Micro Teukgongdae Diatron 5 is certainly an anime. I clapped I cheered and I cried while watching it. What a prime example of pure unfiltered cinema. Truly a masterpiece yet so underappreciated by the cringe masses and their awful escuses for anime Yet to be completely honest I feel as though the film has very little to say other than big robot kill spaceship full of villains and go inside woman to kill other spaceship full of villains. The animation is a confusing blend of surreal messy designs with bright colours and vibrant landscapes in places. The character designs are decent enough with vibrating nose man and red robot being particular standouts for me. Yet other human characters end up particularly homogenised and samey making if often difficult for me to remember who they even are. This doesnt help when the titular Diatron 5 mech is a stolen design from a Diaclone toy commercial. Where this film does excel is its nuanced portrayal of the red robot character who I since have forgotten the name of his character was fun whimsical and added much needed light to the dark and oppressive tone that Micro Teukgongdae Diatron 5 flaunts over its audience yet just as all bright things come to an end red robot fella is enslaved and forced into indentured labour for the malicious General Mary a character who exists simply to fulfill the director and audiences perverse and disgusting barely disguised fetishes. Another consistent failure the film makes is its underwhelming soundtrack. Save for the riveting and proud yet seemingly untitled Diatron 5 song at the films gripping climax. The lyrics consist of Diatron 5 sung repeatedly and provide an emboldening yet perhaps monotonous backing to a scene where the villains ship and army are eviscerated by the noble Diatron 5 mecha. There is little to say about the characters writing plot or comedy other than that its a funny watch if you have 2 braincells and are on heavy sedatives. Score breakdown Plot: 0/10 Characters: 0/10 Animation: 0/10 Voiceacting: 0/10 Comedy: 0/10 The red robot guy 7/10 General Marys Feet 10/10 Concluding thoughts I truly hope that everyone watches this beautiful movie and cries at the beauty of General Mary and the strength of blue spock man and the cool tentacle cthuluass man. I also liked Chi Karen and the the doctor with the vibrating nose. I really didnt like when the fake doctor kevin was killed by chi when he exploded after falling through the window . Overall I feel as though this anime deserves a score of 15/100 as I would have prefered more red robot fella.
