GaoGaiGar is an incredible series. If you love GAR and manly punching and shouting and fighting, this is the series for you. Wonderful price, too. This is an incredible value. The series takes a little while to build up, but once it gets going, it'll have you marathonning them.

I have been a big fan of Japanese animation for a long time, but this was always one of my favorites. I'm glad I got a chance to get the series before it was gone. I have missed a few in the past thinking "ill wait for it to go down in price" Bad idea. My advice, if you like it, buy it before it gets away.
The voice acting is good in this series, the only thing I wish they did was subtitle the names of locations when they are splashed on the screen, other than that it was great.
And one last thing

FINAL FUSION Complete!!!!!!

What's there to say? It's a great show and a great example of the giant-robot vrs aliens genre.

Excellent soundtrack as well.

The earlier episodes were kinda generic but fortunately I already knew about that having heard it starts out weak.

Actually as of now it seems the series is building toward something. I'd previous heard there's a second villain group, who I assume will appear shortly into the second half. The current villains aren't too interesting unfortunately; one of the Machine Kings appears to be developing a backstory but that's about it.

Actually Gaogaigar has a huge cast and while some characters are likable so far we haven't found out much about them with the exceptions of the most central characters. As the series progresses things get somewhat zanier. Generally speaking the quality of the episodes with little time spent on people hanging around the heroes' tends to be better than those focusing on characters discussing recent events in the base, which on occasion became repetitive.

It hasn't yet become anything special but I will wait until seeing Gaogaigar in its entirety since pretty interesting stuff seems to be coming up in the near future of the show.

Shame on you Anime Works! You decide to get rid of your overstock by re-releasing all 5 volumes in one set at basically 1/5 the cost. For anyone who dosen't already own these I guess its great. Also its a lesson to people like myself.... DONT BUY DVDS THE FIRST TIME AROUND. just wait a couple years for the re-relase and get them dirt cheap. They just better release the rest of the series at the same price point.... Grrr...
