Saiyûki (1978)
That Song!
Best show ever while i was a kid. Now that i'm an adult, i still cant shake that theme song out of my head. Even the ending song (Gandhara) is memorable to me. Some shows will last forever in our hearts. I wish i could find all the episodes and expose my children to this show.
I hope that one day, when Hollywood is done with re-making Marvel Comic stories that they look at something like this.
Jackie Chan would play a great Monkey.
I bet it would be a box office hit!
Opening dialog
In the Worlds before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order, but the Phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, as endless aeon's wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of Heaven, the moistures of the Earth, and the powers of the Sun and the Moon all worked upon a certain rock - old as Creation, and it magically became fertile. That first egg was named Thought. Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha, said, 'With our thoughts we make the world.' Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch: from it there came a stone Monkey. The nature of Monkey was ... irrepressible!
