    What? No topic on this wonderful anime? SHAME.

    Now, I know that Jojoj really likes this series, in fact, it's even in his signature. xD
    But anyways, I just started watching the only five episodes that are subbed, currently. My opinion, it's a fantastic result of what happenes when you mix Eureka Seven, Nadesico, and Hayao Miyazaki altogether. You get an amazing work like this.

    The story is basicaly about a boy named Akiyuki, who has a normal life before a girl bombs a bus at school, and this little jewel that the girl had ate, implanted in his arm. This, then turned Akiyuki into X'amd, who, I'm guessing, is a friend of the rebel team that saves him later on in the series. And hearing from a commander in the series, there was a second one, but died. Now, Akiyuki needs to keep a needle in his arm to prevent these things called "Humanforms" from attacking him and everyone around. Not only that, but these Humanforms are trying to capture X'amd, seeing from episode 3.

    I think the artist behind Eureka Seven was behind all the artwork and animation of this series. I dunno. I mean, it has the feel of the anime, and the art style looks so damn familiar. Especially when you look at the character design's shape, texture, and detail. But besides that, this is a recommended anime, for sure. It's addicting as hell, at that.

    Boom Boom Satellites for the win. Did you know they did part of the soundtrack for Appleseed?

    But anyways, the second episode was awesome.
    I feel bad for Haru though.

    Sweet !

    Wow, just watched the ending to episode four.
    That was odd. And how the guy got shot at the end was oddly funny. No?
