Ha. Tengo el brazo! ¿Qué es esto? Oh, no ... Rocket Punch![/caption]
A few mornings ago, I was having breakkfast at McDonalds, and sitting a seat away from Maurice, who up and said to me, "Hey Stanley, you like old things. There was this cartoon I liked..."
Maurice is someone I see, and talk to in McDonalds. He's a polite young man, at least ten years younger than I am. He was born and raised in El Salvador, and came to Canada at the end of the 1980s. English is his second language, and he's soft-spoken to boot, so I often strain to catch his entire meaning. But this time, there was no doubt he was describing a Japanese mecha anime.
I quized him about the look of the giant robot, the human characters, and the basic plot. At one point, he described a chubby robot, and I thought he was referring to the granddaddy of all super robots, Tetsujin 28-go (renamed Gigantor for the US) from 1956, but no, the chubby giant robot he was referring to wasn't the star, but a secondary character.
