- The show is good. - The game is fun. Why would it bothers you if they can cash in bit of money?

While I was at first hesitant about dealing with Battle Spirits-level CGI from week to week, I am also easily suckered in by transforming robots. So the robots win out. (And it fills my Tuesdays with something easy to follow, so it's cool.)

Episode 1
This is 500% a pure unadulterated kids cartoon. The entire setting and premise is kid-focused. There is new technology in the world which allows children to be trained in driving AI-assisted cars. There's an entire school academy in this city dedicated to that focus! The academy also doubles as a secret defense agency! The main character is a gung-ho kid who loves to show off his driving skillz and loves pro-wrestling! He is selected to pilot the transformable robot-car test machine! There is an evil organization out to cause trouble! There's an ancient prophecy involved in all this secret advanced tech! Loool! That said, this is surprising enjoyable if you approach it from the kids cartoon angle. It's not super amazing or anything, but there's some charm in how honest it is about what it is. The most disturbing thing about this show is how much CG there is, and how bad most of it is. There are many CG backgrounds, all the cars are CG, and this is a show about cars, so there are cars in almost every scene! And it's all mostly pretty bad! Oh and here's the best part: The ending is a totally crazy Precure style motion captured full CG ED sequence where all the 5 main mechs are dancing to the beat of the music. No, I'm not kidding. Dancing mechs. Full CG. Motion captured. Lots of moves too. It's nuts. Lol. |

Gyrozetter 01 - Let's Driving!
In retrospect, I have a fair amount of experience with modern kids' anime. Digimon, Precure, Super Hero Time, all the big franchises. Gyrozetter will test my ability to handle TV-quality CGI, but enough of it is traditional animation that I can let it slide. And most importantly - robots. Super robots, of a sort, if on the small side. The CG robots here, the CG dance sequences in the upcoming Aikatsu!, they're basically the same thing. And this is the only show this season that has a character named Mikeman Seki, voiced by Tomokazu Seki himself, so it has that going for it. Mostly setting up the premise so far, though considering recent advances in technology, the idea of a car even a kid could drive may not be that far off. Still working on the robot thing. |

I haven't seen it myself but from your post, it looks like this one is heavily for kids and leaving nothing for the adults. Oh well, I guess I can go back watching Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal for my healthy dose of merchandise-related anime with decent story .

Sadly, this is probably one of those series that gets tarred with the unforgivable sin of being a "kids show" and doesn't get a subber. With the prominence of streaming there just aren't many true subbers left.

Also the main one kind of reminds me of Getter Robo....maybe it's the color scheme, but that's the first thing I thought when I saw it. |
