RobiHachi

Don't come into RobiHachi excepting an epic contribution to the mecha anime genre. It's silly and laid back and has the type of humor that breaks the fourth wall often. I would even go so far as to say this show is a parody. The English-dub dialogue has so many one-liners that catch me off guard and have me rolling.

The character designs are lovely and the art style is easy on the eyes. Very wonderful show and works wonderfully as a casual watch.

And became infatuated. It is campy, cheesy, and filled with innuendos but that's what makes it amazing. The voice actors play it off and don't react to the one liners, like corny laugh track pauses you get with generic sitcoms. There's a weird comedic magic to this show that makes you wanting more (please please please don't make this be a one season wonder). I was looking for a short anime to not get invested into, to just zone out to while drifting off to at night, nope, stayed up and binged this in one night and now desperately need more!

The biggest appeal for me was the funny one liners and innuendos between the two main guys, Robby and Hatchi. There's a wonderful mix of story, jokes, lessons, and character development. I fell in love with the show and characters for the fun and lighthearted atmosphere. If you want serious mecha animes then this isn't it, but if you're looking for something that's fun and easy to binge watch, especially more than once, then look no further.

One of my favorite characters was Mr. Yang, he's the default villain of the story, but you'll begin to see he's actually really nice and forgiving. He just wanted an excuse to chase after Robby.

If you don't like soft undertones and hints toward boy love then that's also something to keep in mind for this hidden gem of a show. I've had guy friends watch it and still have a good laugh so I say at the very least give it a shot before you write it off.

Only watched the first episode, which 1/3 way through I kinda wanted to just turn off, then... I laughed, laughed again and then said, WTF is HAPPENING and laughed some more. There are 12 episodes out there, so I shouldn't be writing this now, but hardly anyone else is posting...

I've been looking for a 'lighthearted, fun show to lazily watch before crashing.'

That was Bob's Burgers, but chewed them all up. It's not THAT funny, but seems of a similar vein... (devoid of social/political commentary... just fun, tugging on strings of anime/story telling tropes without really criticizing---ummm, pop culture references wouldn't cross the East/West, which Bob's excelled at, so not expecting here---similar isn't the same)

Although Space Dandy had a charm whereas this anime was trying too hard but completely failed for me after just watching 2 episodes. The characters and story just weren't enough to keep me watching it more....

I really wanna give it a like but then I would be lying to myself. So without further ado, I'm just gonna leave it at 2 episodes. To it's fans, hope you enjoy the rest of it!
