Errm. a submarine of, I would imagine, 120 -130metres in length 15 metres in beam, and 7 metres in draft usually on average, "takes on human form"? and I presume that pretty secondary school girl is that human form? :lol: :lol: :lol:
I lol but the concept does remind me of Tenchi Muyo's Ryo-ohki, remember the cute little "cabbit" that could morph into an intergalactic space ship? But Ryo-ohki remained a "furry". This idea of the secondary school girl morph looks a tad too tanted toward the lolicom camp for my tastes.

"Allow me to introduce my girlfriend, Sen Toku. I call her Iyonhyakuichi". :wink:

You're basing an opinion of the series on one image and a overly summarised explanation of what these things are? Are you trolling?
 
Sounds a little generic but there must be some kinda hook if they are animating, will keep an eyeball out for any further news
 
Oh, I was browsing YouTube last night and a trailer for this came up in my recommendations (among allthe QI episodes). Looked interesting.
 
Sounds like quite a classic setup in the style of more old-fashioned super robot shows, but the trailer is fairly attractive. Intrigued.

I think it's usually safe to assume this with Mohawk until proven otherwise.

Yes that's what I was thinking, I guess we haven't seen much like it recently but the overall theme of one super ship to save the day is quite old. The trailer has me interested, we shall see how it works out
