Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - WHAT A GREAT START TO AN ADVENTURE!
The only reason I didnt give this volume 5 stars was because episode 2 had such a long recap of episode 1.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Didn't like it.
I couldn't even watch the whole episode on the tape. (There is only the first episode on the tape)

The animation is really old looking.
Still, if it looks good, I don't really mind that.

There was this one bad guy that looked absolutely ridiculious. And the giant robo was really ugly.

Also, I watched for a while and it was rather boring.
Although, I didn't see much of this series- maybe the story gets more interesting. Some shows start off slow.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great EARLY 90's anime series
The previous reviewer stated that it's not bad for a 60's anime and seems to remember watching it in the 70's/80's. That would be pretty hard as this series came out in Japan in 1992. It's very loosely based on the earlier live action TV series from 1967-68, but with better action and no cheese-factor. For more detailed reviews, read the reviews on the individual DVD releases on Amazon (vols 1, 2, 3 + the Ginrei Special), those guys know their anime. I think it's the best giant mecha anime ever, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "Crush them now, Giant Robo!"
How on earth does one describe Giant Robo? A creation utilizing the skills of some the biggest talents ever to work on animation in Japan, telling an Epic story in a few short hours, showcasing some of the finest animation of all time, with a depth of storyline and strength of dialog missing from the biggest of blockbusters, with enough over-the-top action and melodrama to make all super-hero movies look like cheap hacks, and a sweeping orchestral score that's second to none...only begins to scratch ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Not bad for a 1960's anime
I do recall this show but I remember from at least the late 70's to early 80's it was on in the afternoon after school. I loved it the previous posts nailed it right on the head for its cheese factor but they forgot to mention that the good guys were called Unicorn and Johnny was U-7. Plus a few monsters they missed were Scallion a giant reptile with armpits flaps he also spits out acid from his nose. The Claw: a huge robotic claw controled by his classmates.
