Outlanders
Twenty years after its debut, the OVAOutlandersis being rereleased with a new English dub: fans chose the cast in an online vote. Nerdy 19-year-old photographer Tetsuya (voiced by Sean Schemmel) watches in horror as alien princess Kahm (Liza Jacqueline) invades Earth and dismembers soldiers. Kahm falls for Tetsuya and decides to marry him, despite the objections of her father the Emperor, her best friend Battia (Rebecca Soler), and lupine captain Geobaldi (Schemmel again, using a much lower pitch). Tetsuya wins over Battia and Geobaldi through his resolve, and the quartet defeats the Emperor in battle through a daring (and not fully explained) maneuver of Geobaldi's. This featherweight jiggle fest borrows heavily fromUrusei Yatsura: like Lum, Kahm has green hair, horns, a miniscule bikini--and the power to zap Tetsuya when he annoys her. The scenes of the formidably stacked Battia in bed with the wolf-like Geobaldi may disturb the squeamish--and delight Furries.
