This is the third series that actually got me into mechas and anime in general. The first and second were Zeorymer and Megazone 23 Part 1, so naturally I'd be partial to this series very much. I actually have nothing against the ending at all, and is overall pleased with all three episodes and the entire series altogether. The Dangaioh is quite a powerful machine in its own right, and I loved the overall story with how each of the four pilots came together. And the intro song was just an adrenalin rush, complete with "CROSS FIGHT!" ^^ I even love the theme when the fighters do combine into Dangaioh. I'm happy that I managed to watch the series in its original three episode format; I've heard horror stories of the current version which was compressed into only two episodes.
You're overstating their powers quite alot. Pai Thunder has super strength, but it's clearly not something along the lines of Superman. Lambda Nol's ability to fire psychic shots from her fingertips are just tiny little shots that aren't any different than a shot from a pistol. Rol Karan's ability requires the man to run, and even then it's not exactly the kind of power that can flat out destroy a giant. Miya Alice is the closest to having power that can damage something like a robot or ship, and even then it's more akin to blowing up a room than anything else.Recon 5 wrote:Anyway, the one thing I can't get is why the main characters need the Dangaioh when they have all those funky powers.

Dangaioh is actually one of the series I wanted to see due to it's theme song which is actually the exact reason why I wanted to see a lot of mecha anime. Good songs = good shows or something like that. Same reason I wanted to see shows like Getta Robo Go, Baxingar, Bryger, Sasuraiger, Galvion and so on.

Wanna know the irony? Other than the OP and ED, RahXephon's music wasn't all that memorable at all, especially given that the series also happens to revolve around the concept of sound and music. ;p Dangaioh's music was just cool for being your typical super robot series; plain old dramatic and fun.Recon 5 wrote:Reideen (or Raideen) and RahXephon?

I like them a lot.
Dangaioh's is no exception.
