Rate these mecha.
not afraid to admit I lost my shit when Mazinger showed up>>22607364not bad, they manage to be similar enough that you can tell they're the same kind of machine but still visually distinct
>>22607364left is fine, right looks like an SRW reject
>>22607364Bit of a Masoukishin vibe here.
>>22607365>a fucking engagement ringWell, I guess its still better than a fucking Barrel

Everything about this feels like it would have been made 15-20 years ago
Webm attempt on the trailer.
some info gleaned from Tweets about characters>the Space Science Laboratory isn't a thing, it's just the Proton Power Lab again>Hayashi, Yamada, and Aoi are back along with a new scientist named Saeki, presumably going to play a larger role this time>Yamada and Aoi are genderswapped into women
>>22607382>>Yamada and Aoi are genderswapped into womenIn like an Akira Yamomoto sense?

>>22607379I wish i was stuck in the 2000's
>>22607379This has similar vibes as those 2000's mecha series like Heroic age down to the theme song. Also, it seems like they're going to be in Middle East a lot
>>22607389Right? I'm getting serious 2000s Reideen vibes. Though hopefully not as boring or slow or just... generally bad.
>>22607378>still using base mazinger design while grendizer is updated
>>22607435im just glad mazinger's actually making it in at all instead of koji being stuck piloting aircraft
>>22607362kouji looks like 80s hair shinji
Which way, white man?
>>22607441kek
>>22607389It would be like one of those random 2000's show that newfags would categorize as "experimental"
>>22607440He's a bit skinny. I mean it's not like he was ever Bolt Vanderhuge or anything like that but the new art style makes him come off as twiggier than normal.
I'm honestly curious on how they would portray Kouji this time
>>22607362It's alright, will definitely grow on me more over the course of the show
>>22607440Maybe he IS Shinji
>>22607455devout muslim with 21 wives
Grendizer and Mazinger look great, hope Great shows up.>>22607364Left is cool, right is ok-ish.
>>22607465Inshallah. Why make Kouji choose between Sayaka and Maria when Muhammed (Peace be upon him) would want him to have both?
>>22607362This is going to be anime of the year after Seed Freedom. I'm hyped!
>Director: FukudaWell shit
>all those shots in the middle eastThey really know their target audience lol wassim will be thrilled
>>22607674Okouchi writing too. The staff is interesting this time around. After Getter Arc, I'm glad someone at Dynamic Pro at least took a gamble instead of another sorta safe Kawagoe affair. Even though I do like most of Kawagoe's works.
Marketing for this has been weirdly different from the norm, feels like we’ve gotten more info pre-release than we usually do for anime. Like those character bios that were given half a year ago.
>>22607681Yeah, I don’t hate most of Kawagoe’s work either, but it does feel like Dynamic Pro’s been depending on him too much for too long.
>>22607439Mazinger's going to be horribly outclassed, hopedully they upgrade into something new.
>>22607692>>22607532Koji will pilot Mazinkaiser or Great Mazinger later.
So what’s the best way to watch the original Grendizer before this comes out? Any notable releases from sub groups?
>>22607692>>22607720I'm actually expecting Mazinger to get destroyed in the first episode as a refence to it's defeat at the hands of the Mycenae and as a way to justify Koji being stuck piloting Spazers. Then maybe Mazinger will get repaired later or upgraded to Kaiser.
>>22607439>>22607692>>22607720Koji will be back in the Spazer after Grendizer ends up destroying Mazinger Z, as seen picture here where Grendizer is holding Mazinger’s decapitated head.
>>22607725Unironically, dubbed to your language. Grendizer was one of the gateway shows for anime in the West.
>>22607732This is probably just Duke's nightmare, thus him going on about making Kouji promise he'd kill him if he goes out of control.
>Mazinger Z loses to Vega army>Grendizer shows up to replace it>Koji gets Kaiser later>hopefully Tetsuya joins with Great Holy shit I really hope this happens.
>>22607735Wouldn’t an early English dub censor the shit out of Grendizer? I’m assuming it’s just as crass in certain things like Mazinger and Great Mazinger was.
Why did one of the characters look like Koji?
>>22607362Good song.
Duke x Koji is back in the menu, boys!
>>22607746What do you mean? Kouji (and Sayaka, but she wasn't in this trailer) are part of the main cast.
>>22607746same universe
>>22607362Looks as good as it could be, two cours is crazy though
>>22607362Everything about this anime feels like a fever dream, like just looking at the staff you could not convince me that this is real.
>>22607778I haven't really paid much attention to the current state of the anime industry. Are two cours getting rarer like 40+ episode shows too?
>>22607785Yeah. Most shows only go for 12/13 at a time now. It says something about the level of overwork too though.
>>22607362>>22607778>>22607783Is this the power of oil money...? Of Allah...?
>>22607807The Allah Blessing
>>22607778Where's the source on this so I can show people?
>>22607778Two cours would be great
>>22607535Koji is for Duke
>>22607830Only if it's two parts two cours each.Otherwise just make it a full year thing, with a successor show airing the week after
>>22607373

