of my favorite anime! The packaging was very good and the quality was excellent!

Dont know if they make a habit of it but mine came early and without any problems

It goodIt also is English dubbed

The digital code is for a retired website. This is a scam, no way to talk to customer service as ineligible for return due to digital component.

Loved this series I purchased it as soon as I could afford it when it was released. The sheer psychotic nature or the Tanya character is just fantastic and I find it humorous at times. Definitely recommend. If it is something I have watched and then purchased after having downloaded it, it is something I can easily recommend to any fan of anime.

Echt sehenswert

Nuevamente me llegó el pedido en algunas horas después de hacerlo, excelente servicio. Gracias Amazon.“The saga of Tanya de Evil”, recuerdo cuando estaba siendo transmitida en simulcast no me atrajo en lo más mínimo. Luego vi “isekai quartet” y llamaron mi atención sus personaje, de modo que volví. ¡Wow! ¡Qué buen anime! La vi toda en una sentada, no pude parar. Es una pena que no incluya el largo metraje, pero, por lo demás no hay reproche. Video y audio excelentes, sí no incluye subtítulos en español, pero eso ya lo sabemos. Muy recomendable. ¡Saludos!

This is a review of the blu-ray edition of "The Saga of Tanya the evil". IThe series comes on two discs. There are some extras but really these are nothing special and can be safely ignored. I have not listened to the English soundtrack. I can't imagine anyone being able to reproduce the Japanese version Tanya's voice in any way that is satisfactory. The subtitles and Japanese soundtrack are great.The Plot - Tanya is a ten year old gril who fights for the army of the Empire against a motley collection of European enemies. She is a battle mage with extraordinary powers and a dark, cruel side which belies her charming, doll-like looks. Funny thing is Tanya has a secret. She's a Tokyo business man who is proud to claim a raft of personality disorders. When he is killed by an employee he has just fired god (Being X) saves him only to discover he's saved an unbeliever. Rather than a nice comfortable rebirth he is thrust into the world of the Empire so he can find belief.Tanya joins the Imperial army where her genius and power are recognised. When the war goes badly she forms a specialist mage unit which helps turn the tide but her methods are borderlime. The action is great, the links to 20th century history and international law are well done. Tanya should lose but you have to root for the girl. GO Tanya go!Commentary - This is an Isekai and in particular it reminded me of Re:Life particularly around the idea of experience leading to a form of rebirth. The rewriting of World War 1 and World War 2 military and politiical history and the investigation of international law add a depth of thought to this which is very unusual and much appreciated.This is really about Tanya. Her character is undoubtedly over done but it works. The action is great and the plot leads you through the series so well. Evil was never so much fun.Summary - Go Tanya go. Evil was never so much fun. This shouldn't be so much fuun. Tanya should be a villain, but she isn't. This is very enjoyable and thought provoking (if you let it be). It reminds me of anime from the 80s, 20s and noughties. It's more realistic, not set in a high school and has an emotional depth and clarity of thought behind it that haven't been seen in current anime in a long time.If you like this you might like: Jin Roh, Bento, Bubblegum Crisis 2048, Goku, Mad Bull.

肝心の中身が見たければこれで十分です。この値段で英語版も楽しめます。
