Armor Hunter Mellowlink (機甲猟兵メロウリンク Kikou Ryohei Merowlink?) was a twelve episode anime OVA spinoff of Armored Trooper Votoms. It takes place in the same universe(and time, 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 wasn't meant to survive, the main character, Allity Mellowlink(Arity Merowlink), 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 their death.
The series is available for download on Bandai Visual's official website and the Japanese DVD boxset was released on December 6th, 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.