>>22608003Oh shit, I can't unsee that now.
>>22607362France, Italy, and Arabia will either love it or hate it, preferring the original one.>>22607441They are fast. I wonder why they added an English version?
>>22608035No harm going for an even wider chunk of the western market
>>22608052>They are not american manchildren so I doubt it.Keep telling yourself that
>>22607450Seems similar to the original Mazinger Z.Perhaps the new series is set a little earlier and he is younger, or it could be a deliberate artstyle change.
>>22607364Right looks like a fembot.
Enemy names are Zeoladizer and Aquadizer.
>>22607612Bravern is the anime of the year.
>>22607435Grendizer's feels like more of a Mazinkaiser-fication, which is a whole separate mecha. If Mazinger's showing up with these very kaiser-inspired designs, I fully expect Mazinkaiser to show up too.
>>22608209I like them both. Zeoladizer is an especially great evil Grendizer. I want to pilot Aquadizer.
>have May to finish Great Mazinger and June to finish Grendizer, if I want the maximum amount of references and foreknowledge of any foreshadowing or teasing the show will do before playing it straight or pulling a twistCan I make it
>>22608642May Aniki's spirit from the heavens help you on your viewing adventures with the /m/azin power. MAZIN GO
>>22608652Thank you, it's 44 eps of Great and 74 for Grendizer.>118/61 is just 1.934Wait, do I really just need to watch 2 eps a day? But I still have other stuff I promised (You?) to watch, and one show I picked up for medicinal reasons
>>22608665I dunno. Back in mid-late Dec. 2022, I watched like 5-6 episodes of Great Mazinger per day. However, doing that most likely fucked over how much I remembered the series' content and starts to blur/mix up on me.
>>22608456mazinkaiser is non-canon...Mazing Great should be in.
>>22608685>anon remembers the crow showing up for three or four hour-long episodes before he went back to his home planetI'm in no position to accurately gauge whether or not the quality's dipped from Z, but I hope Grendizer's back on the up and up.I also wish I kept track of what I watched and when, it's all a vague but happy blur, but there's quite a few things I should revisit. Z I can look back fondly on, and I do hope Tetsuya and Great show up in U also.
Kaishin no Ichigeki is a an amazing song.
>>22608710I can rest assure that the crow doesn't have a presence in Grendizer and especially doesn't appear in Grendizer's Boss episodes.
>>22608879This is the second best news I've heard all month
Finally, a show to stop arabs and french people from fighting each others
>>22609178Swarthy people the world over will band together over their love of Dynamic Pro works. Nagai and Fukuda will bring peace to the Middle East.
I'll laugh if Mazinger Z is destroyed and the improved new version is renamed Mazinger U.
>>22607391It gives me a similar vibes to a 2000's Gonzo anime
>>22608879*rest assure you
>>22609446Okay, okay, hear me out: Gren Dai-Mazinger
>>22607379Hopefully this means it's worth watching, then.
So, is Sayaka going to pilot anything?
>>22609565Yeah, my cock
>>22607389Middle East money. (Saudi prince is fans of grendizer, he have money, so he sponsored the new game and new anime)Hopefully he sponsored more mecha show
>>22609446It will be turned into Mazinkaiser after it gets destroyed.>>22609565She'll probably pilot a version of her normal mech.>>22609570Go to bed, Koji.
>>22609565Do it you madmen!
>>22609565Raaga, of course.>>22609736You just like MazinSaga pilot suit.
>>22609750I can like a lot of things
>>22609561Great suggestion.
>>22609857Does she have no shame?
>>22609446Considering the naming scheme of the new Grendizer-like mecha, make Kouji gets a "Mazindizer".
Is there a reason they went for the manga colors when the Toei version is the most popular?
>>22609981Shame is for people who have something to be shameful for. If she had anything to regret it was never being able to fight beside the person she loves. You call this shameful? I call it it courage, I call it passion and I call it love. And if you find shame in that then I pity you.
>>22609987Okay, but "Mazin Go", or "Dizer Go"?You also have to consider that those are alien made robots, while Koji would likely make the Z replacement (or upgrade) himself.
>>22610023Mizer Go

