O_O This series gets better and better. The name of the series is "Giant Robo" and if the robot dies the anime ends.

What an episode! What an action-packed thrilling and emotional ride, indeed it only gets better.

I shall re-watch the first 2 episodes to get a better understanding of everything now, since I still feel a little lost in the whole plot. It's worth it.

Thrilling stuff this is. What an amazing anime.

Man, that episode was AWESOME! It was better than the last ones, and finally my suspicions were true: Vogler is actually his son, and Ginrei is her sister.

Poor Taiso. He died like a hero. I hope the green woman and the monk haven't died.

I'm really excited to the next episodes and see how it ends.

Wow absolutely loving this show so far, how the hell is this thing not rated higher!? Anyone who's a fan of anime should watch this show, perfect example of good storyline, characters, world, animation, and just plain fun level.

Everything feels forced and cliched, still pretty good.

This surely is the middle episode, and what a great one at that. I'll save my full thoughts for after it's over, but so far it's been the perfect blend of cheese and sincerity. It's predictable as all hell, but it pulls it off so successfully that those clichés have life breathed into them anew. You simply cannot call it anything but full spirited.

Taiso went down like a champ. So did his wife. Both scenes were excellent. I loved the animation this episode, especially that scene where Ginrei is running down the sewer and the smoke is quickly coming after here. Very impressive.

Well it was good episode and indeed many stuff happened but they didn't felt as engaging as the events in very first episode of the series and various events of this episode were actually expected too.

Is "Emmanuel" Genya's real name? That's crazy.

Didn't expect so many deaths in this series, but maybe the cartoony atmosphere it has is meant to throw you off.

RIP Taiso aniki... and please Daisaku, stop whining, lol.


Of the several cool badass robots shown in the intro, are they really gonna give us just a giant ball as the enemy?

The animation is really superb, thought.
