One of my alltime favorites.. Giant Robo is a mecha anime project which took nearly a decade in the making, a remake of the GR original of roughly 30 years further past. The series consists of seven action packed episodes, each with their share of drama, battle and a stunning (live) orchestral soundtrack to accompany it all. "Can happyness be achieved without sacrifice?" is a returning question, leading the story further along its path, a path which twists at every turn: what exactly happened ten years ago, at the world-shaking tragedy at Bashtarlle? The truth seems to change with every episode, and will only be revealedat the end...

Good character development, and sort of a tribute to the series' original creator, featuring characters from various of his series in one giant spectacle. Pity about the first episode, which I found a bit mediocre (as is usual with introduction episodes it seems) else it wouild've gotten a perfect ten...
