Maz will use the Rust Hurricane next episode, so I guess Juuzo is gonna teach Kouji's some lessons about piloting.

The Kouji in Shin Maz is a weaksauce, in the original manga, Kouji manages to defeat the Doublas/Garada the first time he's on pilot seat (and without Juuzo's help no less).

really? haven't read any of the manga... but i thought they said that Shin Maz will follow more closely what's on the manga? or is it just for the designs?

This Shin Mazinger is actually a mixture of the original manga, Z Mazinger's mythos (the whole Zeus thing belongs to Z Mazinger) and some other Nagai works (Violence Jack and Mao Dante), so I can't say for sure yet.

And the design of the new Mazinger is actually taken from Ken Ishikawa's one shot Mazinger Z manga.

Just finished watching the stream, oh god, another cliffhanger. But this is a very fricking good episode.

finally found time to watch ep 5... cool, Groizer x-10 sighting... Garada turned into dust and Doublas got fried :lol: ...

No tears for poor Juuzo? ;_;

Posted

it was just so obvious that he was gonna die... if not this ep., maybe the next and so on... and i figured it was bound to happen soon so as to motivate Kouji to kick ass... also to become a factor in Kouji walking the fine line between becoming a god or a devil...

Shiro's tears were more than enough... :p

Is there a subbed ep 6 yet? I'm finally home, so I can torrent the eps if I need to. :D

Gattai is a bit slow this time.

Btw, what do you think of the series so far, promethuem?

I think the series so far can be sum up as "oldschool badass".

I've watched up to ep 5 so far... I'm only 20 and have only very recently developed any interest in the pre-80s 'super robots', but I've been thoroughly enjoying this new Mazinger so far. It has a definitely unique retro funk to it, and the over the top badassness is an awesome change of pace from the gritty real-robot stories I usually prefer like Patlabor or VOTOMs.

photon beam is badass!... seems like Dr. Hell and Mistress Tsubasa Nishikiori have some kind of history... that's for the next ep. :)

if you like this new Mazinger anime series (and in case you haven't watched it yet)... you should check out the Mazinkaiser OVAs... my fave is ep.4 ;):lol:

Episode 4? Isn't that the beach episode? That ep was funny, but it wasn't as epic as the first episode or last episode.

Anyway, aside from Mazinkaiser (which is a must for Super robot fan), you should get Giant Robo: The animation and Tetsujin 28 2004 due to the similar style and execution (all these shows are directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa).

yep... LOL, just teasing that it's my fave ep coz of the fanservice :lol: ... for me ep 1 was the most epic, then the last ep, and next is the Ankoku Dai Shogun OVA...

It's too bad that Lori and Loru keep dying (I think they even died in the new series) by being squeezed there

Thanks for the link anyway REBirth! It's still easier to DDL for me, since I'm only spending time on my little netbook and still haven't set up my desktop yet since returning home.

I actually watched some of the Mazinkaiser OVA on Youtube, but the whole OVA series is not complete on there... the first two or three eps are tho, and they are thoroughly awesome. I really do need to get that on DVD or something. The Mazinkaiser movie is on there complete, and is totally sick... inspired me to get the MK Revoltech.

I've been thinking about putting in the effort to find the new Gaiking... is it any good? I've watched Shin Getter Robo, which was a mess to a casual fan like me, I've watched Dancouga Nova, which was bland and stock-footage heavy, and I started to watch Shin Jeeg, but that seemed just as fan-servicey and bland as Dancouga Nova. Mazinkaiser and Shin Maz are the ones so far that really appealed to me with the right balance of old-school funk and balls to the walls action.

Neo Gaiking is very good, tbh, one of the best remake series so far. Please don't mind the first slow episodes.

Shin Jeeg becomes good at midway, you should finish it.

Shin Getter Armageddon (the 90s one) is indeed a mess if you aren't familiar with the Getter series, but the New Getter Robo series is good and very easy to get into, check it out.

The lady with pigtails looks familiar. :mellow: But for the life of me I can't remember which episode of MZ I saw her before. :mellow:

I noticed that Mazinkaiser's Theme was sung by JAM Project, a group where Fukuyama Yoshiki is now a part of :)

Here is Gamia (actually there are 3 of them which is why there is a Q3 designation)
