I must admit, I like this new cartoon, MegasXLR
"Chicks dig giant robots"

Finally, a show about a redneck gamer, a slacker, a strict redheaded dominatrix from the future, and a badass giant robot. Acutally quite funny and enjoyable.

2. Not so much "copy" as "parody"
Nah, anime is anime, and American cartoonists seem to suck at anime, for some reason. Which is another way this show is funny: it gives a tip of the hat to anime themes without trying to do it well.

Like ATHF, I don't watch this one for the artwork. Pure comedy with some decent sci-fi plot twists.

3. about athf
What plot? *lol* i swear that show is completely random, and thats why it rules, Sealab, too, and the grandfather of this adult oriented paradigm, Space Ghost coast to coast, i remember when it first aired back in '94. I remember one time i was on the phone with a friend in like '97 at 2 in the morning flipping through the channels watching cn and they were showing the pilots for the brak show and sealab and all the AS originals, at the time it freaked me out it was so funny
