Finally, after years, I finished watching the Mazinger Toei trilogy and it's a fun trilogy. Mazinger Z is a mix of comedy, action, and slice-of-life drama. Great Mazinger is that but way more cartoony for some reason. then Grendizer comes way more serious with melodrama and romance.
Now I understand why some people find Z more enjoyable than Grendizer or vice versa depending on which show they started with. both shows are very different.
Z's first 20 episodes were kinda boring. around the time of Jet Scrander the show becomes way better. from Episode 60 onwards it became actually amazing.
Great Mazinger wasn't really fun which is a shame since I like Great's design the most out of the three Mazingers.
Grendizer starts off great. Loved the serious and horror-ish atmosphere of the first part. halfway the show started to be more like its prequels by adding slice-of-life drama and more humor. it has the best mecha battles and music.btw, I want to re-watch Getter Robo since last time I did it had crab stick subs. Does it have good subs now?>>22924558 >Great Mazinger is that but way more cartoony
