The Japanese version of X-Men the Animated Series has one of the coolest cartoon intros ever. Ever. [JapanWTF]

If you've ever seen X-Men the Animated Series, you know that it has a pretty standard American superhero cartoon intro with bland, yet dramatic music and some leaping about, but nothing that really gets you super excited. The Japanese version on the other hand is straight up fucking awesome. If I had a metal band, every one of my videos would involve Magneto summoning aliens out of the ground like that.

For comparison, here's the American version. Laaaaame.

ima be honest

I still like the original better...makes more sense(?)...most likely no one will agree with me, so suck it IHC (in advance)

You fucking mo-mo, what's the matter with you?

yeah, but no matter how cool

yeah, but no matter how cool they make her look, jubilee still sucks. at least the American opening's honest - "What's she doing there, making fireworks? Is that IT?!" "...yes."

Spot on.

What, like you're so great?

I miss that show

I used to love that show! I think the american version is sweet too bro. Though the jap version is abit more badass looking I'd go with the original too just for nostalgia's sake. I may have to try and find the old cartoon torrent lying around somewhere for download.

The Original theme music is boss

The music from the original is great n nostalgic and all ... but was it me or were the X-men mostly fighting aliens in the japanese one.. that 1st vid was mostly all aliens it seemed.

Lies!

I have yet to see a marvel cartoon intro that can be classed as lame, even down to the old school Spiderman cartoons.

Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

Don't be a hater, Private

Don't be a hater, Private Punishment.  It's true, you know the fucking Japanese one is better.  It doesn't make sense, we dropped the bomb on them, but they got the better culture.  Fuck this.

More asians please.

He's right

You definitely need to get out of the house and find a woman. It's Corporal Punishment. As in that Marine will fuck your shit up for calling him Pvt.

Fuck that guy.. He's a

Fuck that guy.. He's a private in my book.. also a faggot.

jackass

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuullshit. just because his handle says he's a corporal doesnt mean he is, and his blatantly disrespectful attitude earned him a little reciprocal disrespect, just like yours, dickface. i notice you both took the time to check this site, look at what's posted and then tell total strangers to go find women...

and we're the ones who need to get out of the house?

What, like you're so great?

I'm well aware of what his name is.  Why is it that you always act like a prick when you comment?  This isn't youtube.

More asians please.

The American version is

The American version is better, if only to take me back to a happy childhood time of quietness in my home while my parents were sleeping off binges.  Ahhh...memories.

No one here

has probably even seen the japanese version beyond this little opening vid.

I don't accept that something is better for nostalgia.  Thats a cop out.  There are a shit ton of things I liked as a kid and then I looked back later and wanted to smack myself silly for wasting time with that shit.

The American version of Xmen is one of those things.  Its cool cause its Xmen, but seriously, the story wasnt great and the animation.

I would love to give the jap versiona try, it looks like an improvement to me, though you really cant judge a show by its into.

Professor X is such a pimp!
