Armored Trooper Votoms - 2010 Mecha Marathon



Almost completed my 2010 Mecha Marathon, after 2008 Macross and 2009 but sliding into 10 a little UC Gundam.

Another awesome anime from Sunrise, very much a mature sci-fi which is very much grounded in the Real Robot genre. Ive enjoyed the series, the one off mini movies and the the top quality OVAs.

Here is the list of what ive watched so far, which i watched in broadcast order unlike UC gundam which i viewed in chronological:

Armored Trooper Votoms : 52 episode TV series
Armored Trooper Votoms - The Last Red Shoulder : OVA/ Mini Movie
Armored Trooper Votoms - Big Battle : OVA/ Mini Movie
Armored Trooper Votoms - Red Shoulder Document - Roots of Treachery : OVA/ Mini Movie
Armored Trooper Votoms - Shining Heresy : 5 episode OVA
Armored Trooper Votoms - Palisen Files : 12 episode OVA plus a recap movie



That is alot of action packed mecha action there and there is still a new bunch if OVAs going to be released soon which are meant to be the very last Votoms to be made and a side story series in the Votoms universe but with different character that looks quite good Armored Hunter Mellowlink.



Im sure Votoms was only mentioned once during the entire marathon i heard, most if the time the mecha are referred to as AT, Armored Trooper or the classic mecha Scope Dog.



Thinking about the next Mecha Marathon, could be Space BattleShip Yamato, quite a few episode in there. First though im going to get myself a comedy and moe fix.
