FR: Dragonoid

This anime is not a run-off-the-mill mecha anime, okay?

Ah... Mechas....

Machine Robots or otherwise preferably called Mechas is a popular genre. A typical mecha anime usually depicts young teenager being forced to save the world or universe, using large machine robots created specifically for combat by the government or better yet the father of the protagonist. Depending on your author, it can be a right mess or be a brilliant series. The picture you saw is the second one although I love to mock it for its overrated status (just as I love to mock Pixar for that as well).

I'm giving an introduction about Mechas...Why?

Because I'm doing a fanfic recommendation!

Yes, this recommendation would come sporadically. So, you might not know when the next one would be or what it would be. Anyways, the story here is about Dragonoid.

In this story, the dragons or robots maintained by aliens are taking over Earth. "It's been three hundred years, but we haven't forgotten the day the Dragonoids came. Now humanity has been reduced to a few pockets of civilisation, struggling to survive. But for the people of The Dome, the war will continue."

Yes, that's right. A mecha remake of the Dreamworks film How to Train Your Dragon. I absolutely love the soundtrack and highly recommend it to any music lover.

I just love this. Reviews under my username are my cousin's, not my own although some parts are to some extent.

The hard work the author puts on for the mechas just show his dedication. It's complex, more so than HTTYD. Everything was set in place first before writing. He's still writing...I think. It's not predictable and despite the fact you know the film and how mecha anime works, then yeah, it's different in its own way, a good way. Who knows what he got up his sleeve...
