What: Based on the SNK video game series, martial artists Ryo and Robert get tangled up in a criminal diamond theft, and when Ryo's sister, Yuri is abducted, the two head off to rescue her.
The Good: Since this anime is based off a fighting game series, there will naturally be plenty of fights. A couple of them were quite nice, like Ryo vs. King. Also, there are a few comedic elements that might are funny.
The Bad: If you're a die-hard SNK fan, you break your copy of this anime. The story compared to the game is dramatically different. What is King doing?? ;_; Speaking of King, there are a few fights, the second half in particular, that look simply crappy, Robert vs. King for example. A far cry from fights in the first half.
The Bottom-Line: This is a prime candidate for MST3K-ing. I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone for full price. If you can find it cheap or something, pick it up and have a good laugh.
The Dub: This is an old dub. 'Nuff said.
