Dairugger XV Episode Guide and Review

With the release by Media Blasters of Dairugger on DVD *and* finally subtitled, I'm starting an episode/comparison guide for the anime that inspired the dub. We already knew that some violence was cut and some story lines/ideas changed when the show was dubbed into Voltron, but many of the details were literally lost in translation to much of the English speaking fan base. Now, I can go beyond clips and bits to bring a more detailed guide to light.
I've also included this handy-dandy text file, which will pop up in a new window, and serve as a name guide between the anime and dub worlds.


Review Guide Key:

- This ep was lamer than the anime's soundtrack. Blech.
- Meh. Could be better.
- Not overwhelmingly fantastic, but not bad!
- Pretty entertaining episode.
- The best of the best.
