2nd July 2008

For the 6th time in the last 5 years, the 1977 german Kimba series are again aired on german "pay-TV" Junior. This airing has started on 1st July. The episodes are aired Monday to Friday at 8:30 AM, and Saturdays and Sundays at 7:20 AM CET. The airing will end on 7th August.

I've also corrected some mistakes on the DVD page, and since in the meantime the last (5th) DVD set with the french-dubbed "Leo" series has been released, I've added that info as well.


10th April 2008

Yet another small update has been made (to the Recent history page) - from 2nd February the 1991 2nd german Kimba series known as "BouBou - King of the Animals" were again aired in Germany after a long time on Junior, part of the german pay-TV "Premiere". The episodes were aired every day at 11:45 AM.


12th January 2008

Another small update has been made (to the Recent history page) - from 19th February the 1977 german Kimba series will be again aired in Germany on Junior, part of the german pay-TV "Premiere". The episodes will be aired every day at 6:00 AM. (I've also updated some tiny details on the DVD page)


20th December 2007

After a big period of time a small update has been made - a new (video) clip, containing the italian version (from the original italian Kimba series from the 1970s) of the song known in the original "Jungle Emperor" series as the "A-I-U-E-O mambo", or "Let's sing a (human) song", has been added to the History pages. It's available as an Windows Media Video clip which you can download here (2 MB big), and I've also written down and translated the lyrics of the song for better understanding.

The other new updates will follow in 2008. Until then, I would like to wish you Merry Christmas and a happy and a successful New Year 2008!


13th September 2007

Two new DVD releases have been added to the DVD page: the first one is a DVD set called Kimba Mini Set that contains 5 DVDs with just first 26 episodes from the Ultra Limited set, and along with that, it doesn't have any extras or booklets.

The second release is a "revision" of the previously released (and now discontinued) french "Le Roi Leo" DVD sets that, instead of 3 sets with 6 DVDs, on 4 sets with 4 DVDs offer the complete french-dubbed 1965 "Jungle Emperor" series, plus first half of the french-dubbed 1966 "Leo" series.

A new video release has been added to the History pages - it is the rare UK video release from 1983 of Kimba that consisted of two volumes (the first one was released on 29th July 1983). Each of these two volumes had a running time of 90 minutes, and consisted of 4 episodes edited into a movie, which was made simply by removing the opening and closing sequences between the episodes.
