The eternal question with anime is "Where do I start with Gundam?" And there's a lot of good starting points, but in our opinion, 0080 is the best one. A short series that'll give you a good taste of what UC Gundam is like

And our next show is... Shin Mazinger! A personal favorite for both of us! If you ever need a good starting point for the entire Mazinger series, this is a good one, and it's a wonderful tribute to Go Nagai's works!

And now for our first manga! Mazinger Zero is a retelling of the original Mazinger saga, except with the insanity dialed up to 100, but it's still got enough hot-blooded action to make it worth a read!
