I submit to you that this is the standard for a truly great Japanese series. In this thread, you will suggest series that are as good as, if not better than this.
Shin Mazinger Z was pretty good If you are looking for more Epic super robot stuff. Then there is always Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>>44647Good until about 2/3rds of the way into the Chapter Black saga. Opinions! Sorry.>>44651Shin Mazinger I'll have a look at. LoGH I've heard a lot about, but it would have to be the best fucking anime ever to justify the 20gig 110+ episode download.
>>44656I downloaded it in 10 episode blocks so I could watch it while the rest was downloading. I have never gotten a single negative reaction from any of my friends I introduced it too.
>>44672After watching it, anytime you listen to classical music you'll be hearing *pshoo-pshoo* sounds in your mind.
>>44681Speaking of classical music I can't believe how massive Giant Robo's OST is. Apparently all great anime music comes from the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra.
