Lost Universe

It's hard to believe this series is nearly twenty years old. The CGI looks on par with anime from the decade that followed it. Now before I start heaping praise upon this series I will point out my bias here. I'm pretty much a sucker for anything with space battles or sword fights, and this series has both. Looking back, this series helped create my bitterness about anime cliches. Because this series has none of them. It's not set in high school nor does it star high schoolers. It doesn't center on unrequited love. Not once did I call for Bright Noah. None of thecharacters are simply eye candy. And I don't have to endure some boy with a girl's name hollaring about justice, friendship or how they're gonna single handily rid humanity of it's enemy. It's just a simple fun space adventure. The key is it never alters it's tone. It's an action comedy (they were all the rage in the 90's) and it never forgets that. Every episode gives you the action and comedy. It's not perfect, though few things are. For starters very little is explained in this series, that's a mild problem for a sci-fi series. I had questions, and I'd like answers. I got a few, but not all. While the CGI looks good, the animation shows it's age. This might turn off viewers who don't have a sense of nostalgia for 90's anime. There's one other flaw I want to mention and that's the use of Noo as the principal villain. If you don't know who Noo is, watch Captain Herlock: The Endless Odyessy. I'm not going to spoil it here but needless to say Hal Jordan is over qualified to solve the problem. Watch it if you're out of new series to watch. You won't be blown away, but you will be entertained.

Space the final frontier. The space genera is about as vast as space itself and no matter how many series you see you can always find a new one that you can find fun. Now to talk about lost universe. First I'd like to say that if you are familiar with the slayers series then you should watch this. But if you didn't enjoy slayers you should still give it a shot. STORY: The story for this series is rather good. Our main characters are involved in a battle that will decide the fate of the universe but the audience doesn't know it until close to theend. It's high points are it's comedy and fair use of foreshadowing and it's low points are a few plot points left a little vague or underused. But over all the good outweighs the bad. ART: The art is one of the lowest points of this series due to it being a bit dated but it's certainly not bad and if you watched the first couple seasons of slayers then you've got a good idea of what to expect. SOUND: I normally don't focus too much on music and sound effects but nothing stood out as bad or anything. Although some of the voice acting in the english dub had a few flaws and I normally don't say that much. Kain's voice is okay but most of the time his battle yells sounds terrible and anytime his childhood self talks in a flashback I wanted to shoot the kid. A few other voices sounded a little off at times but unless your the type to nitpick at this stuff you won't really notice too much. Characters: This show has a well balanced cast. The main characters are both typically quirky and refreshingly interesting at the same time. You can tell what kind of people they are when you first meet them but they still have their secrets that you would never guess until they start to finally reveal them. The only problem is that the villains are mostly either lame or left rather vague even the final boss is a little lacking. But despite some flaws there is nothing terribly bad about any of the cast. OVERALL: This is a series that is sure to entertain anyone who likes space/adventure anime. Even if some of it's flaws bother you it has enough good points to make up for it for the most part.

A simple sf story about a young boy a young girl and a extremely cute computer.(one of my favorites characters ever) Soon they will became friends and companions while defeat the enemy on board a spaceship, more less in a similar way, the plot is repetitive and predictable some times. The anime tries to make the relationship between the characters deeper but it fails. In the end the interaction between the characters is childish. The ships design isn't so bad but nothing special, scenery is really bad but since most of the time you won't notice the background it's OK, the bad dynamics of the vehiclesmade me difficult to really get absorbed by the story. There are also good things I like not feeling stupid for not understand a new philosophy based on the thoughts of one of the characters, and I almost forgot it make me cough. No, not cough! laugh. I enjoyed because I like adventure anime, because... I will never hold the controls of a space ship; not to mention in the presence of a goddess and a cute blondie fighting with me facing the future, writing my own destiny bla bla bla That's all Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to Swordbreaker airlines, Captain Suso and the crew members hope you have a pleasant flight. Please don't forget to put your seats in the upright position and fasten your seat belt; there is no need of live jackets in a spaceship but if you need one below your seat please feel free to ask cabin personal and you'll get your dose of sleeping pills. Thanks again for flying with us. I hope you enjoy as much as I do
