BTW:  There was an anime from the 80's that I dearly loved, but I cant
remember the title.  I remember there was this robot in a mountain and that
this guy had to fly his plane onto its head for it to work.  There was also 

a

female robot that was run by the heroine and the comic relief fat guy even
built one out of refigerators and such.  Anyone know what I'm talking about?

A) It's NOT 80's, but 70's
B) Go Nagai's "Mazinger Z", 
C) Mazinger Z pilot was Koji Kabuto
C) The female mecha was Aphrodita-A, driven by Sayaka grr... forgot 
the surname

By today's standards the series is quite naive, but in its time, 
it RULED!

I still think Mazinger could kick the crap out of the three EVAs 
combined, but let's take that to the discussions list... or 
privately.

Well, there's at least one on-topic appearance: The Great Anime Crossover 
>From Hell, where the Aphrodite A shows up, and her pilot is Roy F**ker's 
girlfriend in the afterlife...
