Just visit a toy store and you will see that Gundam's popularity has not waned in the least since its debut in 1979. This is THE godfather of all mecha animes, after all. Char's Counterattack is the fourth of the many theatrically released Gundam films, but what sets this one apart is the animation and intense battles, which easily best all previous efforts. It has been 13 years since the events of the original series, but trouble is never far when the new Neo Zeon army invades. It's up to our hero, ace mobile suit pilot Amuro Ray, to thwart this new danger. A Gundam classic ¡V how could you miss it? Playing with five Gundam Evolve (01-03) shorts, 40 min. |
