Taiwanese Politician Campaigns on Mazinger Z Float
A candidate for the Taiwanese legislature is campaigning from a custom-built float shaped as a giant Mazinger Z robot…His truck-converted Mazinger Z float carries Taiwanese flags in its “fists” and also plays theme songs from the Mazinger Z anime series. Just as in the anime, Liu’s float is “piloted” from the robot’s head, which doubles as the cockpit…
Ray’s take: Nah, that’s too old. Be a tiny more updated and play Kido Senshi Gundamu! KIDO SENSHI~GUNDAMU~GUNDAMU! Rocket punch? That doesn’t stack against beam sabers. Chest beam? Try beam rifle. Oh, and a Gundam is piloted by a New Type, beat that!
I’d vote for Amuro Ray…Actually, I’d rather vote for Murrue Ramius (Mitsuishi Kotono) from Gundam Seed for president. About time we get a good looking woman running the real ship! The Nation of Otaku (at least the Diet 3) approves!
About the Author
I'm a hardcore Anime Fan and I'm proud of it. I know so many things and I've acquired so much knowledge you wouldn't believe. But my love is anime. I've been drifting in this world for so long that I don't even know what an anchor means. I've seen so many shows that I've lost count. The only thing I'm sure of myself is that I care for the lowly and disenfranchised. I hate the rich and powerful and I love what I do, or what I can do. I like anime and I don't mind watching different types of shows. I have experience in different types of Japanese animation. I would be called an "expert" in a bizzaro world. One day, I'd like to start a revolution. I love the US, pizza, beer, sashimi, Chinese food, and steak. But I love freshly baked bread more than a well-aged steak. In reality, if I were born Japanese I'd be a real, hardcore Otaku. I love to love and I can hate strongly. I'm passionate in nature and I don't mind shedding tears.

I could see Ramius running a country, but Captain Bright’s Brightslap would be ideal for keeping cabinet ministers in line. So hard to choose . . .
Since my country’s now supposed to have the Gurren Brigade’s emblem on its flag, perhaps Kamina would be a good candidate.
Presidents battling it out in giant robots?
RIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAARRRRRRRDDDDDD!
(Sorry, but it had to be done…)
NO!!!! Why is it only available in Japan???
Great trailers…I just don’t get why this WASN’T made by some US developer in States. This makes me proud to be American!
