Sentou Mecha Xabungle · review
I just finished this anime yesturday, I'm surprised at how fast I devoured this anime! For a 1982 anime, I must say the art is pretty decent and I got used to it quickly. The soundtrack is appealing and the characters design is alright. The voice acting is well done and the seiyuus are well choosen, but noisy it's at time. (a lot of screaming or loud voices but i'm sensitive so maybe that's just me) The sound quality is good for a 40 years old anime. The characters are lovable and the personnalities are varied. The villains are also as lovable as the mainscharacters. The fight scenes were fun to watch, often creative. The story get really interesting as the episodes goes by. The humour is refreshing and very lighthearted , it has a taste that you rarely find in moderns animes. The last scene of the ending made me laugh a lot it was simply perfect I rarely laughed that much in a last episode. Considering it's a 40 years old anime, I must say the females characters were pretty modern and badass for it's time.
But I must say it's an anime of it's time, it has a lot of free violence (underlings getting hit randomly, Chill (8-9 years old girl) getting hit pretty often by some crew members, Girls getting hit and slapped often etc. It is mostly used in a comedic way but it can be triggering.
