Ah, remakes. They can be hailed as fantastic modern-day adaptations or panned as horrific butcherings of classic masterpieces. Still, we all have a childhood anime we’d like to see remade in 2019. CMSite Inc. over in Japan recently decided to find out just which anime people wanted to see remade, conducting an online survey in October of 2018. 13,327 people of both genders between the ages of 10 and 60 responded to “which Showa (era) anime would you like to be remade?” and the results for the “Robot/Mecha” category are as follows:

1. Space Battleship Yamato (宇宙戦艦ヤマト)
2. Mobile Suit Gundam (機動戦士ガンダム)
3. Mazinger Z (マジンガーZ)
4. Testujin 28-go (鉄人28号)
5. 8 Man (エイトマン)

Needless to say, it’s every anime/manga fan’s dream to see their favourite classic anime reborn in full digital glory, but we’re pretty sure there’ll always be a special place in our hearts for the originals.
