Orphan presents the first English version of AWOL Compression Remix, the abridged and re-eidted OVA version of the deservedly forgotten 1998 TV series, AWOL. The abridgement eliminates about a third of the TV series and turns a notoriously pokey show into a reasonably fast-paced sci-fi action thriller. Terrorists! Mad hackers! Stoic special squad leaders! The fate of Earth at stake! And lots and lots of explosions!

Laserdisc source, from Piyo Piyo Productions. See this blog entry for more details on the original show and the abridged “remix” version.

All Orphan releases are available from IRC bot Orphan|Arutha in channels #nibl or #news on irc.rizon.net

2019-09-14 09:40:41 UTCmicronicos	2019-09-14 09:40:41 UTC — micronicos At one point I had two LD players and I loved the warm analogue video on a 36" ‘flat-screen’ Toshiba CRT TV with overscan. Lovely quality. Read your article on Domesday player… fascinating. Still got a pristine (bought shrink-wrapped in London from a collector) of Tetsuwan Atom LD set very nice. Also original Star Wars Trilogy LD set. Thanks for your work. Hadn’t heard of AWOL. Interesting read at http://landofobscusion.blogspot.com/2014/08/awol-compression-re-mix-not-quite-anime.html

She travels to an anonymous Western city, a bizarre dreamscape cluttered with elements from works by Dali, Magritte, de Chirico and Escher. The journey will change her completely but when she returns she will be the only one who knows how she has changed. (The poem in the film is by Su Tong-Po, a famous Chinese poet).”
