Greetings everyone,
During the massive surge of posting we had in the Super Robot Thread, a good number of you all expressed a way to add some better discussion and an influx of content into the general super robot show discussion. I've made this thread as a direct response to that and would like to invoke the big watch-a-thon threads the ADTRW board has participated in the past. Links on how to get the shows will be provided here. Please note and follow both the ADTRW and forum rules.



How this works:

We will be watching and discussing two shows as if they are airing for the first time. Some of us will have seen these shows, others have not. We will watch an episode of each show weekly and hold discussion, then at the end of the both shows run I have an OVA prepared as a nice finale.

The Shows



GunXSword is a love letter to both giant robot shows and classic westerns. It follows one man on a quest for revenge against the man who murdered his wife and a girl looking for her lost brother.

GunXSword has been officially licensed in America and can be found here:

Shin Mazinger is a modern retelling of the original series by G Gundam and Giant Robo director Yasuhiro Imagawa.

As of right now, Shin Mazinger hasn't been brought over to the US, however Discotek media has confirmed they are handling that.

Shin Getter vs. Neo Getter Robo is a 6 episode OVA covering the creation and use of the Neo Getter and it's team. It's a fantastic show and has some really endearing moments. We'll start this once the other two shows have concluded and once that's done, I'll open up suggestions for the next batch of shows.

The show has been licensed by Discotek and is availaible here:

In Closing
This thread is for us to enjoy a mix of good shows and discuss them. Jump in, have fun and enjoy the selection. We will get started Sunday, April 15th at 5:00pm EST.

ADBOT LOVES YOU