>>22607362rip TFO lmao
>>22610638I'll be a miracle if Mazinger isn't trashed in its first fight, so the TFO could still appear.
>>22610534It's the hair.
>>22610772The TFO hasn't been in any trailers or promotional material. Really, there's no good reason to keep it.
https://twitter.com/masahashi17/status/1785876893226701289
>>22610867Especially the sideburns.
Tetsuya is probably on vacation. Yeah, that begs a question: Will this show address the Myceneans?
>>22611638
>>22611644Shouldn't they all be dead?
Will they ramp up the bromolust though?
>>22611796Yes, obviously.
>>22611796Maybe. Saudi money says no, but it is Okouchi and Fukuda we're talking about here. I'm sure ancient fujos would be salty if there wasn't at least a little Duke and Koji teasing.
>>22611961How many inches will be inserted?
>>22611981All 13" girthy inches of Duke's Double Harken, of course.

>>22613179How does Z and Great defeat him there?
>>22613180they don't. he retreats after the Great General of Darkness is killed just like in the TV series, tries to ally his remnant forces with the Vegans and is later betrayed
Oi, Saeki, Yamada, and Hayashi.
>>22613581How.... largely indistinguishable from background characters they look.
>>22613581They're making them all part of the Photon Power Labs, so that means we should get Yumi as a character too? Kind of odd we haven't seen him yet.
>>22613593
>>22613593We do.
>>22613593>>22613600>>22613613Oh.
>>22607362Grendizer Go.
>>22607364I like the left one. The right... not so much.More giant mechs need capes.
>>22613593Uh shouldn't we be getting Boss as well?
>>22614303That would be the same thing to do and we can't have that. I graduated A&W, I would know.
>>22614314Hey it's not my fault.Gotta take Kouji's baggage with him where he goes.
>>22614365Boss is the best bro and you will respect the age of fatso
>>22614365>>22614377After the crow seems to have disappeared, the quality of Great eps went up, and Boss has been very helpful like how he was in Z. Unironically a great character, and it'd be an injustice if he doesn't show up. I'd begrudgingly understand if Tetsuya was absent, from not wanting to reduce the spotlight that's on Grendizer... and Z... and the new Spazers that probably combine... but you can't not have the Age of Fatso.What's interesting though is that sombrero comic relief character in Grendizer hasn't been revealed either. Are they just getting rid of all the gag characters, for the mature fujo audience? I'd get having Tetsuya and Boss as surprise reveals, but I don't know how popular this other character was.
>>22614382Fuck off, you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5l8hvO_1X8
>>22614406Do you have to make every dynamic pro thread your personal blog?
>>22614845Yeah. I can't believe he'd pick an existing thread to discuss Grendizer instead of making 30 new threads each time.
>>22614875To be fair, he's talking about Great Mazinger.
>>22614843What is that kinky outfit Sayaka is wearing?>OO LA LA OO LA LA
>>22614845He is talking a out mazinger and great, more specifically the same shit as the blogpost thread.
>>22614892It's not THAT kinky.I feel like they made her too soft/gentle though.
>>22614875He’s basically posting the same shit in the backlog thread as well. Dude iscompulsively writing about every little thing he does.
>>22614951I appreciate the 70s vibe of her outfit though I wish they would have kept her hair brown.
>>22615033I think it is fair that they gone for "black" hair, considering that they are going for Nagai's designs rather than Toei ones.
>>22615062>implirino
>>22615084Maria looks really cute.
>>22615091Sounds very cute too.
>>22615084This is probably why they decided to give Sayaka dark hair
>>22615105>all shitLul.
>>22615108Cyber Formula is the opposite of shit.
>>22615108The only one here you can conclusively say is bad is Cross Ange. I liked GPX, Dendoh (Dendoh is one of my favourite anime), and SEED, and I haven't seen Destiny yet.
>>22615121Nah. Cross Ange is pretty good and also fun.
>>22615121>I liked it so you have to say it's good
>>22615122Cross Ange would have been good if it didn't have so much sex junk. I'll admit the mecha and the rock fortress are cool, but that's about it.
>>22614951I am a fan of the tall boots. Just in general really.
>>22614845>>22614875I like Mazinger and co, and want to see their material in Grendizer UAnd I thought there'd be some people in Mazin/Grenda threads with comments or insights who weren't in the watchlist threadsSorry

