@@sandlax9509 I know, right!? Tetsuya probably got a little rattled around in Great, but... well, we saw what was left of the Kikaiju when he went to see how Koji was doing.
I like that, after all the ups and downs they´ve had, Dr.Hell at the last moment expresses a bit of affection and respect for "his" Ashura, who gave everything to serve him. The only sad part is that Ashura was no longer alive to hear it. I am sure they would have smiled.
Dr. Hell: join me literally after I failed to Conquer the world and make you my equal partner in my failed enterprise. Koji: no Dr Hell: fuck this shit I'm out! *his getaway literally blows up in his face and is about to die. Dr Hell: I have only just begun to fuck about and make your life a living hell. I'm the greatest villain. Smoldering ashes of his corpse and his control stick is smashed to bits by the inferno. Dr Hell: Maybe I am defeared now... The guy is about as intimidating as the Black Knight in Monty Python
@Zetaforce-uv8el not really the first mecha show but the first mecha show that has the protagonist ride the mech . You are correct on everything else beside that.
