Uchû no kishi Tekkaman Burêdo (1992)
The Most influential anime i've ever seen...
This beats all the mecha Oav's on the planet, hands down. From Gundam, Guyver and even the childhood favourites Tranformers, this rocks! The actual plot isn't really original, you know epic war, protagonist warrior to rid the Earth from destruction. But if you take away all the cliche attachments, you get a thoroughly enjoyable series of pure anime action. A must see for all manga/anime fans!
I think the second and concluding series was only aired in Japan and America and was titled Tekkman Blade, however i dont think it used the Teknoman continuum as all the characters were designed in a more child-like orientation, quite sad really...
Guyver: Dark Hero (1994)
One only for the Manga-fanatics!
Ok, so the film is korny and lacks any true depth, but as an avid Manga fan what isn't there to love about this film. The Bio suits are almost magical to look at and the fight scenes are quite fantastic. The transition between animation and motion picture is also somewhat impressive depsite the lack of special FX's in the film and the storyline despite being poorly acted, is commendable for its sheer effort in maintaining any serious sense of sci-fi/action between the slow moving plot scenes.
