Story Outline: In the last series, Gravion used its ultimate attack and it seems the threat is over. However the Zeravire threat returns, but Earth government anti-Zeravire unit EFA brings out its own Gravion robot team called the Grand Troopers. Is Gravion no longer needed?
Mini Review: A far better sequel than the original, Gravion Zwei is still superficial fluff for most of its length. However it does manage to tie up all of the hanging story threads from the previous series and answer all of the questions left hanging in the previous series. There’s still maids galore and big breasted women who becomes tiresome, however everything is nicely animated this time around (thank god!). The new Earth government robot team is a nice addition with a young woman named Faye as their leader. In fact the first line of dialogue in the series is from her after a demonstration of her team’s power; “Jack off”. Unsure if that’s an order to the audience or what. Certainly made me laugh out loud. Big dumb fun, 6 out of 10.
Remaining Backlog: 19 months (it's much easier this way than listing the number of discs).
