Sayaka Yumi from Mazinger Z showed up in UFO Robo Grendizer.
Sayaka was supposed to show up in the series and having a role active, but she was replaced by Maria Grace Fleed cause Executive Meddling. However, the prototypical Tsundere lead would get NOTHING from that. Shortly after Maria's first appearance, she kidnapped the girl and spent the whole remainder series impersonating her.
- If Sayaka has to fight against Maria (basically a tsundere vs tsundere fight) for the love of Kouji (as we saw many times in some Super Robot Wars games, and also in some stories and parodies), you can bet safely your ten bucks that Sayaka will kick the little bitch redhead ass for good...
- In Mazinger Z: Infinity Sayaka is openly dating Kouji (and he actually proposes at the end) and Maria is nowhere to be seen-meaning that if Maria had returned, Sayaka did just that. And probably kept Grendeizer away when it could have been used to take back Infinity before Dr. Hell could fully charge it...
Kouji Kabuto will Adapted Out of the upcoming Feast of the Wolves video game.
- Which would make sense given how he's a Mazinger character and, therefore, under a separate license.
- Then again, there's always the possibility of him joining in a DLC pack, along with the Mazinger itself.
- Jossed. He's actually in the game!
