Sav the Episodes!
June 11th, 2008
This is the original pilot for Molly, Star Racer, which later became Oban, Star-Racers.
Years ago, I met Savin Yeatman-Eiffel at MTV Animation, when he was pitching an animated show called Squat. We kept in touch for a while and I even got to tour his studio, Sav The World!, when I was visiting Paris. A few years later, the entire studio picked up and moved to Japan to make Oban. For a while, you could watch it on ABC Family/Jetix in the US, and later, Toon Disney. Now the complete series is finally available on DVD.
For fans of anime-inspired kids’ shows, this French/Japanese co-production is far superior to most in character design, animation, imagination, and plot.
