The Most Badass Robot Panda Anime Ever

This is anime. With Pandas. That themselves drive giant mech Pandas. And attack with extremely awesome death metal soundtracks. On TV. In Japan.



UPDATE: Thanks to an anonymous tipster, I've now found out that Panda-Z is readily available in the States. Links to Amazon now at your right if you want to get down with mecha-pandas.

BTW, I actually saw the toys that were spawned by this series in Japan back in 2004. They're pretty awesome but not half as awesome as the animated series.

Info from the Amazon page:
Shuichi Oshida reportedly created Panda-Z when he learned Adobe Illustrator on a MacIntosh. The 2004 broadcast series sets a new standard for minimalism in anime. The silent five-minute episodes offer so little movement, they can barely be called animated. Hero Pan-Taron pilots his mecha the Panda-Z against the forces of the Warunimal Empire, which consists of a little ox-like character and few other mecha. The robotic animals punch each other a couple of times, and that's it for the episode. Taron also eats and plays cards with his grandfather Dr. Pan-Ji and with Dr. Jangarly.
Here's another clip just for the sheer hell of it.

God help me, I can't stop singing the theme song.


Comments:
Just FYI, this is particular show has been licensed by Bandai Entertainment for release in the US. Available at most fine retails (like Amazon)
