This is the perfect way how to make a continuation of old anime , keep everything good about it and just refresh the animation and adjust for technical difference .
I'd say the animation was great except for the cg integration but for a big return after 20 years they should have given Ryo something at stake. Diluting à scénario worth for 2 episode into à full movie doesn't bring out the best out of the characters. Diluting the threat level of your opponents doesn't do good either (is Ryo heroic for defeating some goons that a simple old guy with a pan can KO ?) Had Ryo been put in a situation he had never been in or had the vilain been à compelling one, they would have had a chance to make something excellent. Here the movie is entertaining but I'd rather see some old episodes (especially the ones where umibozu loses his sight and fight Ryo in a cemetary)
I love that they kept the old artstyle instead of changing it to _"fit the times"_ , or making it slightly more like newer anime style. This looks amazing.
Why do these villain think it is remotely a good idea to pick up a fight against Kenshiro? and love the fact an old soundtrack from the original anime is played on the background
Sure walk in pairs in black, nothing suspicious at all Lmao she singlehandedly made them all retreat. Her aim is just like Kaoru, maybe even worse xD 4:27 His *"Mokkori"* face never gets old
That scene would be a lot more funny if similar things don't actually happen in real life. There is this one time in America where a small girl was given a full auto Uzi for god knows what reason and the small girl ended up losing control while spraying and shot her instructor in the head, instantly killing him. When I saw that scene it made me so nervous as irl these people all around her could have been shot including Kenshiro. Imaging her doming Kenshiro right on the spot that's the end of the story. sheesh
Kaori is actually quite an accurate shooter. It's just that Ryo secretly modified her gun to purposely miss so that she doesn't have blood on her hands. Kaori got around this by being good at making ricochet shots
What made me appreciate it even more is that they paid attention to how the manual of arms work with a weapon from H&K, especially if it is an MP5, which they literally made the contractor do the H&K slap on it. Now that’s a special attention to detail.
looks like they added a rush hour reference though given the fact that Saeba Ryo was played by jackie Chan once I dont need to complain cus that referene is great
"Hey John this Japanese guy is trying to grope your wife." John Wick: who is he? "I believe they call him Ryo Saeba, also known as City Hunter." John Wick: Understandable, have a good day.
If we think about it.. Ryo incredible skill is actually quite superhuman.. I don't think there is another good explanation for this other than..... *He secretly have the essence of Hokuto Shinken*
On a darker and more serious note, part of the reason why he has seemingly superhuman abilities is because he was forced to take the dagerous narcotic "Angel Dust" back in the days when he was a guerilla fighter
@PODCAST - SørenCast Z I'm just joking and this doesn't always superhuman.. it did possible in real life though the chance you will meet these type of people is very low you probably not going to but still.. theory that Ryo learn Hokuto Shinken is fun
Ryo is not a bad person . He cares about Ai alot. It's just he thinks about MOKKORI all the time. The reason he is thinking of MOKKORI all the time may be because SAEKO DIDN'T reward him and takes advantage of him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As a child, after surviving the accident that killed his parents in Central America, he was raised as a child soldier. He spent nearly 20 years fighting in Central and South America before returning home to Japan. Normal for him died a long time ago and the perverted goof he shows the world is the mask he wears to hide what he was turned into.
@@danielhaire6677it's not only that,he also was drugged by Kaibara Shin with the angel dust,and the drug has a long term effect that made Ryo the way he is.
There’s like 8 anime that call Bounty Hunters/ Mercs, “sweepers”. Did they copy City Hunter? They’re called Sweepers in Gungrave and Black Cat as well. Both of those have the main character be a man with incredible shooting skills and both were former Hitmen for criminal organizations.
There's anime like scientific rail gun and irregular high school now does different perspective of the characters. Sorry i didn't make sense, but those anime are connected to that anime but will have their own view and their show.
I remember in the old dubbed films they use to call ryo joe and umibozu falcon but in the new film they fixed the dub and finally call ryo and umibozu by their real names

Gundam does this as well. (I’m talking about UC timeline, not the spin offs like Build Drivers, SEED, 00, etc)
@@amuroray9115 what wrong with 00 and seed, agree on build driver though.

