This Meetup will be held online on the AnimeChicago Discord Server. Follow the instructions here for access: https://animechicago.com/discord/ Armor Hunter Mellowlink is an independent spinoff of the gritty real robot show Votoms. Join us for part II of our look at this. Set in a post apocalyptic world, its a story of a soldier whose unit is sacrificed on the battlefield for reasons unknown. Although he was not meant to survive, the main character, Ality Mellowlink, manages to survive only to be framed for a crime he did not commit. Mellowlink escapes his captors and begins hunting down his former commanding officers, both to get revenge for his dead platoon members and to find out the nature of the conspiracy that led to their death. Featuring some of the earliest director credits (ep 8) of Shinichiro Watanabe of Cowboy Bebop fame, join us as we sample the first part of this overlooked mecha OVA series from the 1980s.
