An experimental mech unit is lost while in transit. It winds up in mechanic Kouji Sugimoto's apartment. Intrigued by it he ends up getting trapped in its cockpit. He has trouble controlling it in the tight packed environment of his neighborhood and draws the unwanted attention of the military. Stuck in the mech, he still has to try and make it to his date. Along the way a rouge tank pilot tries to destroy the suit with him in it.
This OVA is dated as you would expect from something from the 80s. It's real intent is eye candy for mecha otaku. If you enjoy mecha anime this isn't a bad one to add to your collection. Otherwise you don't need to bother with it.
This anime has been available in North America for a long time. But the DVD appears to be a bit of a collector item and may not be worth the effort. The VHS is cheap as dirt and so are tape players if you don't have one.