>Great shows up in something: WHERE'S MUH GREN>Grendizer gets it's thing: WHERE'S MUH GURETTO!!Both annoying kid brothers.
>>22616803Fucking Imagawa, never finish shit. I bet Bandai Namco forced him to continue after Master Asia's death when he wanted to leave on a cliffhanger.
>>22616804Both just want to hang out with Z.
>>22616968Yeah well he's got better things to do. Like making it with girls.
>>22616962>sets out to tell Z's story>does exactly that>people complain
>>22617002I think people would accept that ending more if he didn't tease Great Mazinger in the very first episode, only to completely back out of that teaser in the finale (with "Blade" and Great just leaving for apparent reason).
>>22617002Z's story is more than just Z. That's like stopping at Episode 5 of Star Wars.
>>22616788>Great Mazinger has nobodyAt least he has us, right anons
>>22617017>only to completely back out of that teaser in the finale (with "Blade" and Great just leaving for apparent reason).Nah, he doubled down on the teaser, with someone asking who that was, and Inspector Ankokuji saying something along the lines of "that's another story"And then nothing...
>>22617051NTA but my theory is that they wanted to do a Shin Great but weren't sure if it would happen (and it didn't) so they decided to leave the door open without outright saying "totally-not-Tetsuya will return in Shin Great Mazinger Impact"
>>22617050That means you're nobodies.
>>22617089You didn't have to destroy Great Mazinger and its fans like that.
>>22617051I mean, that's my point. When it came the time to show the scene from the teaser, Tetsuya left for absolutely no rational reason right afterwards, with them dropping that "That's another story" line which just makes no sense in-universe.
>>22617085They had a design for it, apparently the iron cutter fist being his scrander mode>>22617089>spend your entire life training to fight freaks from Greece just to be called a nobody>>22617093>with them dropping that "That's another story" line which just makes no sense in-universe.It wouldn't have made much sense to Shiro or whoever was there, but it felt like a cute wink and a nod that there would definitely be a sequel, on account of how we have ZERO stories about Shin Great, not even a text synopsis or any answers in interviews where the FUCK is Shin Great
>>22617098>It wouldn't have made much sense to Shiro or whoever was there, but it felt like a cute wink and a nod that there would definitely be a sequel, on account of how we have ZERO stories about Shin Great, not even a text synopsis or any answers in interviews where the FUCK is Shin GreatI mean that Tetsuya leaving there just makes no sense. He clearly seemed to know about Hell's forces and had a Mazinger, but then just leaves the battlefield for noreason. Assuming this version was supposed to know Kenzo too he even should know about Ashura's plot. Tetsuya leaving there just makes no sense narrative-wise.
>>22617098>Iron CutterThat's Z's thing. It should had been a Drill Punch.
>>22616962>>22617017He faithfully made an open ending in the style of Go Nagai.
>>22617103Z didn't have Iron Cutter in Shin Mazinger though, so they could have made it into a Great thing.
>>22617107
>>22617101>then just leaves the battlefield for noreasonIirc he killed Pygman, maybe he's running off to hold back or beat up some Mycenae. We know from ep1 or 2 that Z gets beaten by Ankoku Daishogun, so presumably Great intervened so that the main cast wouldn't just be wiped out completely.>Assuming this version was supposed to know Kenzo too he even should know about Ashura's plot.Maybe the Hedorah stuff or further Mycenae research informed them, it's been a while. I don't think Tetsuya and Great leaving was the worst thing though, I completely believe that there were bigger threats to deal with than Pygman.>>22617103I would have wanted him to just turn into a sword somehow, with the Great Booster, and then have Z wield it>>22617115But is this from Shin's storyline or is this from Zero, where Mazinger starts to evolve attacks on its own
>>22617115>>22617120That's from Zero.
>>22617120But I'll add that it was FUCKing unforgivable to show Tetsuya as a pilot in the second opening. At a glance I'm sure he was piloting Great and that we'd see him in action (outside of flashbacks)

>>22617142I hate the poor TFO and I'm not exactly sure why. The game gave it some fun sections though, I'm sure I'll warm up to it when I actually finish the show and see it be helpful. He's of course allowed to be a peaceful guy, but the TFO is obviously going to feel like a downgrade if I'm watching the show.
>>22617017I would be more okay with Imagawa leaving it at Z if he sets up a normal Tetsuya instead of a very different Tetsuya that we have never seen before. It made me curious on how this "Tetsuya" would be in a full series
>>22616804>spoiled baby thinks he's smarter just because he gets all the toys for being a nostaglia bait

