Teen Titans: Season 5 [DVD]

This is not the Teen Titans Go series that is much more cutey pie and for kids. This is the original series that is made for more teens. This is more similar to the Young Justice series. In this the final season, the Titans grow up quickly to feud with a team of villains that could give the Justice League a fight! Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven face Brain, Madam Rouge, Monsieur Mallah, and General Immortus in an all-out battle! The Brotherhood of Evil eliminates the lesser known Titans like Wildebeast and Hotspot which escalates the vendetta into a global super war that has a shocking ending! This features all of the Titans plus every villain in the book to make for one wild and action packed final season. The Justice League would be proud!

If you enjoyed previous episodes or seasons of Teen Titans, you will enjoy this one. Same anime-inspired art style. Same action. Same jokes. Same kids.This one has one of the better overarching story lines though. Possibly the best. And it was obvious that they knew they were ending because they pulled out all the stops.They delved into the titans past to give us Beast Boy's former teammates, the Doom Patrol and their enemies, the Brotherhood of Evil. We see Beast Boy really come into his own this year and even see an episode which shows how the Titans first got together and another which holds the arrival of a much demanded founding character from the comics.The final two episode showdown against the Brotherhood of Evil remains one of my favorite climaxes in TV animation, right up there with the end of season one of Justice League Unlimited, and of Young Justice: Invasion.My only true complaint lies with the fact that Starfire was never truly given her own storyline. She deserved one.Also, a caveat. The final episode, after the two episode climax, is bittersweet. A completely different tone than the rest of the season. If you want to end on a triumphant note, that is not the episode to watch. Consider watching it out of order. But if you want to see the goodbye that the creators intended, stick with it. It is a goodbye to innocence and to the Titans. Appropriate, bit like I said, bittersweet.

A couple of years ago, I wrote to Warner Bros asking them to bring back the great quality of incidental music in their cartoons, quoting Batman TAS, Superman TAS as my favourite examples.I think they listened. The first two episodes of this season "Homecoming Part 1 & 2" feature a fantastic score of dramatic music, which complements the guest characters: The Doom Patrol. The story shows Beast Boy's connection to his former team, and his divided loyalty between the Doom Patrol and the Titans.Doom Patrol's enemies the Brotherhood of Evil (led by M'sieur Mallah & Madam Rouge) become the main focus of the Titans for the rest of the season, which sends them on a global quest to sign up honorary Titans galore.In "Lightspeed", you'll see Kid Flash (voiced by Michael Rosenbaum, who voiced the adult future version of the character in Justice League/Unlimited as The Flash). Lots of other guest characters familiar to DC comics including Red Star (a retooled version of the Russian Starfire from Teen Titans original comic series #18).This is the best season, and a great way to wrap up the series. Watch out for the surprising final episode, featuring the return of ... I won't spoil it.

The final season of the Teen Titans pays off the first four seasons by looking both back [Beast Boy's first team and how the Titans came together] and forward [will the Titans endure?]all while maintaining a season-long struggle with The Brotherhood of Evil. The interplay between the Titans stays strong. Two dead foes from the past appear to be back in the coda. The staid Raven comes out of her shell when she babysits three toddler superheroes and their invisible [imaginary?] friend. Dozens of heroes and villains duke it out in the final battle. This animated series amply carries on the decade-long quality tradition begun with The Animated Batman series and Superman the Animated series although less grim in tone and incorporating more anime emotive icons. If this is your first encounter with the Teen Titans,you will find the character-driven tales satisfying - you may even want to get the first four season [if you don't already have them]to enjoy how well the entire series holds together as a cohesive whole.

it's the final season in the series, and they finished off great. i love the titans. BB is my favorite, and this one was pretty much chock-full of him, his origins, Terra's return and his reaction, him kicking Slade's butt alone, and a few other connected episodes where Beast Boy saved the day without the other (original) Titans around to help. of course it shows Starfire's origin, they all meet and the forming of the Titans, how Jinx (formerly of the H.I.V.E. FIVE) becomes an honorary Titan, and other little things......and they finished off strong, with virtually every villian any of the Titans have taken on coming after them all at once, taking the Titans (full and honorary) down one or two at a time. once again, BB came to the rescue, calling on the few remaining allies he had to help him launch a final attempt to save the others from their enemies. in the end, over 140 Titans stand against the remaining villians and come out on top. yay!!so... basically, i was in cartoon heaven. now i'm just waiting to see exactly how they plan to bring the Judas Contract story arc of the Teen Titans to dvd. (Terra & Slade's story was already told, and if i remember correctly, that WAS the original Judas Contract in the comic books.) maybe (now that Terra and Slade are both back) the continuation of that story will pick up in the new movie (if they ever get around to doing it). either way, can't wait to find out.Titans Go!

Packaged great, no faults and works like a charm!I used to watch this series as a teen when it first came out on Cartoon Network, I've bought and now own the entire series to watch at my own leisure so I can hop on the nostalgia trip whenever I wish! :DI live in England and my DVD player can play most region 1 DVDs just fine, so I was extremely relieved that this (and the rest of the DVDs) works with my DVD player :DVery good price as well for a classic that is dear to many people!

Great compilation of the old Teen Titans series. My kids love the Teen Titans - in all their forms.
