"The skies will be protected by the Space Fleet, not that outdated robot."

...yeah, how'd that work out for ya? >_>

Reminds me of the movie Pacific Rim, "We will build a wall to keep the Kaiju out, no more funding for your robots!"

Today we know too much about building robots. This classic robot anime design has been reduced to parodies and comedy shorts.

But this is anime, so it can be as ridiculous as it wants. No pesky real physics or engineering to get in the way.

Yeah... and those Space Battleship Submarines too! ...so unrealistic.

I still miss those times! When we could dream!
