Super Dimension Century Orguss is the second of the Super Dimension Trilogy, the first being Super Dimension Fortress Macross and the third being Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross. These are all unrelated series made by the same people they just carry the same title of Super Dimension. In the US release of Robotech, they used both Macross and Southern Cross, however instead of Orguss they used Genesis Climber Mospeada instead. This lead to Orguss becoming obscure as it was never made popular. Well it's not like I would of felt any better if Harmony Gold got it's hands on this and made a censored version. ... However because of that it's terrible abomination of a sequel (Orguss 02) is the only way anyone knows of this.

​Being made right after Macross you can see how similar it is and how much they improved. The cels are a lot more detailed, the plot is just as complex. It wasn't until last year that I discovered this anime and I enjoyed it as much as I did the original Macross many years ago. It has everything you need, action, suspense, aliens and robots just like Macross. Even though it's been over a year, this is still the last great anime I've watched. 10/10 Perfection.

Don't let that question mark fool you like it did me, this anime is well over a hundred episodes long. At first I thought, "Hey this seems to be around 13 episodes long due to it being episodic." Boy was I wrong. This show drags out in a way that makes you sick inside. As it goes further in, it makes less and less sense. The main character Ichigo, loses a fight. So he powers up, has another sword fight and wins. Which I think is the plot to DBZ, just without the swords. It's beyond me how any of these characters retain their mental ... sanity. If I was pulled into another dimension where I have to fight endless amounts of zombies, (they aren't alive so technically they are zombies) I'd start freaking out. The more he fights the more dull it feels, like it loses it's meaning. So they took your girlfirend who lives in your closet for a month, that's no reason to go to the depths of hell to stop them from killing her. Like what? But it never stops getting weird and awkward. In my opinion it's in your best interest, just don't watch this anime. I'm only trying to help you out. Thanks for reading it all~

I forced my way though around 43 episodes before dropping this, so you can't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about. This has to be one the worst animes ever made. I'd recommend Mars of Destruction before this. Naruto seemed to have potential at a first go, oh maybe it's going somewhere! Then it doesn't. So much for the plot. The art, is decent. Not really good enough to wow me. The sound was decent as well, but nothing worth talking about. The characters are awful, with no depth to them at all. If you are going to drop it for anything, ... it's going to be the shallow characters. Overall I didn't enjoy this. Nor should anyone watch this anime, ever. Go watch something good, like FMA or GTO.
