Description:
As the story unfolds, director Ryusuke Takahashi and writer Toru Nazaki begin to fill in some of the blanks from the first four episodes. The bipedal robot-suits of the Gowa Corporation ("Tactical Armor" or "T.A.'s") fight the similar weapons of the Belgistani dictator, Colonel Stilbanov.

As the story unfolds, director Ryusuke Takahashi and writer Toru Nazaki begin to fill in some of the blanks from the first four episodes. The bipedal robot-suits of the Gowa Corporation ("Tactical Armor" or "T.A.'s") fight the similar weapons of the Belgistani dictator, Colonel Stilbanov. During the skirmish, the Gowa team obtains samples of the rival mechanisms' synthetic muscle, which could reveal valuable secret information. Stilbanov's mecha were supplied by the transnational conglomerate Symbol. Having used Belgistan as a testing ground for their weapons experiments, the Symbol leaders assassinate the dictator and rig a coup d'état, ending the war. Their attention shifts to recapturing the muscle samples--by any means necessary. T.A. pilot Yushiro Gowa and Miharu, the female "invitator" held by Symbol, remain inexplicably drawn to each other. During a brief meeting at a church, she once again warns him not to let "the Terror return." Symbol's attempts to kidnap Yushiro prevent her from explaining what the Terror may be. Like the Gundam pilots, Yushiro is so stoic and taciturn he's not very compelling as a character. Gasaraki would be more exciting (and easier to follow) if the viewer knew more about what he's thinking and feeling. Contains these episodes: 5. "The Touching," 6. "The Puppet," 7. "Return." Unrated; suitable for ages 12 and up for violence, largely restricted to machine versus machine, and occasional profanity. --Charles Solomon
Giant robots meet in fierce combat for the first time as betrayals and bloodshed tear the allied coalition apart. Friend and foe become meaningless words as brother sacrifices brother in a desperate battle for control of the secrets behind the T.A. And even as the T.A. team attempts to rescue Yushiro from the forces of an unknown enemy, his mysterious opponent reveals herself to him.
