Cowboy Bebop: The Movie |
Very good (sub), Excellent (dub) |
Honestly, I think Cowboy Bebop is best watched in English. Maybe it's because of the Western (global Western, not U.S. Western) style of the whole thing. Also, the sub script for the movie is pretty bland compared to the dub. |

WARNING! May cause your brain to explode! More seriously, it would have been better without the two dog episodes.

And you should definitely watch some of the first season of Fist Of The North Star if you want to have any idea of what's going on at the end. |

I'll admit, I don't think Full Metal Panic! is the best anime that I've ever seen. It is, however, by far, my favorite. It was the first series that I started buying without having seen any of it at all, and I fell in love with it right away. Great mix of action, comedy, and romance. |

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu (TV) |
Excellent (dub & sub) |
If the first season hadn't completely confirmed my love of FMP, this one definitely did. No arm slaves in this one. The story deviates from the main plot and instead tells some side stories that give us some idea of normal life at Jindai High. Don't expect normal life at Jindai to be normal though. And don't think that because there aren't any arm slaves that there isn't plenty of action. Kaname's expressions in the last episode are priceless. Great follow up to the first series. |

Overall, this is a decent series. The major problem that it has, however, is that it can't quite decide which direction it wants to go. Several potential storylines were introduced, but it never completely followed through on any of them. Perhaps if it had been longer, then the series could have properly explored these other possibilities further. |

Masterpiece |
This is the second of only TWO titles out of the 200+ that I've seen in part or in whole that I've given a Masterpiece rating. Dare I even say that this one is even better than the other Masterpiece. For some reason, I could never watch less than five episodes at a time. This is NOT your average boring sci-fi political action drama (coughGundamWingcough). I can't recommend LOGH enough. If you can get past the first episodes where you're being bombarded with new characters and thrown right into the middle of a huge war, then you will definitely get drawn into the world of this show. You might even lose some sense of reality in the process. If you find that you can't watch this show for less than an hour at a time once it gets going, don't say I didn't warn you. |

After watching this, I must say that its only ties to the original Super Dimension Fortress Macross are the mech/uniform designs, Roy Focker, and the name of the OVA. Although it purports to be a sequel to SDF Macross, it turns the entire idea of "Protoculture" into something more akin to Native American mythology in an attempt to make the story seem more grandiose. They also suggested that someone had come up with a theory on "Protoculture" before the Zentradi even came around. It's obvious that in the main series, no one on Earth had even heard of the idea of "Protoculture," let alone the specific term. Setting these issues aside, the OVA looks very nice, although I still don't really like the combination of 2D and 3D animation. The two styles always seem to clash with each other. The story, however flawed, is also told well, which is more important than whether it follows the tradtition of the original or not. |

My initial impression after seeing the first episode was, "Wow, this show is not good!" But even while thinking that, I couldn't wipe the smile off of my face. It's a ridiculous high school fighting anime. Not even 10 minutes in, the main character is attacked by a band of faceless fighters from the rival school's wrestling club. Character development takes a backseat to the thin plot and fight scenes. And yet, there's a certain charm that largely comes through the always upbeat female lead and her interactions with her new friend, who recently transferred from the rival school. With only two episodes, there isn't a whole lot of time for the charm to wear off, but there also isn't enough time for the full plot to develop or conclude. I'm guessing this was an OVA made primarily for fans of the manga, as the manga has 18 volumes. Overall, it's a decent watch if you're willing to get sucked in laugh at the ridiculousness. |

Some may consider space to be the final frontier, but, seriously, there's a long way to go between where we are now and where sci-fi writers generally think we could be in the distant future.

The main characters of this show are in the Debris section of a private company. In other words, they are trash collectors in space. Garbage men. Space travel is pretty glamorous, eh? |

Standard personality deficient but nice guy male lead and tsundere girl like each other but won't admit it. Moe girl likes Mr. Bland and does the whole confession thing. The two start dating even though he doesn't actually like her that much. Angst ensues. The series would have been better off if it had been cut to four episodes because the angst in the middle is pretty pointless. It's not a bad series, but I don't think it's nearly as good as some people say it is. |

(The) Slayers Try (TV) |
Good |
If you're planning on watching all three Slayers series, I don't recommend watching them all back to back. Give yourself a few weeks or months in between each one. By the time you get to this, the third series, it might feel like the story has been dragging on and on forever. And it doesn't help that this one isn't quite up to par with the other two. |

(The) Super Dimension Fortress Macross (TV) |
Excellent |
Classic mecha series. And since Macross seems to be the only part of Robotech that anyone remembers anyway, why not watch the original instead of the version that was butchered for Robotech? |
(The) Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love? (movie) |
Very good |
Alternate and condensed re-telling of the original Super Dimension Macross series. So much stuff was changed that I really didn't want to like it. I tried pretty hard not to like it. All of my efforts failed though. If you haven't seen the series, though, you're going to be pretty confused as they don't explain much about what's going on to begin with. It should be enjoyable for fans of the series, though. |

Voices of a Distant Star (OAV) |
So-so |
It's a nice little story. It's very good for being an independent project. The creator only worked with a few other people and made it without the help of a large studio. However, I can't bring myself to understand the hype around it. It seems heavily inspired by Top wo Nerae (Gunbuster), but it's really only about the two characters who are separated by time and space. If you want to see a guy and a girl say "I wish you were here" for 20 minutes or so, then give it a try. Otherwise, you might want to spend your time differently. |

I've seen enough Japanese melodrama that only a few episodes in, I knew how it was going to end. Despite my cynicism regarding a particular character's condition, though, the show still managed to make me feel something (only a little, I promise!) when the foretold moment arrived. |
