It was ok, I'll stick with it for a while, and see if it gets any better. I must say a loli with a big boob fetish is relevant to my interests. Though the girl with the ONE giant earring just kinda weirds me out. Zettai was a bit of a blast from my past. It was ok, I’ll stick with it for a while, and see if it gets any better.

It wasn't bad but it wasn't good either and the jokes didn't work for me. Also wasn't that fond of those old fashioned designs, they really could have modified them for 2008. Soul Eater is nice, at least its visuals. It's like "Tim Burton has gone shounen anime" and the storyboard as well as the martial arts choreography is rather gainax-ish. I tried out Zettai Karen.

I bet even you can guess who pilots that one. Hint: It isn't a female, though rumoredly it isn't really either. Also it comes out of another Gundam. >>Zettain Karen Children? Golgo 13? I'll probably try at least one out, for lulz sake. I also might try Minami-ke. Last season, school kept me too busy to really try anything new out, but currently I'm in the final damn leg of it before college tiem. >>Drama

There are actually a lot things I PREFER about the books, with the lone exception that Tomino automatically reveals Char and Sayla's identities). Particularly Macross is a series steeped in plain old good mecha anime. Macross Plus has one of the best mecha dogfights in all history. Personally the one thing I've always liked about Macross mecha designs is that are really the most practical mecha in all mecha. The are the pinacle of reals type mecha: they stick to the fighter forms for the majority of combat, and most of the weaponry is built onto the Variable fighters themselves. Also the space combat has a much more bottomless feel than Gundam's does. The battleship designs feel like they can handle attacks from the bottom side. Everything makes sense. Regardless, the show has won me for the season. I'm really interested where this series is going. Now, all I need to find is a good comedy for the season.

In fact, I thought they were going to "moefy" the characters but they left them intact. Oh Japan.
