  AAW: Space Adventure Cobra Review
Cobra isn't exactly sure what to make of this whole mess, but he's never been one to turn a pretty girl (or three) down (even if they are being followed around by a weird guy in a floating bubble called Dr. Topolov), and he's got a bone to pick with old Crystal Boy anyway.
Cobra embodies the whole retro/sleaze theme: He wears red spandex, has funny hair, a fast spaceship, a robotic partner, lots of women, and never goes into a fight without his stogie.
Space Adventure Cobra is an old theatrical movie based on a manga series by Buichi Terasawa (creator of Midnight Eye Goku).

Jane and her sisters are actually the last remaining princesses of a long-dead race, and one of them has fallen in love with Crystal Boy, endangering an entire galaxy in the process.

 Space Adventure Cobra
This graphic novel tells the story of Cobra, a notorious space pirate wanted both by the law and by many rival pirates.
Accompanied by his sidekick android named Lady, Cobra cruises around the galaxy in his spaceship, taking on random assignments that usually involve the acquisition/retrieval/theft of a precious item or alien artifact.
Cobra's gentlemanly manners, roguish looks, and his ways with women are rather reminiscent of Connery's James Bond and Moore's Simon Templar.

 Anime Reviews: Space Adventure Cobra
Cobra is a smirking, musclebound rebel with a large gun for a left arm and the biggest bounty in the universe on his head.
As Jane understands it, Crystal Boy is holding one of her two identical sisters prisoner, and only Cobra has the weaponry, the experience and the studied nonchalance under fire to smash his way into the ultra-high-security floating prison and break her out.
This sprawling 1982 sex-and-lasers space fantasy, the spiritual sister of Barbarella, has a very high cheese factor but can be fun if taken in the right spirit--specifically, the spirit of 1981's Heavy Metal.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
"Space Adventure Cobra is a fast moving, stylish and furiously inventive film from the director of Golgo 13 and penned by classic Manga Writer Buichi Terasawa.
A galaxy-spanning James Bond-ish space adventure, in which space pirate Cobra, already hunted by the Justice Federation and with a large price on his head, falls foul of the Galactic Guild, a vast criminal organization headed up by the deathly cyborg Lord Necron.
One's main quibble is that the stocky yellow-haired Cobra is hardly the most charismatic of heroes, and as he seems indestructible, it's hard to care a whole lot about what happens to him or the pneumatic fantasy bimboes he is trying to save.

 Dark Star - Anime Reviews: Space Adventure Cobra   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
From much-admired (in some circles) creator Buichi Terasawa, this insubstantial SF space opera succeeds as jolly entertainment of the pulp variety but achieves little else.
Cobra is the most-wanted criminal in the galaxy but he's too busy planning his next scam and chasing females to worry too much about that.
Potential viewers shouldn't expect realism from this, it is most definitely a cartoon, and no apologies are required for that.

 ++| A M V - Video Information
My mind then wandered to the opening sequence of the film Space Adventure Cobra, in which some of the ocean scenes had a similar tint.
He meets three of the most beautiful women he's ever seen, and loses them in horrible ways, and some betrayal does take place in the film, and so the script and direction of the vid started to take a good form, and I had about 80% mapped out by the time I got home.
I still feel he is the most American director in the anime industry, in that most of his works do not come off looking like a manga to me. I'd ideally like to do AMVs from some of his other works, which led me to my next project.

 Space Adventure Cobra
His nemesis is the weapons-running, drug-smuggling Guild, a Mafia-like organization of villains controlling all crime across the galaxy.
The stories vary, of course, from the short pointless filler, to the slam-bang action mission, to the multi-volume epic spanning worlds and dimensions.
Time and again, Cobra is joined by his various friends and allies, all with their own unique abilities, and what would otherwise be an episodic series takes on a wholeness that sets it apart.

 Space Adventure Cobra - AAW Comment Submissions
But I also saw 14 years ago the TV series Space Adventure Cobra, and it was excelent, the best anime I have ever seen.
It is both a spoof of the ultimate sci-fi adventure and the ultimate sci-fi adventure at the same time.
Space Adventure Cobra has the ultimate hero, the ultimate heroine (not only is Jane Flowers drawn gorgeously, but has the ultimate kiss), the ultimate villian (the undead Lord Necron who cannot be killed by objects of this world), and the ultimate drama (to save the galaxy from destruction).

 Anime Jump :: We put the 'dumb' in anime fandom!
Space Adventure Cobra had the all too demure Jane Flower and her identical twin sisters, but they don't even come close to the hilarity of the girls in Goku.
He's not the invincible sex mo-sheen that Cobra is-- in fact, he tends to have pretty rotten luck with women.
Kawajiri doesn't have the noir-ish elegance of Osamu Dezaki (who directed Cobra), but his style still suits Goku immensely-- the characters look great, the city is towering and gloomy, and all of the action that Madhouse are known for are there.

 Slightlydark.com Forums - Update -- Cobra II Original Super Soundtracks
Cobra 2 (Space Adventure Cobra 2) is a PC-Engine game, with a soundtrack that's rather short, but interesting, if perhaps a bit cheesy.
However, this CD is nearly impossible to find, because the CD only came out in very few examples at the time, and, even with the limited amount of interest with it, it will still cost you 60 euros minumum (that is, if you manage to find it).
Concerning the booklet (excluding the titles of the soundtracks) you will find about a dozen drawings of the Cobra girls 1 and covers from the 1st japanese edition of Cobra, which greatly enhances the package.
