Revenge of the Robots
IGN has a new article up that talks about how despite there not being loads of mecha anime like there used to be, there are still newer series out there where you can get your giant robot fix. In particular the article discusses two series that will be coming to America very shortly- Code Geass & Gurren Lagann. So if you've been wondering what all the hype & fuss is about surrounding those two series, check out the mini summaries IGN offers. But don't worry, no real spoilers are given aside from what the general plot of the series are.
Aside from those two they also take a look at other series such as Macross Frontier, Armored Trooper Votom, & Gundam 00. You can read all about these series & find out how robots aren't dead in anime yet by checking out the article here:
