Yeah, her name would be written like 電光 in kanji...following the romanization system used a lot in the 70s/80s, it could be written in English as "Denkoh". The word literally comes out as "lightning", and I know the Japanese versions of the 1963 and 1980 anime use the same word "Denko" for their versions of the robot.

YES, Fauna. Your snark keeps me sane here.

I like some of the dub music better than the original soundtrack. But I think they should've put the dub and the original music together. But anyway I love both versions.

Is it true that they only subbed episodes 1 to 24? As I cannot seem to get my hands on anything subbed after episode 24, since I cannot stand the English dubbed version, it is all back to front.

actually the Korean set contains subbed eps for 1 - 25, excluding #20. Who knows why no set 2 was ever made. :cry:

I bought the whole set online. It has English, Chinese, and Malaya subs. Not sure if it legit though. It works. :shifty:
