younger audiences
i mean, it's all about drills, giant robots and exaggerated battle scenes
but the humor makes me think otherwise
it's a nice break from all the wussy heroes i get from school-romance-comedies
and like what the other guy said, uh... Nia is cute...
...but why did Kamina have to die?
i mean, he was a cool, hot-headed testosterone maniac with a good sense of humor... he was like the main star of the show...
...i have a feeling that Simon would probably grow up to be just like his aniki :)
Kamina died so Simon could take back the spotlight and be awesome. Also, he died so Nia could get into the show. Think about it. If he lived, Simon would still be in the backseat and they would never have met Nia, so Simon would still mourn not getting Yoko. Still, it is sad when Kamina kicked the bucket, but the payoff for his death makes it acceptable.
