Sinópsis
In the very near future, a race of huge, insect like aliens is discovered traveling the galaxy. These aliens seem dedicated to the eradication of the human species as it takes its first steps away from the solar system, and they are getting closer and closer to Earth. Humanity has responded by developing spacegoing battleships and giant fighting robots. These robots are piloted by the best and brightest of Earth`s youth, picked from training schools around the world.
The story begins in the year 2023, not long after the first battles with the aliens, and centers on young Noriko Takaya. Although Noriko`s father was a famous Captain in the space fleet who was killed during one of the first battles of the war, her own talents as a pilot are questionable. Nonetheless, she has entered a training school. Through the series Noriko, joined by the beautiful and talented Kazumi Amano, will fight to overcome the trauma of war, the doubts of her peers, and her own lack of confidence.

Top wo Nerae! Gunbuster fue una de las primeras series de Gainax, es la típica serie de mechas en el espacio, pero es muy curioso ver como empezó a nacer el estilo de Gainax con todo ese RESOLVE y escenas epicas.
Objetivamente como serie no pienso que sea demasiado buena, la historia es bastante absurda y tiene más de un plot hole, pero sirve (Y debe verse) como buildup para Top wo Nerae! Diebuster, la secuela que salió en 2004.
Voy a hacer threads de ambas dada la cantidad de fans de Tengen Toppa en el foro y en general, creo que les gustará mucho ver como empezó ese estilo tan crazy de Gainax que aplican a muchas de sus series y que Trigger falló en recrear con Kill la Kill.
