    Has anyone ever seen these two Japanese versions of the 90's X-Men cartoon intro? They both put the American intro to shame. Heck, these two Japanese intros put the entire 90's X-Men cartoon series to shame! And I really like the cartoon X-Men, but the show should've been done by Japanese artists. http://video.search.yahoo.com/video/view?&h=124&w=150&type=flash&rurl=www.youtube.com%2Fw%2FX-men-Anime-Intro%3Fv%3DLa16uVNeErk%26feature%3DRandom%26page%3D1%26t%3Dt%26f%3Db&vurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fplayer.swf%3Fvideo_id%3DLa16uVNeErk&back=p%3Dx-men%2Banime%26ei%3DUTF-8%26fr%3DFP-tab-vid-t%26cv%3Dg%26x%3Dwrt&turl=re2.mm-b1.yimg.com%2Fimage%2F1632374008&name=player.swf&no=1&tt=4&p=x-men+anime&oid=53dd4c9c89ede43d&size=10.3kB&dur=1&src=p

    Wow...at first, I thought it was just the 90's cartoon redubbed...did they make this around the time the 90's cartoon was popular in the States? It seems it was heavily influenced from it

    The people who compare Teen Titans to animé are the ones who don't know animé past Dragonball and Pokémon. :down:o

    I'm not a big anime fan, but that looked amazing. I'd like to see that as a full series. Magneto and Jean's animation alone puts the American series to shame.

    There are no episodes, evidently. These are just Japanese-made intros. I would love if there were Japanese-made episodes, though. I sure hope the new cartoon, Wolverine and the X-Men will be this cool!

    I'm glad I'm not alone in seeing how awesome these intros are. Several years ago, I believe it was after the X-Men cartoon series had ended, that on Sunday morning, a station other than Fox aired re-runs of X-Men, and the first intro I posted was shown over the show's end credits; the intro with Wolverine fighting Omega Red. I was always curious as to what this different style of X-Men animation was--but I loved it! I'm glad we have these things to view. I was EXTREMELY disappointed to learn these Japanese X-Men intros were only intros. I want an entire X-Men cartoon in anime art! And I want it to be a prime time show, too!

    Yeah these are pretty cool! They made them to air with the American series when it aired in Japan. I wonder if kids there were disappointed when the intros ended, the show started and it looked like ... well, the one we got.

    X-Men was an awesome show. But the artwork, although good, got very cheap-looking, sloppy, and inconsistent at times--a little too often for my taste. Fox's X-Men just didn't have the energy, nor graceful animation of these Japanese intros.:o

    An "Otaku" is a non-Japanese person who loves Anime, Manga and Japanese culture.

    Yep, I love it. :D

    I liked the X-Men animated series, but I have to admit the artwork wasn't that good...

    The first vid link is broken. Can anyone help?

    Also the secodn one does LOOK awsome. However the 90's cartoon wasn't that bad in artwork. I liked it. It could have been better but for a 10 year old kid it was great.

    Can't wait for the new Wolvie & Xmen series, sounds interesting so far.

    For whatever reason, it looks like the X-Jet bends to dodge whatever the hell was blasting at it.
