Interest Stacks

Memed to death, but the robot is actually quite cool and it's a solid mecha show.

A cool compilation movie for an otherwise boring series.

Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs is a totally different show from Sei Juushi Bismark, the closest we've come to an anime version of tokusatsu.

Hated by people who like "mature anime for mature anime fans like me", but it's actually a pretty cool OVA.

This is a Brave series named Tetsujin, and it has the coolest robots in the Tetsujin franchise.

See comment for first MD Geist entry.

This show is actually quite dense and often confusing, but that doesn't make it bad -- you just need to pay attention -- and the twists near the end are quite cool and reminiscent of something you'd see in a kids' mecha like GaoGaiGar or Dendoh.

Gundam in all but name

It has a bad reputation thanks to its poor subtitles; in the raw Japanese it's actually quite good.

The ending is cool, and there are plenty of cool robots (both the hero and villain) throughout. Skip the SOL bits and enjoy the action.

A show that proves you don't need animation to make a MOTW show good and memorable. The ongoing story is quite meaty -- at first it's a more emotional GaoGaiGar then it becomes Digimon Adventure --, and there are plenty of cool designs throughout.

Look past the bad character designs, and you'll find a super cool space show.

The SD designs are cool, and it's just a Brave series in SD Gundam skin. It has a bad reputation because it's more of a Brave series than a Gundam series, but the story in the second half gets quite meaty.

Stock animation aside, this show has the coolest mobile suits and ships in Gundam and a more interesting and moving story than the original SEED. It plays with some interesting ideas like media manipulation, faking identities, and why communism can't work.

It has some pretty cool mecha and an extremely weird story, as well as some cool Gundam references.

Why would you complain about an Obari show? This is cooler than the original Dancouga because it has more interesting technology.

The show isn't that confusing; it just has a lot of factions and it's more of an adventure show about finding the truth of the world than a typical Gundam show.

An extremely weird MOTW show that's hated for not being a sequel to the previous Aquarion shows and requiring knowledge of kanji grammar and communication theory.

Bishonen sentai. How is that a bad thing?
