Yet if it had aired in the 70's it would have probably been seen as revolutionary and been far more accepted in it's initial run than the original Mobile Suit Gundam TV series was. It feels a lot like the original series if it had tried to stick more still to the simplicity of the Super Robot franchises that preceded it than the original Mobile Suit Gundam TV series, which is what was actually most off putting thing about the original Gundam to audiences when it first aired. The fact that is was so unfamiliar and different to the likes of Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, Brave Reideen was actually seen as a mark against watching it.
