    Armored Trooper VOTOMS


    Chirico Cuvie pilots an Armored Trooper, or AT, vehicle for the Melkian army. Then he is assigned to a special mission to a mysterious asteroid, where he makes a discovery that changes his life forever.

    Moody and incredibly violent, I find this series to be quite captivating, despite the late-1970s styling and sometimes clumsy animation. Chirico makes a good tormented anti-hero, and I’m eager to see events unfold. (I’ve seen three of the four “stages.”) I would recommend it to mecha-heads and war movie fans.







    On the Some/None/Lots scale:
    Sex/Innuendo: A little
    Skin: Some
    Violence: Lots
    Profanity: Some
