Ronin Warr.Ova Vol.1

This is the story of how Sage has gone missing when he went to New York. The fact that he doesn't show up for Ryo's 16th birthday party worries the other four. When they go to New York, Kento and Rowen go head to head against Sage's armor! But the odd thing is, Sage isn't in it!. They meet a girl named Runa, and together, the six have to find Sage and rescue him without falling victim to the same thing!

The Legend of the Inferno armor is the best. (I love both of them, but this one is just amazing)The five armors are pulling the five Ronins to battle. The Ronins face off against the warroir Mukala. He is without armor and wields only a large boomerang, but he still whipps the all four of them,and then kidnapps Ryo and Sage! Cye seems to have lost the will to fight and leavs, so it's up to Mia, Kento, Yuli, and Rowen to find Ryo and Sage and bring them home safely. Which is harder than it sounds. The clash of the Inferno armors is going to be more difficult than anyone could have imagined.

The voices have all changed in their own way, not much on some, a lot on others. Ryo, Rowen's and Cye's all are pretty much the same. Kento and Sage, well, that's another story. Michael Donnovan only voices Cye in this. Sage is voiced by someone else and I personally like it! :) Kento sound way different. It's kind of hard to explain. He still speaks the same way, but his voice has changed incredibly. Everything that they messed up on the TV sieries has been fixed(ie. Sage's kanji is now grace, and Rowen's is now Wisdom). It's an excellent DVD, and I think all Ronin freaks, like me, should see it!:)

Good Point!! Cye has a TON of dialog in 'Inferno'!! Which I *ahem* am profoundly grateful for. :) Even if he does go berserk on Rowen and Kento.

Bad Point!! Changing Ryo's Name, Surekill and switching the original virtues from the series. Okay, I know it makes it more correct... But, if it's been wrong the whole 39 episodes, after 20+ years.... LEAVE IT WRONG!! Please!! It just doesn't sound right after being so used to hearing it the other way! 'Rio'? 'Fury of Wildfire'?? (And Mukara's name too... 'Mukala'??)

Good Point!! BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION!... Whoa. I think it's even better then the series animation...!! The guys just look so much nicer! (Not so blocky.) These stories have a lot more depth then just "Enemy appears= Fight= Ryo has mental break down= Ronin's win= Happy Ending". It's goes more into their lives.

Semi-bad Point!! If you're used to the Japanese version of these movies, the English versions seem to have a much slower pace.

Great Plots, Cool Bad Guys, Great Animation, Cye has more then half a dozen lines.... I think Bandai did I really great job on this DVD!! Many thanks!!
