Armored Trooper VOTOMS (装甲騎兵ボトムズ, Sōkō Kihei Botomuzu) is a Japanese military science fiction mecha anime series produced by Nippon Sunrise, created and directed by Ryosuke Takahashi and featuring mechanical designs by Kunio Okawara. Following directly in the footsteps of Takahashi's previous series, Fang of the Sun Dougram, VOTOMS continued the trend towards hard science in the mecha anime subgenre.
The series was supplemented by numerous original video animation releases, and also inspired a number of spin-off works whose media ranges from serialized light novels to video games. The TV anime was originally licensed by the now-defunct Central Park Media, which released the series on DVD and VHS. Currently, it is licensed by Maiden Japan, a unit of Section23 Films,[3] which has also released all OVAs other than Armor Hunter Mellowlink.

Transcription
Plot
In the Astragius Galaxy, the Gilgamesh and Balarant nations had until recently been locked in a century-old galactic war whose cause was long ago forgotten. Now, the war is ending and an uneasy truce has settled. The main weapon of the conflict is the common Armored Trooper, a mass-produced humanoid combat vehicle piloted by a single soldier. Both the Armored Troopers and their pilots are also known as VOTOMS (Vertical One-man Tank for Offense & ManeuverS). However, since Armored Troopers have extremely thin armor, and use a highly combustible liquid in their artificial muscle, their pilots have a very low chance of survival and are commonly referred to instead as "Bottoms", the lowest of the low ("Votoms" and "Bottoms" are written and pronounced the same way in Japanese).
The series follows a main character named Chirico Cuvie, a special forces Armored Trooper pilot and former member of the Red Shoulder Battalion, an elite force used by the Gilgamesh Confederation in its war against the Balarant Union. Chirico is suddenly transferred to a unit engaged in a suspicious mission, unaware that he is aiding in the theft of secrets from what appears to be his side. Chirico is betrayed and left behind to die, but he survives, is arrested by the Gilgamesh military as a traitor, and is tortured for information on their homeworld. He escapes, triggering a pursuit extending across the entire series, with Chirico hunted by the army and criminals alike as he seeks the truth behind the operation. He is especially driven to discover the truth of one of the objects he was assigned to retrieve in that operation: a mysterious and beautiful woman who would become his sole clue to unraveling the galactic conspiracy.
Development
Ryōsuke Takahashi conceived of VOTOMS after watching the film Junior Bonner, in which the main character travels across towns performing rodeo shows, which gave Takahashi the idea of creating a story in a post-war setting, with mechs fighting each other for sport.[4] Although several authors have noted similarities between Chirico and Steve McQueen,[5][6] who played the main character in Junior Bonner, Takahashi stated that Chirico was not modeled after anyone in particular.[4]

Armor Hunter Mellowlink (機甲猟兵メロウリンク, Kikō Ryōhei Merourinku) is a twelve episode anime science fiction action OVA series spinoff of Armored Trooper Votoms. It premiered on November 21, 1988.[9] It takes place in the same universe (and time, and in some episodes, almost the same places) as Votoms, but the two stories are entirely independent of each other.
Mellowlink is the story of a soldier whose unit is sacrificed on the battlefield for reasons unknown. Although he was not meant to survive, the main character, Ality Mellowlink, manages to survive only to be framed for a crime he did not commit. Mellowlink escapes his captors and begins hunting down his former commanding officers, both to get revenge for his dead platoon members and to find out the nature of the conspiracy that led to his and their deaths.
The series is available for download on Bandai Visual's official website and the Japanese DVD box set was released on December 6, 2006. The series was previously issued twice on laserdisc, once as six individual volumes, and once as a three-disc box set along with the two soundtracks. It was released on Blu-ray as part of the Perfect Soldier Box on February 25, 2021.

For 100 years the Astragius galaxy had been split by war.
I was ordered into an operation whose details were kept from me.
There, my destiny was changed the moment I saw her.
She was apparently the military's greatest secret.
Since deserting the army, the war ended...

Since deserting the army, my wanderings had led me...
to the city of Uoodo.
But, for a man like me who only knows how to fight...
combat in this city was something I could not avoid.
And within the battle, I met her once more.

She's tied deeply to my destiny.
But what sort of destiny is it?
The Deal
All right! We did it!

Counterattack
I assume you've already heard that Chirico's still alive.
If worse comes to worst, we'll be sending you out again.
In that event, don't show any mercy. Kill him.
Show us the extent of a Perfect Soldier's power.

Months have passed since Uoodo was consumed in fire.
I've now wandered into civil war-torn Kummen.
Mercenaries. Front lines.
How appropriate for me.
But now I know that she is here as well.

Lately there have been many rumors spreading.
That perhaps the incident concerning the attack on the Holy Land, Alegium,
wasn't just infighting among amalgamated Gilgamesh and Balarant forces.
Of internal prosecution surrounding the election of the new pope.
Of a rampage that claimed the lives of Martial's leaders.
