Just found this on my cyber desk this morning. I know that our first impressions or this was less that favorable, but I am now personally starting to come around. Making this so dramatically different from the OG Science Ninja Team is quite a risk, but I do have to say this Gurren Lagann meets Tiger & Bunny meets Person 4 aesthetic really does have my actual interest, versus an anime that was a more straight one to one remake. I’ll be checking it out. So what are your impressions now that we have this to see?
The new series kicks of July 12, 2013.

I was giving it a chance based on the director, and I agree that the more it deviates from the original, it stands a better chance to be judged on its own merits. It’s certainly one of the few shows I’ll follow this season, at least the first few episodes.

I don’t now how to feel about th new asthetics… if I wanted Persona or Tiger&Bunny I will go for the original not gatchaman.

Aside from the jarring CG, it looks pretty rockin’.

I’m willing to give it a try. Wonder who’s gonna sub it. Though I have a feeling this may be included in Section 23’s recent Tatsunoko agreement.

Oh look, it’s EVERY anime opening for the past 5 years!
