Eureka Seven Vs Zegapain

what prompted me to come back to this blog with some info was that i was listening to some soundtrack of Eureka Seven by Sato Naoki - called the final wish.
i explained to my colleague that it sounded like a man/hero about to partake of the biggest fight/journey etc. of his life.
okok that has nothing to do with the title.

eureka seven. - it's like surfboards on steroids... again .. it's about a young boy(it seems that all the nice animes are about young boys / girls bah humbugs !!)
storyline is interesting enough when u watch it for those who like something like in the future and trying to make it in a small town and growing up overshadowed by the ghost of your father.
storyline gets better. and there's 2 cute coralian girls in the anime.
it gives riding off in the sunset feels like a whole new thing.

Zegapain. this title made me flinched. i didnt watch it for quite sometime.. cos it sounded corny. but due to the fact that i'm a very sci-fi futuristic inclined person, the moment i saw it had something to with like morphing in and out of some worlds had me hooked till the very end.
the robots were nice. more of a survival series than anything. but it has a similar storyline to the matrix.
i would watch again after a few years? : yes. months ? maybe...
the voiceover for the girl was pretty unique. not as high pitched but with a mellow sounding that just tingles.. :D it's the same with bokura ga ita. sometimes u like it.. sometimes u never like it..
the feeling felt when i was watching this anime : it gave me a feeling of it's a lonely anime. not sad.. but .. can't put my finger to it.. when i find out i'll edit this page.

Karas Vs Ergo Proxy

similiar features
1. futuristic
2. dark mood (meaning it is not bright lol :P meaning it doesnt use bright colours in the anime)

1. Coolness factor: 10/10 ( too bad i've only seen 3 eps)
2. Ecchi-ness factor: 0 ?? action la action ..
3. Storyline factor: 8/10 ( clean and easy to follow)
4. Lovey-dovey factor: can't remembre..
great show. i'd watch it again if i had all the eps.

Zone of the Enders Dolores,i VS Vandread I & II (2001)

Action, Mecha, Science-Fiction

ZOE or also known as Zone of the Enders Dolores
there's a robot. that distinctly somewhat reminded him of his wife.
1. old has-been. trying to make ends meet. his kids are on earth.
2. Reconciliation of family members. can't say i remmebre much about this anime. as i am typing it out from memory.
3. Coolness factor: 6/10
4. Ecchi-ness factor: 0 ?? it's some sort of space drama action ?
5. Storyline factor: 7/10
6. Lovey-dovey factor: 0/10 can't see any love between a man and his robot.

verdict: not that i'd recommend it but it's better than most other filler animes out there. but if there's nothing else to watch, this wouldn't be a bore.
full series of 26 episodes

Action Mecha, Ecchi, Science-fiction
Vandread I & II
i grouped them togehter even though vandread 1 is from the year 2000.
a planet of guys who has never seen girls? add in a few 3D robots piloted by girls. and a naive boy who thinks he's gonna save the world.
1. boy meets girl, boy is scared of girl, boy runs from girl, boy keeps running from girls.
2. funny. weird. and almost near impossible. but then again .. it IS anime.
3. Coolness factor: 8/10
4. Ecchi-ness factor: 7/10 ?? well.. it's like being let loose into a world of girls and u're still naive about what is that and what is THAT.
5. Storyline factor: 8/10 i would say it's different. couldn't stop watching this until i finished them.
6. Lovey-dovey factor: 5/10 a girl's love for an alien is undenyingly funny.

verdict: must watch for robot fans who is into comedic scenes of ecchiness once in a while. i still think it's too short. the series.
13 eps for season 1. and 13 for season 2.

S.C.R.Y.E.D VS Project ARMS (2001)

Action, Adventure, Science-Fiction

Scryed.
first anime i've ever watched apart from the time when i was a kid.
1. Loner hero. trying to protect his friend ?
2. talks about a guy who gains power in order to defeat the authority who was oppressing the so called outlaws.
3. Coolness factor: 8/10
4. Ecchi-ness factor: 0 ??
5. Storyline factor: 7/10
6. Lovey-dovey factor: 3/10 if u take into account, who he's fighting for.

verdict: it's the first anime i watched. and i would watch it again. :D
it's just about being a macho man in the world of power ups.
soundtrack's jazzy.


Project ARMS.
1. A boy who has his arm become something different than a normal limb.
2. against a large unknown organisation, he finds a few people friends with the same abilities.
3. Coolness factor: 5/10
4. Ecchiness factor: 0 !! these are all ACTION animes :P
5. Storyline factor: 8/10
6. Lovey-dovey factor: 3/10 he sorta likes the girl but he doesn't know it yet. :P

verdict: due to the fact that they had hidden abilities that had not been uncovered, this kept me watching it.
as well as the fact that the mystery had not been uncovered yet.
talks about friendship, teamwork, character building.
normal soundtrack i think.


Total verdict: both are a must watch. except that ARMS are better in the manga. i havent seen a scryed manga yet.
