though i haven't been able to have access to it much =\, it was also a big hype in Vietnam and still is (maybe) as well, thought it was popular through the comic books not the video series. i've only seen like the first 10 episodes of conan.... anyone know a place anywhere in LA that has this series in english?
I would recommend you not to watch it in English though. I read a few English version manga and I LoLed at the translations which include how they changed the names etc. If you are looking for manga though, you should be able to find them in Borders.
Come on, even Aoyama sensei himself questioned if the N. American audience would be able to understand the riddles/codes/jokes and references in English. The English manga didn't do a very good job of it, and if you really want to understand it, you have to wiki the historical figure/events they referred to. Like the shouguns which was often brought up in quite a few occassions. Although it improves your internet research abilities XP
