Eiji Shigure is looking for his sister Ayaka. He gets a strange note telling him to save her from a castle outside of the city. He sneaks into the castle just as an attack from space starts. While escaping he falls into the cockpit of a spaceship which then takes off. Soon he is joined by other ships as they bond together to form the robot Gravion.

Eiji together with Luna (Right Arm) , Togo (Body), Eina (Left Arm), Mizuki (Right Leg), and Leele (The crown), form a team that uses the mysterious G-Power to defeat the aliens called Zeravire who have the ability to learn from each use of Gravion.

After watching this; I just had to get my hands on Gravion Zwei. This is a great addition to any mecha fan's collection.

Gravion has action, comedy, fan-service, a good selection of charcters, good animation, a good story shrouded in mystery and a kick-ass opening!

Hmm...it's Vandread crossed with Great Dangaioh. It's not as good as Vandread but's it's a hundred times better than Dangaioh. Gravion uses 6 pilots (So you don't think it's Voltron of the 5 lions), but it's storyline is so much like Gekigengar of Martian Successor Nadesico that I had to watch it.

The first episode is slow and stupid, it does get better afterwards (This is very similar to Vandread here) and slowly you learn about the secrets of the Zeravire and why Eiji's sister is missing.

It wasn't too bad overall. A bit too many reused scenes but defintely watchable.
