One of the best anime series ever, 11 November 2001
Author: audby from Spokane, WA

Along with Robotech, this series was one of those that shaped my childhood (I know, pathetic). Incorporating a love interest, David-vs.-Goliath theme, and some of the best in Japanese animation, this series is one that any adult could easily love as much as any child.
