Would anyone be interested in purchasing a GR themed acrylic keychain with this design? If I make them, I'll probably sell them for about 12$ USD. I want them to have a glitter effect, which costs more to produce.
The big watermark won't be on the final keychain by the way, I just don't want anyone to steal this design. You can find the poll here.

Today’s the last day of my coverage of the Sally The Witch (魔法使いサリー) manga by Mitsuteru Yokoyama (横山光輝), which debuted in 1966 in Ribon (りぼん) magazine.
I haven’t made it all the way through the book yet, but we got a great chunk of material and I will certainly come back to it.

Giant Robo (special effects)
Mitsuteru Yokoyama and Osamu Tezuka are often compared as Japan's representative science fiction cartoonists, but Yokoyama Mitsuteru's talent may surpass Tezuka Osamu by far. They are competing to release their works at the same time, but Yokoyama is often the winner. "Astro Boy" (Tezuka) and "Tetsujin 28" (Yokoyama), "Triton of the Sea" (Tezuka) and "Babil II" (Yokoyama). Tezuka likes to talk about robots with human minds, but Yokoyama hardly ever talks about them. "Magma Ambassador" (Tezuka) and "Giant Robo" (Yokoyama)are the same, but "a robot that should not have a heart, Giant Robo" ignores the commander's order and sacrifices himself. The action brought tears to the young men and women of the viewers at the time. The heartfelt actions of those who do not have a heart touch people's hearts.
ジャイアントロボ
日本の代表的なSF漫画家として、横山光輝と手塚治虫はよく比較されるが、横山光輝の才能は、手塚治虫を遥かに凌駕するのではないか。同時期に競うように作品を発表しているが、横山に凱歌があがることが多い。「鉄腕アトム」(手塚)と「鉄人28号」(横山)、「海のトリトン」(手塚)と「バビル2世」(横山)など手塚は「人間の心を持つロボットを好んで取り上げるが、横山はほとんど取り上げない。「マグマ大使」(手塚)と「ジャイアントロボ」(横山)も同様だが、「心を持たないはずのロボット、ジャイアントロボ」が、命令者の命令を無視して、自己犠牲の行動に出たことは、当時の視聴者の若い男女の涙を誘った。なまじ心を持たない者の心ある行動が、人の心を打つのである。

Funniest Giant Robo detail is how this character apparently is the biggest hater of all time:
Koumei? Hates him. Genya? Hates him. Koenshaku? Hates him so much he would attempt to kill him on sight if unsupervised according to supplementary info. Red the Mask? Hates according to supplementary info. Two members of the Celestial Nine and some other rando? Also hates as well.
And on the other hand, he has a abundance of affection for animals and plant life.
