Generous use of garlic, women with curves, Ennio Morricone scores—there are many good reasons to give thanks for the existence of Italy, and I just discovered another. Just last week I
professed my undying loyalty to all things Goldorak (aka
UFO Robot Grendizer), but it seems a few people in Italy have done me one better.
The UFO is a fan-created prequel to
Goldrake (the Italian
Grendizer dub), almost entirely created in CGI and sporting some nice updates to the characters' and mecha's looks. This is a spare-time project, so it's not terribly surprising that the group are about a year past their original deadline. But from what they've shown on the site so far, this is one fan project that will definitely be worth the wait.
