Customer Reviews

Gravion Good Gravion Zwei Awful!
I'm gonna try too keep this short because its really not worth a long review. Gravion was a fun anime with great characters and great music and a well thought out storyline that was spread out well. I gave it 4 stars. I waited patiently for Gravion Zwei's complete release hoping it would finish well but it didnt even come close. The writing was horrible and the way they spread out the story between episodes was even worse.The first 5 episodes were filler and they really needed that time for the story because they failed miserably when they tried to put it all together later. Its just a shame Gravion ended this way. I will probably sell the first season now. You might be asking why 2 stars instead of 1? The animation was done well and it was the only thing better from the first season.

So far, not so good
I have only seen disk 1 so far, but I can't exactly say I like what I see. Sure, there's lots of fan-service. Sure it's got some funny points. But the plot! I haven't enjoyed watching a giant mech show since I watched Voltron 20 years ago (ok that's dating me) and I was the target audience when I watched that; 7 year of boys. This show has all the cheesy things that I hate about the genre; combining robots, cheesy phrases, the main character calling out the name of each attack. Now, if you strip out the 5 minutes that they actually get into the Gravion, then you got a pretty good show. They didn't botch the American voice acting either. Only problem; I've never seen Gravion and this is Gravion Zwei (or 2 in German). So there is a lot I think I am missing as far as plot is concerned. Now, all things considered, was it worth the $25 I paid in the store? Yeah, it probably was. But I wouldn't want to force anyone this that has already gone through puberty to sit through.

Sadly This Series Falls Flat In All Avenues
I thought this would be a semi serious/funny anime mecha series like Dai-Guard of Full Metal Panic sadly it was neither. First off the fan service was just to much and to stupid to really care for, second at least for me was you can't really connect with any of the characters I mean watching some of them get hurt or thinking one of them was killed didn't really matter to me like it would on FMP or FMA. What was really disappointing was hearing some of my favorite English voice actors from ADV films doing this series with all of their heart trying to get you into this show but again sadly even they couldn't make me care if all these characters were killed. The series is your basic mecha story you have the world in a sense of semi-peace thinking the danger is over when suddenly a new threat comes in the pilots of the amazing mecha robots and machines are needed again. The one thing I felt was also hilarious was the total fan-service in this it reminded me of the other awful series Godannar(Another box set to pass over) what these female pilots wear was to stupid to take seriously there are also some nude scenes not full but topless of the female characters. All there is left to say is if you truly want a great mecha series try for Gundam Wing/Seed,Full Metal Panic,or Dai-Guard and pass this one from your sights...
