I still haven't seen ALL of it, but enough to enjoy Genesis for its more gruesome and life-like outlook on war and tyranny.
Speaking of tyranny, can't help but applaud Jiin for his awesome laugh and completely unscrupulous means of becoming a "god". Even though plot killed him, I think he was the Zoids Franchise's best villain.

i agree, just the fact that he was saying he was a god made him seem more powerful than every other villain, the last episode was fantastic i think

Genesis had some good bits, but Gene's god-frothing and the ending left me feeling unfufilled from both a story and directing perspective for...reasons I won't go into.
I do want the DVDs, though. So much nice AMV footage for the messing-with in there :3.

Zairin's awesome too. He's like Raven but better for some reason. And Felme's appealing in her drunken fist ways.

I just finished the series a few months ago, and quite interestingly, a member posted the original concept for Genesis, which I won't go into detail.
The series was good, not great, but if you compared to Transformer: Armada and Energon, the storyline was pretty solid for most of the part (got weak towards the end). However, the harsh reality is the Zoids anime series wasn't successful, as it didn't generate new interests for Zoids, there were reports of overstocked Genesis Zoids kits that had to be sold at a lost.
So don't expect any second season of Genesis, and it is doubtful it will get licensed for the North American market.
The focus should be on the Rebirth Century Zoids, how will TT try to draw new interests in Zoids?

Well word goes around of it, and assuming they don't edit it and just translate it, I'd expect it to hit Adult Swim. It would help the channel a lot in my opinion. A lot of their shows are lame. And maybe those new designs will spark up some interest. Like that Death Kugel/Dango Muschi thing. That looks like what Guatav should have been, or atleast an Ultimate X version of it lol. And I like the idea of Barigator Kai. The Barigator's one of about 3 crocodilian designs and by far the best looking. A reissue of it is a must have for someone like me. But I can't help but wonder just what that big brick on its back does. Hopefully we'll even see more of Stealth Viper and Hammerhead. (wouldn't mind some koto versions of them. Especially Hammerhead's solid, non-flexy design) A model form of the Stealth Dragon would be simply amazing. See? More interest right there, haha!

So long as it gets dubbed. The internet will take care of the rest -_^
I certainly hope not. With the number of toy tie-ins, Zoids is first and foremost a children's program.

Gah, I've been looking for Genesis dubbed for a long time, and so I tried that site you mentioned, but the pop-ups are killer and it tries to install crap on my computer, until Explorer gave up and closed it automatically. The site says it's better to view on Firefox. Is that true? I'm dying to see Genesis!!

But then again, I stopped checking a while ago...

Just as well since we aren't supposed to discuss such things anyway.
