    By far one of my all time favorites. Fond memories of Toonami are sparked by this. The soundtrack and setting are perfect and the art style fits it like a glove.

    Too bad this isn't the dub. It was an amazing dub and the awesome Steve Blum voiced the main character :)
  • The intro (from Ep 2 onwards) is so a parody of flash Gordon Love it :)
  • Classic series, I like it better than some of the more recent mecha type animes, maybe not as deep but fun to watch. Also the op song is really easy to sing along with XD
