### Plot and characters
The basic premise of the plot in Dancougar is not different from any "regular" mecha show from earlier times: the extraterrestial Muge Zorbados Empire, led by Emperor Muge, has set its sights on Earth as a new target for its interstellar campaign of conquest. Muge's soldiers, thanks to their superior technology, quickly obliterate the regular troops from Earth, but resistance movements throughout the world push back against a total submission.

"Well, what about the mecha?" you might ask. Well... that's one of the features that makes this series unique, in my view. Despite being shown in the opening since episode 1, the robot that gives the name to the series does **not** appear until the sixteenth episode. And what would be the reason?
The reason is that the series does quite a slow build up of the story and the characters, which then are ready to be given their toy of mass destruction. This is markedly different from other classic shows: although some don't feature the main mecha in the first episodes (like *Golion*, *Daltanious*, and *Zambot 3* to name a few)
