Prepare to feel a little bit older, as Space Channel 5 is now officially 20 years old. On the plus side, people will get to celebrate a bit, as Sega and Grounding have released Space Channel 5 20th Anniversary GyunGyun Selection. This is a two-disc collection of Space Channel 5 music that consists of 50 songs and voice dramas based on the series. Also, yes, the perennial theme song “Mexican Flyer” is the very first track on the album.
Space Channel 5 20th Anniversary GyunGyun Selection is available pretty much everywhere. The collection could be purchased for $15.99 from outlets like Amazon and iTunes, or someone could stream it through Spotify and YouTube Music. (A Honey’s Anime
Here is the full tracklist from Space Channel 5 20th Anniversary GyunGyun Selection. What’s interesting is that eight are voice dramas that involve skits involving some of the more memorable characters. Show Hayami, who played Jaguar throughout the series, Yoshiko Sakakibara, who was Pine in Space Channel 5: Part 2, and Akira Ishida, the voice of the villain purge in Space Channel 5: Part 2, are all confirmed to reprise their roles. Since Ulala and Pudding would also appear, that should mean Mineko Okamura and Kae Iida should show up.

The original Space Channel 5 showed up on the Dreamcast in Japan on December 16, 1999. The rhythmic adventure, where Ken Woodman’s “Mexican Flyer” serves as an overarching theme, relies on a call and answer sort of gameplay. Ulala, as she investigates and reports on alien invasions, comes across extraterrestrials controlling people with music and forcing them to dance. By copying and outdancing them, she saves the day.
Space Channel 5 VR: Kinda Funky News Flash will be released on the PlayStation VR and HTC Vive in Spring 2020. It was originally supposed to appear in 2018, then September 2018, and after that Fall 2019. However, it was recently delayed four a fourth time.
