ITT: Talk about your favorite 70s super robot anime and manga.
I've finally finished Toeizinger, and it was altogether pretty good. The biggest criticism I have is that it was probably longer than it should've been. Even though the filler episodes could still be entertaining, if the whole show was compressed into about 30 or 50 episodes, it probably would've been much, much better overall. The "major" episodes were great.
Either way, I loved the characters, especially the villains and their infighting. The gallery of mechanical beasts were awesome, and it was great seeing things that would become standards for super robot anime for the first time. Also, Misato is so superior to Sayaka that it isn't funny. She should've been given Diana A, and Sayaka should've been left to ride along with Boss.

Why would we want to talk about trash?
>>15662729
Mazinger is kino and you are stupid
>>15663358
It is a shitty meme, yeah.
>>15663374
How do you sleep at night considering you're entire existence is a meme?
>>15663381
Wonderfully.

Way to derail a good thread, thanks for nothing.

Nice one.

I personally had a lot of fun with the "filler"- the more the merrier, I guess. Perhaps you don't need to watch every last episode to have gotten the brunt of the series, but regardless I think the entire thing was fun through and through.
I also agree with you on Misato, though I think it would be more optimal to give her another robot somehow rather than remove Sayaka completely. Boss needs room to be Boss, after all.
Also sometimes I had a laff.
Reminder not to reply to bait.

So if I only have time to watch one, which is better - legit Discotek-subs-zinger or crabsticks-zinger?
>>15664321
I'd put in my vote for Discotek, because while crabsticks may be hilarous, the Discotek subs are in actual English and you can easily understand what's going on in-show without much effort.
>>15664328
And also the video quality on discotek is better than the bootleg crabsticks
Just watched Vs. Ankoku Daishogun. Excellent animation, and the last battle was kickass. Now I understand why SRC Mazinger comes with a sword.
Zambot 3 is going to be the next 70s show I watch, but I hope the rest of Great Mazinger gets subbed soon. I can't wait to watch it.

Mazinger Z merch comes with a sword because in SRW, it often has combo attacks with Great Mazinger where it gets passed a Mazinger Blade
>>15666034
This a dumb post. Mazinger Z gets a sword in SRW because of what happens in Vs. Ankoku Daishogun.
>>15667406
Super Robot Wars did it first
>>15667475
>SRW predates Mazinger Z movie from 1974
Whoa
