any of you guys heard of Z Mind? I watched this week and thought

No, I haven't. What's it about?

>>14446862
3 sisters who are also mech fans get recruited in a mech called the Z mind to fight off alien invaders. it's basically a 70s mech show made in the 90s in a good way.

That mech looks rather brave ish, so this has my attention.

>Brave-ass mecha design
Oh hell yeah, I'm definitely gonna check this out.

it seems pretty cool

I got the DVD of it in the early 2000's when I was buying anything mecha-related I could find.

It's alright but pretty generic and forgettable overall. It's short enough that it's worth watching if you just want a 70's style robot fix.

I was almost convinced it was a rejected Brave design myself, but the components can't turn into vehicles, so perhaps not.

Still, it was a fun OVA. Forgettable, but charming nonetheless. There are worse ways to spend an hour or two. Watch out for the Raideen cameo.

if it were a braves design, it would have been designed by kunio okawara.

Can they turn into animals? Braves had a few of those too.

>>14449095
Nope. All they can do is combine.

Surprisingly, though, they did manage to finish off one of the alien monsters uncombined in one of the six episodes. Z-Mind doesn't have a go-to finishing move like most Braves, which also sets it apart.

>>14449095
No they're all 3 stand alone mechs

>>14446817
I've seen it. It's not awful, but it's very, very average and the ending isn't much of a conclusion.

>>14449263
It was conclusive. The problem is that they decided to sequel bait for god knows what reason.

The Z-Mind mini-series had its moments but the mecha design was what really got me...it was a classic gattai super-robot of the period.
