OMFG dai-guard!

[permetaform]

WHOAAAAAAAAAAAA. ::FLAILS::

So like, I visited runefallstar and karotsamused this weekend and they pimped Dai-Guard at me, and like WHOA.

I mean, initially I got curious at it because it was described to me as the bastard child of Evangelion (and various other mecha Anime) and Office Space.

Office. Space. With Mecha.

Which is shitloads of awesome with really nice ensemble cast and some lovely subtext,

BUT DUDE, I'm getting into the later eps and HOlY FUCK. It's has office politics and red tape and international bruhaha and head-butting with the government and does interesting play with the whole Weapons of Mass Destruction concept. Also! It has an really interesting thing with the differences between Teamwork and Following Orders which is a really rare distinction to see, in like, y'know, a Mecha anime.

It...WHOA.

Unfortunately, the anime is apparently really fucking rare. But me and runefallstar and karotsamused think there might be a way to properly pimp this... ::schemes:: =D

[edit] zero_sleep points out that there's a working torrent up!! ::cheers!!::

*laughs* Awesome.

I might go try buying it on eBay too. They seem to have the DVDs cheap there...

::Waves pompoms at the dvds:: apparently you can get the whole series for 30 bucks.
