5 /10

Extremely plain 80s mech anime that struggles to justify its episode length. It starts off as pretty good "sister-series" to Gundam ZZ, light hearted and enjoyable. But commits the cardinal sin of "being boring", as it starts to ignore the group dynamic of the main trio and focus either Kaine, or later in the show, a goofy Mad Max inspired enemy squad. This part was especially disheartening, as they had already introduced interesting foils in the dutybound Char Aznable-clone Meio Plato and his group of loyal subordinates. These characters, as well as ongoings of the evil Giganos Empire, too is sidelined to make wayfor the meaningless shenanigans with this squad.

The show from the beginning had a lot of Gundam ideas copied over, but in the last couple episodes hits the viewer over the head with a lot of Zeon imagery while tension is low since the narration in plain terms tells the viewer that things are going well. Oh yeah, and the suit designs are overall middling. Hard to recommend unless you just really like robots.
