Anime Superior Defender synopsis

[Cyber E.]

[url=http://www.animeondvd.com]Anime on DVD[/url] has their report from the Gundam panel at AX up, and...well...read for yourself:

[i]SD Gundam will be broadcast on Toonami this year. The series is a departure from Gundam. In addition to copious amounts of action, there is comedy and levity to it. Up to episode 5 has been completed. We then saw episode 5. It stars a kid named Shoot, who has roller blades and leave in Neo-Polis or Neo Tokyo. SD Gundams are about the size of people, and are their companion and server as the army. The Dark Axis powers come from another dimension to attack. It is computer animated using cel shaded animation. It didn?t look all the impressive. Episode five?s title is ?Gundam Force, Team Up.? This series is squarely aimed at kids. Shoot joins up with the SDG, the Superiorior Defender Gundam Forces, which of course is lead by a Haro. It is being recorded in Todd/AO studios in Burbank. The Japanese recording has not begun yet, and the DVD release in the US will not feature the Japanese dub.[/i]

Let me repeat part of it for you: [b]It stars a kid named Shoot, who has roller blades.[/b] OMG KILL ME NOW.

Hm... That looks aimed towards a VERY young demographic... Human-sized Gundams... o.o' Hey, I thought of that! (kidding.. Well, I used to draw gundam manga when I was little.. Where the Gundams were human sized) But I heard that they are translating Gundam Zeta or some title like that and putting it on CN..

*sigh* SD Gundam.. They may as well put it on right after Hamtaro, from what I hear..
