Getter 3

[Video. Who the heck is this guy?]

Oh man guys this is so cool! I got to get on a super robot! I was like "SWOOSH SWOOSH GABLAMMO!" and then he was like "OH SHIT!" "CACRUNCH!" and it was awesome!

[All of that was accompanied with extravagant arm gestures.]

How do I sign up to do this full time?

[Much later, after being thoroughly tested by Dr. Saotome's staff, the following results are posted:]

Musashi Tomoe's low reflexes and coordination make him an ill-fit for piloting Getter Robo. He will be held here for observation until we are sure he is not in danger from Reptiloids, and then released back to civilian life.

Yancy blinks, then rubs the bridge of his nose.

"Uh, that's the Saotome Labs, I think."

[threetimesasfat]

Saotome Labs, then.

Hey, Saotome was the guy who was in Getter Bear when it crashed! He owns the whole lab!?

"He's the Director there, and from what I understand, the resident mad scientist." Yancy replies, looking Musashi up and down.

"Do you have any High-G training? I've heard that the Getter Jets have a wicked acceleration curve..."

[threetimesasfat]

Heh, yeah they were pretty fast. Didn't feel like anything I couldn't handle, though.

"Awesome!" Yancy says, relieved that this newcomer's up to the challenge, and extends a hand.

"Welcome to the U-G. Yancy Beckett at your service. And you are-?"

[threetimesasfat]

Musashi Tomoe.

[genericbiggerbrother]

Yancy blinks. "Wasn't there a 17th century swordsman called Musashi? Wrote a Book of the Five Rings...?"

[threetimesasfat]

...No relation.

[genericbiggerbrother]

"So, anyway!" Yancy says hastily. "Were there any questions you wanted to ask? About the U.G. or it's personal in general?"
