Gemelli nel segno del destino

This show is a must see i think.

As a child i noticed the intro song but i was to young to be really intrested. My love for all things Chinese and a friend who recommanded me this show meant i have to see it. And so now i am watching it, the story is really clever written and Jules and Julee could be real children (beside the special powers ofcourse)

The same goes for all the side characters or so it seems.

The whole story never seem to get boring and it makes me always wondering what will be next, i still have a good 30 episodes but i am pretty sure i wont be dissapointed by the rest of this show.

10 out of 10.

In the year 1995 at 5pm in the afternoon on ABC TV, I settled down after school to watch this show religiously. It had me hooked as it wasn't 'silly' like most of the cartoons on at that time, It is saddening that there is barely a trace of this show left on the internet, let alone on TV. I'm 25 now, and find myself rather worried at some of the cartoons that are produced these days. They're a waste of money compared to the in depth cartoons, that were shown on ABC in the early to mid 1990s.

Hopefully one day it will be released on DVD.

It is one of the cartoons I miss, along with Spartakus and the Sun Beneath the Sea.

Twins of Destiny is probably the only show I have ever watched, live to air, each and every week, and been so gripped by that I never missed an episode. Factor in that I was in primary school at the time, and this is something special. I remember being conflicted by the ending - not because it was bad, but because it was so (for me, at that age) adult that I really had to sit down and think about what it meant for all the characters. Now, I can only remember little snippets of the show, and I really wish - like the few other people I've ever met who've seen it - that it was available on DVD. It's a travesty to think of it mouldering away on celluloid somewhere, unwatched and unloved. If the technology and audience exists to put old children's shows like She-Ra and Tintin onto DVD, then surely Twins of Destiny deserves the same treatment.

Anyway - this show had a profound impact on me as a kid, and I absolutely loved it. I'd love to recommend it to people, but seeing as how it's next to impossible to lay hands on, I'll have to settle with pleading quietly for its re-release.

The common point of most animation is to show very clever heroes against very stupid anti-heroes! And most of the time in every episode, we must watch the same childish idea.

Twins of destiny was one of the few animations that left this old rule in behind. The challenges that the main characters faced in this story, were probably the biggest in cartoon history!

The despicable and merciless killer character of this story was created so interesting that most kids liked him.

Although the creator of the anime, to achieve this goal, had been forced to break boundaries and use the adult elements. To be honest, most anti-heroes in adult programs at that time usually were not smart enough either, but the equal position of the heroes and anti-heroes made the series a great success among kids, probably because they didn't want to be considered children! Adult elements in this anime such as death, liberation, the greed of humans and also self sacrifice make this adventure cartoon the color of horror and thriller films, ( especially with terrifying music)

I grew up watching this anime. It pushed me to a level of taste, that meant that (except one or two time) I never enjoyed another anime as much.

I would not say twins of destiny is flawless and that I was totally satisfied with it, but nothing is perfect in the world and I always wished that there were more series like it.

Judging from the amount of hits on this show, I can assume not too many have on interest in it.

I can't say that I have recently watched any of the episodes, but from what I can remember of it, the idea of two kids with magical powers, to free their fathers from a wicked empress, seems a little silly, but it is a bit like Farthingwood animals, quite enchanting.

If anyone is reading this, then obviously someone thinks it is of some value. so, to the people who are reading this, i would call the series an epic, and is memorable. I think I was only 5 or 6 years old when I last saw it, so maybe that proves something about it.

So, in conclusion, if it is back on T.V., please let me know!
