Great episode compared to the last one. Good animation for Rust Hurricane and Breast Fire. Also in the spotlight: Kouji's rage. Pretty long opening arc so far.

Great animation, also nice to hear another cool & hyperbolic explanation from the narrator during the rust hurricane.
Nice to see the true "demon", raging, version of the Mazinger for once.

However this opening arc has become really too long, I hope the plot move on and evolve from the next episode onwards.

Oh and judging by the next episode preview, that's the end of the arc.

Shin Mazinger: A great show, but a greater potential drinking game.

I mean seriously, taking shots between yelling attack names and when the narrator flips out over something alone would do you in after a few episodes of this.

This series is so ridiculously over-the-top Gar that it makes Gurren-Lagann seem like a Sunday morning pre-school shoujo series in comparison... LOL

But then, that's a lot of what makes this series so much fun!

Well, Mazinger is becoming more and more violent. It actually killed pepole. The whole story is still idiotic, but it definitely best episode so far.

Come again? Mazinger Z is idiotic, yet a boy who changes gender when water touches him, and a benevolent teenage pirate made out of rubber are not? Unless you mean idiotic in a positive way...?

Anyway, love this episode. Don't mind the prolonged arc at all, we are getting a fantastic alternative to the monster of the week formula. Small touches like keeping Grandpa Kouji alive for this long really allows this show to appear as a love letter to the original anime and manga.

Good episode but one of the least impressive for now. Still epic win though.

Hopefully this ends next episode. We need less standing around and more badassness to be shown.

As much as I like this so far, Count Brocken, all the new (but old) mechabeasts appearing this episode etc but o they really have to drag it out and have it all at once, it's still just one battle and it's still night lol

So, they even want to "renovate" the classic introduction double episodes approach? By making th?m three?!

3/5 It was long !!!
