Greetings, Minerboh!
Does it matter to you if the Gatch F episodes are only in Japanese?
I believe that official releases of Gatchaman Fighter, as with Gatchaman II, are available, but are solely in Japanese and in the DVD region format for Japan.
I will quote the words of our resident expert, Tatsunokofan, from an older thread where someone asked a very similar question:
_____________
"Just to clarify, none of the Japanese releases of Gatchaman II or Gatchaman Fighter have any sort of subtitle/caption options, not even in Japanese.
So, if you were thinking of using them as a means to get the dialogue in a text format to translate, they'll be of no help. Both series have been released in Taiwan, dubbed into Mandarin, with optional Chinese subtitles, if that will help anyone. At least those sets are supposed to be Region 0, so they could be played on DVD players in North America!
As far as an official dubbed/subbed release in North America goes, there isn't one, and doesn't appear to be one on the horizon. Fansubs are pretty much your only option, if you can track them down, and I don't believe anyone has done the entire run of either series."
____________
So, if you want Gatch F in a language other than Japanese, it necessitates tracking down unofficial fansubs (which won't be on Amazon) or the later episodes of Eagle Riders (although here the Gatch F footage is heavily edited and rearranged!). Others here may have some better advice as to where to look...
