Effect Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 (edited) I've never seen any of the Getter Robo series but from what I understand this OVA which was released in 2004 was a alternate retelling of the original series. How was it? Are there any plans to redo the other series in new animation, alt retellings, or just a sequel after this new OVA? Thanks. Edited April 9, 2005 by Effect Quote
Panon Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 New Getter Robo isn't bad. A lot of fun early on, although it starts to turn a little confusing after the halfway point, and the ending was a bit bizarre. It was much better than the abortion that was Getter Robo Armageddon. Quote
glane21 Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 I think it kicks ass! However the ending did not lend itself to a sequel. The series has already been reimagined twice more in the OVAs Shin Getter Robo vs. Neo Getter and New Shin Getter Robo. Each time is a slight twist on the same characters and story. Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa know how to milk a franchise but at least it gets us new toys every few years. Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 Didn`t watch yet but my friends say its awesome, it`s a remake based on the original Getter Robo. Quote
ShadowerV2 Posted April 9, 2005 Posted April 9, 2005 Can someone PM the an explaination of the ending to me? I watched the HK DVDs and it somewhat confused me. SPOILER! Just what happened to Ryoma? Quote
