Review

I was a little kid in the Philippines when this anime aired on television, so it definitely has a nostalgic appeal that gives it an unfair advantage when I compare it to other giant-mecha anime. I rewatched this series in Japanese with English subs, and I saw it in a whole new light. I think this anime is the quintessential giant robot anime. I really have nothing bad to say about it. Other than... with old-school robot anime like this, you either get it... or you don't. OR you're Filipino and you love this anime because you used to sing the opening theme song withyour family whenever it was on. The English dub (done by Filipinos with limited English skills) was pretty terrible. I don't think anyone would appreciate it unless you were there to experience it back in the day. So if you're interested, stick to the Japanese with English subs. I give this anime ten thumbs way up.