This movie was actually realized as a huge fan service to the old anime series (especially the first 2 seasons).
A very great one...
I love that they kept the old artstyle instead of changing it to _"fit the times"_ , or making it slightly more like newer anime style. This looks amazing.
True. Gundam also does this (Gundam Origin and Unicorn).
I agree. There are some things that just don't need to change.
And the old music too. :)
Why do these villain think it is remotely a good idea to pick up a fight against Kenshiro? and love the fact an old soundtrack from the original anime is played on the background
Ryo purposely acts like an idiot to lower the guard of his opponents, where they are more prone to screw up
Yes, they did put up the soundtrack when they scramble off. I think the track called "midnight lightning". Have to look it up.
Sure walk in pairs in black, nothing suspicious at all

@@fryingpancakes8445 Plot armor. Reality is often disappointing.
Kaori*
Kaoru was a name made up by Ryo in the anime in an attempt to convince a female client that Kaori was a transvestite
Kaori is actually quite an accurate shooter. It's just that Ryo secretly modified her gun to purposely miss so that she doesn't have blood on her hands. Kaori got around this by being good at making ricochet shots
There's a reason why he's called the "City Hunter"
i see two meanings of this
@@pondtanaka4847 Hehe boi!!

2:45 the super realistic reloading is in stark contrast to the rest of this scene.
What made me appreciate it even more is that they paid attention to how the manual of arms work with a weapon from H&K, especially if it is an MP5, which they literally made the contractor do the H&K slap on it. Now that’s a special attention to detail.
“Girl loses control of machine gun, defeats goons by accident” is one of my favorite tropes
Dude is a giant golem of a man yet he jumps and kicks like a world class martial artist. Ryo is literally a perfect image of Batman
Perverted Batman to be exact
I've said this once, I say it again. Had City Hunter was remaked with the same yet improved art style and technology, it would be a real banger.
3:03 Never let rookie touch the gun 🤣
2:45 he slapped the MP5
The sound design in this movie is a real unsung hero. Specially whoever mixed the foley.
These stalkers are nothing compared to the enemies from previous movies: 1989 motion picture and The Bay City War.
0:03 Ryo got a body. He maybe a perverted goof, but he's got a body for days
We already know he’s ripped
I personally think the perverted goof is a mask he shows the world. There's a predator under it that he uses the mask to keep under control.
Ryo is also like 6’4, so yea he’s massive.
looks like they added a rush hour reference though given the fact that Saeba Ryo was played by jackie Chan once I dont need to complain cus that referene is great
Ryo never get old
Probably because of Angels dust drug in his veins.
A bunch of men in long black cloak walking together, not suspicious surely.
Also, they're shooting as bad as Star Troopers.
Man stormtroopers really got some competition now when it comes to missing the protagonist.
Those hitmen vs Ryo Saeba. It's not fair. They don't stand a chance.😂
Ryo's thumb's been training to flick a ball that strong
"Hey John this Japanese guy is trying to grope your wife."
John Wick: who is he?
"I believe they call him Ryo Saeba, also known as City Hunter."
John Wick: Understandable, have a good day.
That would be a pretty sweet fight, in all honesty.
John Wick would get angry at the guy telling him this, not Ryo, because John's wife is dead and Ryo isn't a necrophile.
If we think about it.. Ryo incredible skill is actually quite superhuman.. I don't think there is another good explanation for this other than.....
*He secretly have the essence of Hokuto Shinken*
Nani!?

