## English dub cast

In 1998 which was nearly a decade after the original Japanese release, Pioneer Family Entertainment (which then became Geneon Universal which is now known as NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan as of today) has gotten the rights to pick up the series and for distribution in North America under license from Nippon Herald Films. They along with Ocean Studios in Vancouver, Canada, worked together to produce an English dub of the series with an all-star Canadian voice cast, using the Wordfit System and with Karl Williams serving as the director.
Unfortunately, only 13 out of 52 episodes were dubbed in English and the series was left on a cliffhanger, due to the poor quality of the dubbing. From October 13, 1998 to July 27, 1999, six VHS volumes were released across North America with the first tape having three episodes and the rest having two. Episodes 2 and 3 were not dubbed for the English-speaking market mostly due to the content, despite having its importance in the series' through that particular arc. So Pioneer decided to have that arc skipped, thus having Episodes 1, followed by 4 up to 15 dubbed. On top of that, the episodes were edited heavily during production of the English adaptation dub, involving scenes cut and changed, as well as having the score entirely redone digitally. The music was composed by Tom Keenlyside and John Mitchell and with the editing being handled by Gina Mueller and Eric LeBlanc.
