Default The Legend of Zorro / Kaiketsu Zorro in English, German and Russian

Most here probably never heard of this series as it never came out in the English markets but recently back in 2014 a company named Mondo TV S.P.A (Italian-based) produced three dubs for this show available to watch free of charge on YouTube. Regarding the dubs they are, English, German and Russian.


I wish it'd be released on DVD or an HD remaster for a Blu-ray edition but I'm just glad to see an English dub exists.

Thanks. Had never heard of this before. Not particularly feeling the dub and the font they used for the credits is beyond terrible. But if this was released on dvd or blu with the Japanese language track included, I would definitely give it a try.

As I've been watching shows I usually stop each and every episode after the credits start rolling since that doesn't matter. I do have to say that the voices aren't of stellar quality but it's still somewhat decent and enjoyable, imo.

Oh, the dub (Spanish) I wanted does exist and it's on YouTube. I'll give it a try but kinda dig the English one, too.

The English dub is poor for this series, and I would not recommend the English version at all. Although at least it isn't as bad as the English dub for Gladiators, which is the worst I have heard so far for Mondo TV series.

I was not impressed with the series overall though, the characters and episodic stories seem weak. I didn't make it very far into the English version, but I doubt the Japanese version is that much better.

The animated Zorro series from Warner Bros. offers much better characters and stories, especially considering it was produced around the same time.

I grew up watching Kaiketsu Zorro although never in its entirety so now I'm catching up it with the Spanish dub. The animation still looks great to this day and the Spanish dub fits perfectly with the series.

As for the English dub it feels off but still watchable nevertheless.
