Synopsis

Dr. Hell and his Mechanical Beasts are back, and they're more dangerous than ever before. Kouji Kabuto and Tetsuya Tsurugi fight a fierce battle against these hellish machines, which are under the command of Baron Ashura. Unfortunately, they are defeated, with Kouji's Mazinger Z being captured and Tetsuya's Great Mazinger seriously damaged by the enemy.

The devious Dr. Hell quickly converts the captured robot into Ashura Mazinger and uses it to attack the Photo Power Lab. At the same time, Kouji is missing in action, which leaves Testuya to defend the lab in the damaged Great Mazinger. But the forces of Dr. Hell are too strong, even for a brave pilot such as Tetsuya, and all seems to be lost.

The battle seems to be drawing to a close, until an overpowering blast fired by an unknown robot destroys the entire Mechanical Beast army. Could this mysterious robot be the legendary Mazinkaiser, and who is piloting it?

Mazinkaiser is based on one of the first super robot shows, Go Nagai's Mazinger Z. I'd heard a lot of good things about this seven episode OVA so I was excited to see it.

Although there is already a 5 review, I disagree with the reviewer on one aspect in that he concludes that it was the lack of over-arching plot that hurts this show.

I just can't view it that way because this is how it is for classic Super Robots and this remake could be considered as elevating the quality of these normally tedious Super Robot stories.

If anything had Mazinkaiser been further modernized as having an over-arching plot it will only worsen the depth of the characters involved in this series.

That said, Mazinkaiser primarily failed in my opinion because it wasn't able to elevate the same euphoric feeling ...
