>actually had a fair chance of defeating Grendizer and only gets killed because Blacki is a little bitch who can't accept the consequences of his own shitty leadership skills

Even after all those years I'm still unironically mad after watching that episode. Fuck Blacki. I cheered when that faggot died.

why are you so racist?

I hope the game is decent so we can have more underrated manga ip like Cobra

It’s no doubt one of the more famous designs from the show, I was actually quite surprised on how he almost was able to best grendizer but blacki ends up killing his for disobeying orders despite this saucer monster and it’s pilot being the closest to achieving victory, a classic case of villainous stupidity

That seems to be a trope in general /m/ stuff, even Toku.

I’m watching B-Fighter Kabuto and that’s happened a few times. But the worst was

>Two factions of villains inside the main villain group, Raija and Dezzle, and the B-Crushers.

>Raija and Denzel create a monster that is designed to dissolve and eat B-Fighter’s armor

>Everything is going as plan and Raija/Dezzle are a second away from winning

>B-Crushers disrupt the whole thing and the B-Fighters get away, and they manage to regroup and win later

I felt legit bad for Raija and Dezzle. They were so close.

Grendizer could use the spazer to attack it from behind but of course they wanted the episode to be more interesting.

also fuck you, Blacki was the best antagonist in the show, and his season was way better than Zuril's.

The Gosaku Ota version is best and this show has a massive plot hole because they adapted the chapter the manga reveal the Vega beasts are modified and brainwashed Fleedians. So technically Duke is mudstone his people in cold blood without giving a single fuck for most of the show.

I recall another classic tokusatau show doing this but I honestly forget on what it was because it’s been awhile, maybe it was kikider with hakider’s introduction fight

I’m not entirely sure, although I do enjoy the twist of grendizer actually being modeled after an ancient mycine empire super robot built to destroy civilization, I honestly would’ve preferred if it was the last obstacle that grendizer has to face to save earth rather than having the whole storyline basically end the exact same manner as devilman, doesn’t fit the overall spirit of the mazinger series

pick one

It's more like The Way of Ryu than Devilman. Ota was an Ishimori Pro alumni, after all.

Both Great Mazinger and Grendizer adapted episodes from his manga version because the producer liked it a lot. He's the reason why Jun was made black for example.

>his season was way better than Zuril's.

Happens a few times in Jetman, notably later on but it does make sense why that happens.
