This is why I love mecha!

Just watch this.

This is awesome, not even counting the fact they took yet another stupid song from yet another dumb Disney musical and made it fit perfectly to the beginning parts of this show.

See, this is why mechs rule. Heroic bravery, insane stunts, and just generally UNSTOPPABLE FIGHTING SPIRIT.

Your sword and sorcery RPG campaigns will NEVER reach this level of greatness.

A good mecha campaign could, with the right players.

And as I mentioned, this video only covers the early parts of the show. It gets MORE AWESOME AND MANLY.

Did Drizzt or Raistlin ever get into a fight where they were using ENTIRE GALAXIES as throwing stars?

I didn't think so.

And one day I will run a mecha RPG campaign for the right group of people and it will have this level of unadulterated awesomeness in it.

One day.
