    Alright, I had a ton of fun with this episode. I was not expecting this to be a sequel to the original series (from the late 80’s). I don’t remember too much from when I watched this back in the 90’s, but this first episode did enough to set things up that I was able to follow along enough for it to fill in the blanks as we go.

    I am super curious to see what they do with Gai. It’s not every main character that starts out the series with slaughtering innocent women and children. So, I wonder how they are going to turn him into the red warrior. Speaking of slaughtering, there was a lot of it! This was way more brutal than I remember the first series being.

    I was just going to check out this show for some nostalgia, but I am so on board after this episode. Looking forward to more!

      Just watched this episode and this is actually a direct sequel to the original series instead of a remake like I thought it was. It was a hell of a lot of fun.
