Krypton Force Five

Blogger's got a new fancy interface thing, and I think it's now such that I can share a spreadsheet with the world and not lose all the formatting! So this one is for fans of my Krypton Force blog that summarises all those releases of Force Five cartoons by my favourite cheap video label. That post brings in more google-search-directed pageviews than anything else I've written, you know. Except the one about how to give yourself food poisoning.

Here's a summary of the original Japanese episode titles (translated, sometimes badly, into English), the titles of the Force Five translations of 26 episodes from each series, the rarer-than-hen's-teeth pre-cert Video Brokers releases, and everyone's favourites, the Krypton Force videos. Just for anyone who's out to collect them all. All this information is, I think, gathered together on the internet for the very first time, and although it involves a teensy bit of guesswork here and there, it's at least 90% accurate. And what more could you want?

(If this doesn't look readable on your computer, please tell me. It looks okayish on mine.)

  1. I have no idea what any of that means, but as you asked about the formatting, your archive list overlays the third and fourth columns of your spreadsheet on my screen. But then this happens why you post large pictures too, it's just more of a problem for text. Could just be my crappy little screen though.

  2. Formatting looks off here too.
