I took in the first episode of Gad-Guard last night. The only things I really knew about the show beforehand was that Gonzo had a hand in it and the initial images I’d seen looked pretty slick. There’s not much to give away really, since the first episode only just gets us started. The main character seems to be a school kid who works on the side as a delivery boy. It’s got giant robots (guess who it looks like will get one). We like giant robots. Especially funky cool looking ones like these. The animation style kind of reminds me of Jet Set Radio Future, which is pretty cool. Oh yeah, and the soundtrack? It kicks ass. All very jazzy. The opening track is quite good IMHO. This is one I’ll be waiting for more of (to balance out my waiting for new episodes of Kaleidostar (which I’ll talk about soon)).