>>22618997Take a minute and actually go and look.
>>22619002>>22619001ok, just checked the final episode.the subs aren't excellent, but they are serviceable and use the correct names (unlike Mazinger Z and Getter Robo subs)

>>22622226>>22622232The director usually has more control over the direction of the story though. We haven't seen any school stuff here at all.
>>22622226You'll get Haruto Kouji and Duke L-Elfleed and you'll like it!

What was your first reaction to this?
ZAY-OOS
>>22622226Boy, I just hope Okouchi's bad habits are able to be reigned in.If I have to see him sideline yet another character who has great chemistry with the hero for no reason other than melodrama (e.g. Kallen from CG and Saki from VVV), I don't know if I can take it.
>>22615084are they going to have Maria into Kouji like the original?
>>22621042>American company touching GrendizerMutts hate Grendizer as much as they hate Hitler for some reason
>>22623234>Hurrrrr durrrrrrr
>>22607366>not afraid to admit I lost my shit when Mazinger showed upGood, even after Grendizer was officially bumped to "alternate timeline" status instead of "canoin timeline" by Mazinger Infinity, we still have sweet, sweet Mazinger + Grendizer action.
>>22623234>Mutts hate GrendizerMutts barely know who Mazinger is, let alone Grendizer.
>>22623526With Mazinkaiser getting a dub and Infinity showing in theaters and also getting a dub ?
It'd be nice if this tard went away
>dat boy band musicEww…
>>22623568Mazinkaiser always had a dub.

https://www.tokyo-np.co.jp/article/326121A Wajima-nuri panel depicting "Devilman," a masterpiece of 78 year old manga artist, Go Nagai from Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and 79 year old jewelry designer, Mitsuo Kaji. have collaborated to create a jewelry piece that will be displayed and sold at the Sobi Exhibition, a jewelry exhibition to be held on June 8 and 9 at the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo's Chiyoda Ward. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Wajima City, which was severely damaged by the Noto Peninsula earthquake.
>>22623195No idea, is the show brave enougb foe two love triangles?
>>22626600>Maria
>>22626611>>22623195Maria never stood a chance.
>>22626611Man the Z series never forgive Grendizer for making Kouji a sidekick.
I wonder what the twist for the Rubina/Terrona situation is. Its weird they went for a nameswap at all.
>>22623727I'm pretty excited to get the OVA but I'd like to see the disc art and inside.
https://hjweb.jp/article/1467158/
>>22627484That head for Aphrodite looks like the one from Mazinkaiser.
>>22628423It's from the original manga.
>>22628431I rather liked the Shin one myself. Also,I did find it odd Venus didn't have boob missiles.
>>22622226If fukuda is the head of production it'll be another ange/freedom trashfire. You won't be bored at least.
>>22628440I think Mazinger might have been the first series to get me to actually care or have interest in artbooks and design sheets
>>22611644Unless he died like the manga or got crippled like in Nagai's God Mazinger planning.
>>22626749It looks like they split the princess into twins so they could have one (Rubina but with the blond Terrona design) continue to be Duke's love interest and "the princess", while the other (Terrona but with the Rubina design) could be a badass fighter.

