genre: science-fiction

The Galaxy Express 999 -- the anachronistic train which takes its passengers on incredible voyages of self-discovery across vast expanses of space. A train which trancends the concepts of the space-time continuum itself. Join young Hoshino Tetsuro on his personal voyage of discovery and growth across the universe aboard a train of wonders: The Galaxy Express 3-9.

Created by master manga artist Matsumoto Leije, GE 999 is merely part of a vast universe of characters and situations which spans generations of time. The Galaxy Express videos are distributed in North America by Viz Video.

Parental Guidance Advised - Several scenes of violence, which is occasionally shown with Peckinpah-like detail and slow-motion. Some scenes of indistinct nudity, though not of a nature that would be disturbing to most audiences.
