This series was the jewel of Nickelodeon’s television programming in the 1980’s and became a cult classic. It was previously released on DVD in Quebec and France in the early 2000’s and Japan a few years later. It is now set for a long overdue US release with excellent special features.
I speculate that the success of bootleg copies of the series may have contributed to it finally being released on DVD in English speaking countries just like what happened with the series Sea Quest DSV.
The series also includes a music soundtrack by Haim Saban and Shuki Levy recorded with synthesizers which is worthy of a Grammy and an Emmy. This soundtrack is better than most movie soundtracks and has been released on LP and CD over the decades.
I am ecstatic about this release and will be buying both editions. It is a show that people who watched it growing up will want their kids to see. I watched this all the time when it was on Nickelodeon in the 80’s and am glad it is getting the release it deserves.
After 20 years of waiting, its finally here.
The Mysterious Cities of Gold is a show most of children would have seen on Nickelodeon in the mid-80’s. A rare collaboration between French writers and Japanese animators (overseen by none other than Hayao Miyazaki himself), it combined strong characters with rich artwork, and set it all in a more or less historically accurate 15th century Meso-America. 39 episodes in length, this series tells one continuous story, told primarily from the viewpoint of the show’s three main child characters.
Along their journey, these children demonstrate the virtues of love, friendship, kindness, and self-sacrifice, without any of the artificial constructs normally placed into such stories. They learn and grow, becoming deeper, more mature people as they explore and come in contact with real South American cultures, which are painted in a positive light. The primary antagonists are the invading Spaniards, seeking to look the new world’s gold for their own profit.
From a decade where everything was a glorified half-hour toy commercial, the Mysterious Cities of Gold stood out due to it’s emphasis on story telling and character development. And, unlike other series of it’s time, when the story ends, so does the series. No attempt was made to milk this show for every last penny, it has a definite start, middle, and end, so there is a tangible sense of completion and satisfaction upon completing your viewing.
In addition, each episode contained, at the end, a brief history lesson about the real world versions of items and places visited by the characters in that episode. These were cut from various non-English versions of the series, but are here in full educational glory.
Never before released on video (either VHS or DVD) in America before now, and filled with great extras, this is something that should not be missed. For those of us that grew up watching the adventures of Esteban, to a whole new generation of children that have never experienced a cartoon of this caliber, you simply cannot go wrong here.
Children of the Sun, after 20 long years, our time has finally begun!
