Great Mazinger is a fun follow up watch after Mazinger Z, but it is not quite up to par with it. That's not to say it isn't worth while though, it was still a good series. I'll do my best not to make the entire review a Mazinger Z/Great Mazinger comparison, but it was hard for me not to constantly compare the two since I marathoned them back to back.

Great Mazinger picks up right where Mazinger Z leaves off and ...