>>22630031Do you kiss your frog with that mouth?
>>22630032I'm not French, but yes, I love frogs as pets
>>22630035gross
>>22630038how can you hate this?
>>22626611Is this from Shin Mazinger Zero or the sequel manga?
>>22630144The latter
>>22626611do you think Japan was also assblasted when Amuro became a side character in Zeta?
>>22630041How could you eat this?
>>22630230They were like that with Kira in Destiny before he became the main character again in the end, weren't they?
>>22617219
>>22623593oct 7th sure was bad for your people huh
>>22630893Bayformers were a mistake
>>22630893>>22631613Overdetailed designs aren't great, but they do help the forearm panels needed for the decent elbow bend to blend in nicely. They're much better in-hand than they look in the art. Although no, I don't know why they decided to make super robots look like real robots either.
>>22607362looks fun but I'm not gonna watch it because I never finished Mazinger, Great Mazinger and the original Grendizer and that's necessary to enjoy a remake to the fullest;
>>22631752But it's based on Nagai's versions and not Toei's?
>>22631752Anon I really get that mindset as I'm finishing these shows before the deadline, but I'm also almost sure that they'll make this enjoyable for newcomers as well, rather than assuming everyone has a 50-year old trilogy fresh in their minds. I'm sure they'll play some Grendizer plotlines straight and give surprises in others, so I get not wanting to miss out on maximum references, but we all have to start somewhere, and I don't think there'd be shame in getting into the franchise from Grenidzer U or Shin Mazinger.>tfw pretty sure Fleed's engaged princess will die at some point in the original show, but U seems to have made her two separate characters>>22631757But the manga ended after Fleed killed one measly general
>>22631759>But the manga ended after Fleed killed one measly generalLeaving more for interpretation, yes.
>>22631771How about Go Nagai actually finishes his robot mangas
>>22631752Based on what they've shown so far I really doubt that is the case. This sounds like a really loose adaptation so if you like stuff from the original series you might end up disliking it not being here.
>>22631779No.
>>22631757>maria>nagai
>>22631917It's a reference to Giga, though the design is based on Mazinger Angels.
>>22631939>GigaWrong>AngelsNot by Nagai
>>22610206Wasnt his Brain placed back into a organic clone body before VS Great General of Darkness?
>>22609857>>22610016Does MazinSaga have a full Scanlation somewhere? At first I though this was something designed by the Shin Mazinger ZERO authors (considering what they turned Minerva X into), so it surprised me when this turned out to a Go Nagai original (even though I should have considered it).
>>22616786Werent Greatfags vindicated with VS Great Emperor of Darkness to begin with? They give Great and Tetsuya a lot of screentime and importance in the story. Still a shame he ends up as support or jobber duty in the Mazinkaiser works and Infinity.Such is the fate of Super Robots that dont become massively popular in a third world country during times of political turmoil.
Is this the same Fukuda as in the main guy behind Gundam SEED? Its making me worry just a little, I havent watched his other shows like Cross Ange yet to convince myself that he is particularly good.>>22630230>>22630333Japanese SEED fans being ass blasted about Kira not being the main character seems like a unique thing to me because of how popular SEED became. Greatfags and Grendizerfags may squabble with rach other or Z fags, but they still know they're ultimately comrades. Amuro gets to flirt with Char in Zeta, so I believe most fans were satisfied with his role in the series, especially after CCA but a nice bow on it in retrospect. None of them would send hate mail to the showrunners like the SEED fans did during Destiny.
>>22632040Yes, it is him.
>>22631752>>22631759I get this mindset concerning Mazinger and Getter Robo. Only having read the manga makes you feel a little out of the loop when all the derivative material seems to be based on the TV series and not the former.Props to anyone that actually went back to watch hundreds of episodes that were only meant to be watched on a week to week basis, I couldnt stand it anymore after watching a couple of episodes of TV Getter Robo and Gatchaman. You either binge them and get burned out or spread out your viewing arcoss fucking years.
>>22632049>Getter>derivative material seems to be based on the TV series Are you high
Just watch the first three episodes and last three of each show and you're good to go.
>>22631997>WrongBut it had a Maria (two of them in fact).>Not by NagaiYeah, but more importantly not related to Toei either.
>>22632030>Werent Greatfags vindicated with VS Great Emperor of Darkness to begin with?We were, but that's unvoiced and unanimated, and Zero-related SRW entries for Great didn't even have him as absurdly powerful as he was there. In terms of animated glory, it peaked with his return in the Mazinkaiser OVA and things went downhill from there.
>>22632040>I havent watched his other shows like Cross Ange yetYou should try Future GPX Cyber Formula and Gear Fighter Dendoh instead.
>>22632131>Gear Fighter Dendohnot fully subbed yet for some reason
>>22632166learn Japanese or Italian
>>22632200That advice is also applicable to >>22632024
>>22632024I have the full set just don't know where to upload them.
>>22628440Which was weird, Sayaka's Venus had them in the original manga.
>>22632584It had them in Mazinkaiser too. Did it have them in ZERO?
>>22632596Nah, just Finger Missile and Z Cutter.
>>22632576>>22632200I am learning japanese. Guess I'll go out and look for raws.
>didn't realize that Marquis Janus' seiyuu was the same as Baron Ashura's (female)>>22632576Just a mega is fine if you wanted to share it with anons
>>22633041most Mazinger and Getter books are from kids magazines, so they should be a good training in learning to read Japs...Mazinsaga was from a SEINEN magazine
