(in case you're wondering, DVD #10 was Saint Seiya volume 1 w/ box)

I'm not expecting this to be top 10 material, but I am expecting to mildly enjoy it. (a high "good" on ANN's ratings scale, at least) If its on or below par with what I'm expecting, I plan to sell it for more than I bought it, but we'll see.

Spoiler:

Episode 1

Spoiler:

-I came in expecting plenty of G Gundam-like hotbloodedness. The first episode didn't disappoint.
-Goh looks pretty masculine for a harem lead. Usually they're either wiry or scrawny and look like about a C or lower on the manliness scale.
-Why does everyone want Anna so bad? Godannar's world is filled with hot girls.
-Hilary Haag always does a great job at making her roles lovable... These little spaz-fests wouldn't be anywhere near as cute as they are if it were your average VA doing it.
-Hilary Haag, Tifanny Grant, AND Kira Vincent Davis all in the same show? That's EPIC.

Episode 2

-Episode wasn't as good as the first one... still pretty entertaining, though.
-Goh's the man of the house! When he says "get in the kitchen and stay there", he means it, dammit!
-If that blonde chick is the one that I've seen a whole bunch of screencaps of, she looks a LOT hotter with her hair straight down. I never thought that she looked all that great with her hair up and the lipstick and everything...
-Is all the nudity exclusive to the DVD version? I don't remember seeing it in any of the screencaps that I saw.

Episode 3

-Great episode. I was smiling all the way through.
-xD @ the OP!
-So I guess that the blonde chick wasn't the one that I was thinking of. She looks even less attractive in her pilot's uniform. Her voice isn't helping, either.
-Hawt British girl is HAWT!
-I hope that the English, American, and Chinese teams stick around... They're too likable to be minor characters. The Russian team's kinda lame, though.

Episode 4

-So is this going to be one of those shows where all of the support characters aren't capable of doing anything more than supporting the leads while they destroy the enemy? This show's supporting cast deserves better.
-I forgot that a lot of the girls in this show had a crush on the male lead... at least it doesn't look like everybody aside from Anna is going to be left alone at the end.

Episode 5

-"Hahahaha! Lou, you're getting really good a-" *Lou presses a button* *ship that she's supposed to be guiding in gets cut in half, dead bodies go pouring out into space, then the ship explodes* XFD! (I know that it was just a monster, but it still made me laugh)
-Why were they letting Lou boss them around and tell them what they could and couldn't do with "her" robot again? Wouldn't that be considered military property?
-XFD @ Goh getting pissed at Anna fanservice in the next DVD preview! "HEY, THAT'S MY WIFE, DAMMIT!"

After the first DVD, I've got to say that its better than I thought it'd be. I might end up keeping this one.

You can get vol 7 form Rightsuf for 17.99. i ended having to buy vol 6 form the ADV st patrick day sale for $10 since I could get Rightstuf to change one fo the neo ranga dvds for vol6 before they ship it.
The nudity is dvd exclusive, same with Divergence eve where they left off the nipples in the tv but put it back on for the dvd.

Overall is Godannar is a very entertaining show if you were looking for a Hot blood Giant Robo show with plenty of fanservice.
