Venus Wars
The Venus Wars (ヴイナス戦記, Vinasu Senki?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. It was serialized in the Gakken magazine Nora Comics from 1987 to 1990. In 1989, The Venus Wars was adapted into an anime film directed by Yasuhiko, and co-written by Yuichi Sasamoto and Yasuhiko, and produced by Bandai Visual, Gakken, and Shochiku.
The manga was translated into English by Dark Horse Comics in the early 1990s. The Venus Wars film was localized in the United Kingdom and the United States by the Central Park Media subsidiary Manga Entertainment, gaining recognition when it aired in heavy rotation on the Sci-Fi Channel "Saturday Anime" movie block in the late 1990s.
Discotek relicensed Venus Wars in 2012 and releasing a well deserved, shiny new remastered DVD release from a new telecline print which is anamorphic widescreen and a significant upgrade over the old Central Park Media release, which was letterboxed and from a grainy, stretched source.

Famous quotes containing the words venus and/or wars:
“and Venus among the fishes skips and is a she-dolphin
she is the gay, delighted porpoise sporting with love and the sea
she is the female tunny-fish, round and happy among the males
and dense with happy blood, dark rainbow bliss in the sea.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Wars and revolutions and battles are due simply and solely to the body and its desires. All wars are undertaken for the acquisition of wealth; and the reason why we have to acquire wealth is the body, because we are slaves in its service.”
—Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
