monkey magic rpg

‘In the worlds before Monkey, Primal Chaos reigned. Heaven sought order. But the Phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four world's formed again and yet again, as endless aeons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of heaven, the moisture of the Earth, the powers of the sun and the moon worked upon a certain rock, old as creation. And it became magically fertile. That first egg was named "Thought". Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha, said "With our thoughts we make the world". Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it then came a stone monkey. The nature of Monkey was irrepressible.'

Monkey! DVD Box Set of Series 1 is released on the 29th of March 2004

Weirdly Monkey was translated into English by a man who spoke no japanese or even knew it was japanese, deciding it was best to fill it with comedy and inuendo....

I expect our Monkey! may be quite... different... :shock:
 
Maybe even MORE naughty! :twisted:
i finished reading my unabridged copy of Journey to the West. What a ride! :lol:

There's an excellent retrospective on Monkey in this months SFX Magazine...in it they mention that there were 50-odd episodes, but only 39 were dubbed into English.

Due to the series continuing cult popularity, they are now preparing to redub the missing episodes for DVD release; with all the same actors, except for the narrator who is, sadly, no longer with us.

So there. :)

Double so...

50 hours of Monkey! and when this post started they laughed at us.... we laughed at us... and I laughed at myself... but we showed us, by god ...we ....showed us! :?
 
I'm not sure, and don't have my copy of SFX to hand...you should pick it up if you're into sci-fi / cult tv & movies, is an interesting read; available at all good newsagents...NOW!

:lol:
