I think ADV also licensed a Panzer Dragoon name but alas, it's still only on VHS.
Wild Arms TV I thought was enjoyable, mainly because I got the whole set for just $30. It starts out in a prison where two treasure hunter girls, a crest sorceress and a crimson noble, try to break in to naturally steal something and an imprisoned doctor tries to break out. Before they break out they try to get the treasure that turns out to just be a 5 year old kid who says he's 25 and reincarnation of the Evil Race. After that each episode is it's own contained story with one common goal in mind, to find the kids real body and for the treasure hunters to just find treasure. The last ten episodes is where the real story shapes up and does it reasonbly well. Not really predictable so it's entertaining. My only real problems with were some of ADV's translations. In the first episode they say Crimson Noble but later they say Noble Red, They also call the planet Filgaia in the first few episodes but then call it Falgaia and in the subs they call the healberries hielberries. Not that big of a concern but it just irks me a bit.
Another interesting bit of trivia I learned is that the GaterKeepers anime was actually predated by a video game of the same name and used most the same characters and was a strategy RPG with Dating sim elements as well.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
