Wooo Hoo!
More Giant Robot Piloting Teenagers.
It makes me wonder if anyone in Japan can do anything other than the kids. According to anime world, children are the all encompassing ass kickers. While if you are over 16; man you are doomed.
See Gundam for the perfect example.
There are reasons why I like shows like GITS. The protagonists aren't teenieboppers, just hot ass kicking cyborgs!
