I got some good news today. Probably good news to [i[ me [/i], but whatever.
Geneon is going to release the 2004 Gigantor/Tetsujin 28 anime this September.
The new 26-episode series is being directed by my favourite, Yasuhiro Imagawa. He is the man behind Giant Robo. And to add to that, I've even spotted a few GR characters in the new series.

Kenji Murasame (stealing groceries?) in Tetsujin 28

And also, Shotaro from Tetsujin 28 dresses a lot like Daisaku from GR.
Shotaro.
Daisaku, tied to Robo.
This is probably something for me to get excited about and you guys to not care. : P
