Shinchou Kyouryo (Legend of Condor Hero) S1  

I love how the aniDB proprietary features were left totally intact.
Might as well just open it in an iframe and at least have them all work.

New season would be cool, this is one of the better romance stories I've met. Not the overly boring type with useless women but a strong couple for a change.

Wow, ummm I really really really liked this anime alot.
Do you guys know if its going to be released in the US any time soon?
Coz I really like it and even though Ive already seen it, it deserves a place in my collection. So going to buy it when it comes out here in the US.
Again... wow!
Will there be really a season 2?

Franx06 there is already a season 2 but its language is cantonese & its aired already in china but not in japan

Heres the link to condor 2 http://tvcity.tvb.com/special/condor_hero/main/index.html

okay thanks alxyutw, just cant wait what happened =D
Thanks for the site too, ive browse online seeing if its already out in the US it says that Best Buy carries it, and Ive went through like 3 different Best Buys and several popular video stores but then dont cary it =(

uhh i can't read chinese so could anyone please translate the info into enlish?. Like when is the second season begin, how many more episodes, etc....

PLEASE this anime is love at its best. I cannot wait until the second season is released.

Does this series count as anime or cartoon?..as soon as i started watching it (bought the series from HK on VCD) i figured it was drawn and animated in HK not Japan.  Licenced by TVB... cant wait for Season 2 though.. season 1 boxset 1 you got a foil card in it... very nice

There will be a total of 3 seasons on Condor Hero.  Currently, season 1 (26 episodes) and season 2 (26 episodes) are available for purchasing.  Season 2 is currently on air in Hong Kong.  Season 3 has not been aired yet.  I prefer the Japanese version because I like to Japanese voice acting (they are much more professional in my opinion).  Unfortunately, Condor Hero was not popular in Japan, and there won't be a Japanese version of season 2 and 3.  In contrast, Condor Hero anime is a great success in Chinese speaking countries (culture difference to Japan??).  The collaboration between Japanese studio and Hong Kong studio stopped after Season 1.  The project is now on Hong Kong studio's hand.  I really like this series.  Hope everyone enjoys.

let's just hope the HK series is not a wack job

I watched some of this on TV on TVBJ. Its pretty good so I'm dling it to watch all of it. Its actually a chinese story to start off with though. It seems the Japs picked it up and made it anime. But there are a few TV series made on this sotry already.

So is this anime in chinese or japanese? I can't possibly enjoy what originally was a chinese story in japanese dialog...way too wierd.

What difference does that make? But anyways, I really hope someone does s2 of condor hero. Or at least make it available since there are also quite a few peeps that can understand cantonese in the first place :p

Lol, this funny.  People are complain condor hero with Japanese audio.  On the other hand, I really can't watch chinese audio.  They speak significantly faster and voice acting is not upto par(comparing condor hero s2 to s1)

Live-Evil is suppose to be doing season 2 but at their speed, it will be licensed before even can manage half way through.

I already have the S2 DVD's for this series, too bad, no english subs, Audio is in cantonese 5.1 DD/mandarine 2.0 DD
subs are in chinese/chinese traditional.

I'd love to upload it, but too be not everyone (myself not included) can understand chinese ^-^

you know episode 27 is finally finished subbing and is out rite now.

Hiz, this is for anyone who are interested...

there are actually 3 sets of books for the condor, written by a chinese writer in the name of JIN YONG in the 1960s to 1970s for the hong kong newspapers.

the 1st set is actually called, Legend of the condor heroes (the heroes are Huang Rong and Guo Jin and Yang guo's father Yang Kang)

2nd one namely, Return of the condor hero (this present anime) the heroes are of cos Xiao long nu and Yang guo

3rd one is, Heaven Sword & Dragon Sabre (which suppose to be a story tat is 100 yrs later from return of condor hero) the heros are Zhang Wu Ji (guy), Zhao Min (Mongolian Princess, Zhou Zi Rou (Han village girl who became a top martial artists later) this story is actually base on the sword that Yang Guo had use later in his life. the sword was being made into 2 weapons with secrets mannals that can take over the world burried inside the 2 weapons.

most of Jin Yong's books are being drawn into comics which can be found in most of asian countries, but are in chinese. I'm not a good story teller and not very good with english. pls pardon my grammer and spellings.

The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Sabre were made from black gold? Or whatever it was and was considered the strongest weapons in the story...they can bs this stuff up and yet how come they bs a weapon made of diamond? Im sure diamond would be stronger.

what i meant to say was, How come they CAN'T bs a weapon made of diamond?

Jin Yongs works are the best, ive seen every one of his works in TV Drama format, they are that popular some of the series are released again with new casts...

may go back to Hong Kong in June so id grab the HK VCD's or DVD's of they are cheap..