Nah, he is blessed by the Getter Rays from his previous life as Ryoma Nagare.
@@titan133760 basically he was a killing machine
Those guys at 2:00 got man handled so quick 😂
I was just about to comment on this like hit the corner and boom sleep 🤣😂
Is this a fair statement? Saeba is a pervert but is not a creep? 🤔
yes
Idk he does pretty creepy shit in public if you think about it lmao
Wish they can make a remastered series of city hunter like Baki!!! This anime is the best for me
Ryo is not a bad person . He cares about Ai alot. It's just he thinks about MOKKORI all the time. The reason he is thinking of MOKKORI all the time may be because SAEKO DIDN'T reward him and takes advantage of him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought him being a pervert is just the side effect of his angel dust drug.
@@carltasticdrew9633i don't think so because Mick Angel is just as lecherous as him and he didn't take the angel dust prior the plane crash.
putting aside the firearm inaccuracies what happened to saeba and his 44? he was an ace and now marbles?
He still uses it in this movie. Just not in this particular scene tho
Edit: i think you meant .357
@@bri961 it could be .357 but i remember something about importing it for the extra power or precision im not sure
@@jesh3720 he does use other revolver if his .357 doesn't meet the requirements of the mission
@@jesh3720 that's Angel Heart ( A secret agent of the US in city hunter universe) who has a .44 Magnum
Best anime ever
Ryo Saeba is not even human. His skill in fighting and survival is beyond that of normal men.
As a child, after surviving the accident that killed his parents in Central America, he was raised as a child soldier. He spent nearly 20 years fighting in Central and South America before returning home to Japan. Normal for him died a long time ago and the perverted goof he shows the world is the mask he wears to hide what he was turned into.
@@danielhaire6677 That explains everything.

@@stefanmiddelton7626 *Chuckle* Why do you think I used the phrase "hide what he was *turned* into." Kaibara's "Immortal Soldier"
Didn't know City Hunter returned 2 years ago.
The 'Footsteps ' would have fited this scene perfectly
Love how they kept the soundtrack
idk which eps but there is a time when shinjuku love ryo and fight with him,
Loving it they used the old skool sounds
The same old ryo
0:02
"Can you use another photo of Ryo Saeba-san?"
🤔😑😏
"No."
This was purely a good scene hear as we have a nostalgic gag goin on
5:08 nestogia
1:18 FRANKY!?
I had no idea they made a new version wtf
Came out in 2019. I believe they're planning on making more.
@@dafuqman I hope so
@@dafuqman oh my gosh fr? i really hope that happens 😫🤞
@@dafuqman I hope so
Right mr fbi
Great clip. What's the OST at the end?
City Hunter: Still Love Her
What fighting style does ryo saeba use?
There’s like 8 anime that call Bounty Hunters/ Mercs, “sweepers”. Did they copy City Hunter? They’re called Sweepers in Gungrave and Black Cat as well. Both of those have the main character be a man with incredible shooting skills and both were former Hitmen for criminal organizations.

No, the term "Sweeper" has been in use for a while as slang for mercenary or gun-for-hire.
@@foldabotZ thanks for the clarification
He's Physically Stronger Now
Ryo might be goofy around women, but they end up loving him anyway.
Kenshiro when Batman mode on those FOOLS.
Why didn't she just let go of the trigger.. 😂
I remember in the old dubbed films they use to call ryo joe and umibozu falcon but in the new film they fixed the dub and finally call ryo and umibozu by their real names
wear black and mysterious outfit
perfect disguise...
Hitmen could handle the Japanese Mokkori Batman? Don't think so....
how does he flick a Pachinko Ball with such great accuracy?
1:50
when men used to be men, and women used to be women... its almost nostalgy ahhahahaha
4:28 🤤
2:00 - The new Netflix movie "KATE" pays homage to a lot of anime and did a good job copying this in one of their action scenes.
City Rambo
Eye cats
I like how the cat's eye doesn't get old well ai kinda looks more grown up though
Yep I just realized it was a crossover when the cats eye appeared in this new film
Anime name?
Movie is called City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes. Anime is just called City Hunter.
Your new hires, are not very subtle when it comes to blending in.
Are they using nerf guns or something?😂😂
when women uses the gun in city hunter
😎👌👌👌
Lol 2019 anime using 90s concept
