Cybersix Discussion

[Soviet Heavy]

Continuing on my nostalgic rampage, I came across another gem of animation, Cybersix.

The animation in this particular series is downright stunning. It was made by Japanese animators, but the aesthetic feels much more similar to that of the Tintin cartoons.

Anyways, this show follows the exploits of Cybersix, a Nazi created experiment on the run from her creator and his hordes of mutants. Cybersix is like a cross between Batman and Zorro plus a gender flip.

By day, she disguises herself as a man and poses as a highschool teacher. And she has a brother who's consciousness is kept within a black panther. Awesome

I heard this show was banned in the States because of the whole cross dressing angle, so it sucks that they had to miss out on this beautiful show. When I said the animation was stunning, I'm not joking. Look at that title sequence. The entire show is like that.

Sadly, the show only lasted for thirteen episodes, and much of the drugs and sexual references from the Argentinian comic it was based off of were cut, along with a lot of the backstory.

If you have the time, I would definitely recommend checking this series out. Great animation, excellent voice acting, and a unique story make this one a winner.

Wow, that's an old throwback. Well, here in Canada it was on for white a while in the 90's, then I think it made a short comeback a few years ago. It was my first gender bender growing up, and to date it's still remains one of my favorites. It was a short but sweet series, in which so much took place. The character growth was amazing, but it wasn't just the characters that grew on you. I came to love the coastal city in which the event's transpired.
Gosh I love that series......
My favorite character was the little evil genius kid. What's his name? AGH! It's been so long I forgot!

The kid's name was Josef. And yeah, it only aired here on Teletoon, and in France I think. That might have something to do with the lack of exposure.

I remember being very young and her swapping genders was a bit confusing.

Makes sense I suppose. I never hear anyone talking about it, even on hardcore obscure animation forums.
I really liked the love story in that series. I think I appreciate it more now, what with all the dime a dozen harem crap that comes out now. It's all fan service with no substance. Cyber Six is the antithesis to that.

The good thing is I found the whole series on Youtube, so I can bask in the nostalgia.

Because I saw it when I was young, I had no problem with it. Nowadays it's harder for me to get into any romance that has any form of gender swapping. Oh how I miss the days of innocence, before 4chan ruined everything for me......
