Good anime, I don't konw if its the insurge of popular "teen" anime but I havn't seen much anime with mature themes sence Gasaraki. I've been watching Elfen Leid but It's extreme graphic nature is to much at times.
Remember I saw the trailer for this on the "Spriggan" dvd, and the only reason why I took interest in this anime was because of the song that was playing. Besides that I thought this was a good anime series. Took sometime for it to really into the story, but by the end it left me happy and glad I picked this one up.
I could also agree that Blue gender has one very good point, it is the development of the protagonist Yuji, he actually overcomes the "Evangelion dilemma" by becoming stronger to figth back the evil, and that I felt the ending was better done than Gasaraki. Now on topic lol Gasaraki opening theme really was something I liked listening to every time I started an episode. Also the ending theme, it is beutiful too.
I love seeing mechs, I also love when they walk and run using legs, not just rolling around on wheels (like in Blue gender) or flying around all day long. I just have something against mechs that deny the purpose of legs, but this one didnt let me down. Well the ending could have been made less strange but Im glad it didnt went like the Evangelion's "Human instrumentality" ending lol. (I still like Evangelion though)
Blue Gender is pure genius. More for the story than the mecha, but i know what you mean about mecha movement.
Gasaraki is actually a very good anime. Extremely slow, but that helps with its addicting factor too.
When I get enough cash, I'm gonna buy it, because some buddies of mine, want a real mature realistic anime and this one doesn't get any closer to that quota...
@FritoyezSchumann Yeah I was utterly confused how in Blue Gender the mechs had legs but used their wheels 90% of the time. I can see the wheels being needed sometimes but it seemed that was their primary locomotion.
Then again, I suppose the legs could act as a very sophisticated suspension system for fighting well the Blue, which were organic, so something like a tank or jeep wouldn't be responsive enough.
No. That is Tomoko Tane you hear on the opening track "Message 9" and the closing, "Love Song". She also did the closing to Trinity Blood, "Broken Wings".
crap i think i may have deleted it lol oh well ill just have to get it agian XP.. soory for the bad posting i clicked on the replay but for some reason it showiing up as lastes comment.. my apologizes
Only had the first dvd and I didn't know what the hell was going on :/. It looked interesting though, I just never ended up watching the rest of the show. Also the intro is awesome.
LOL i was lost too. im not as fast as some other ppl but aft watching it a couple times the names and partiess groups or faction whatever u want to call them stared to make sence. i hope u give it a nother shot and realy trie to understand the story. happy watching to all and to all a good night :P
This was one of the most complex anime I ever watched. Gasaraki gave me a reason to show other ignorant folks that not all animations are meant for the mind of children. Some "smart" people would not be able to grasp the concepts in this artistic portrayal of technological advancement.
One thing I love about Gasaraki(and the main reason I was attracted to the series) is the way that bi-pedal weapons are represented. The machines(both from Gowa and Symbol) look like that they could be built with today's technology. The only problem with doing that is the production and maintenance cost.
I usually like the opening to shows better than the closing. This is a rare case where the reverse is true, but the opening for Gasaraki is really awesome too.
