Mazinkaiser -
Turbo Smashing Sensation!
Anime DVD Review
If you liked Getter Robo: Armageddon, then you'll be bonkers for this overly kinetic, rock'em-sock'em, robot smashing, thunderous epic! It is basically a slick looking version of Go Nagai's original Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger — and as fans of the old skool, we are eatin' this stuff up with broad grins
If you're not looking for a terribly deep storyline but want gobs of entertainment, this is the DVD to get. The animation is fantastic and the action is astounding. There ain't nothin' better than some popcorn, soda and a dvd of giant robots smashing up the countryside and each other. And of course, this being Go Nagai, you can expect some off-beat humor, really wacky monsters and tons of butt-kicking excitement! It's great to see these classics get a modern day facelift with excessively over-produced graphics.
Below: New improved
Mazinkaiser, and under that old school Mazinkaiser promotional art.
