SynopsisIn the future humankind has expanded and colonized other planets. Then an alien species, Victim, attacks the human colonies leaving only one planet, Zion. In an effort to stop Victim from destroying the last planet a training school, GOA, is set up to gather boys from the Zion colonies and train them to become pilots of the Ingrids AKA The Goddesses, five fighting robots that protect Zion. The boys must possess a rare blood type, EO , as well as a special ability, or EX. Zero (Candidate 88) has just arrived in GOA when he falls into the cockpit of the Ingrid Eeva-Leena. Since the synch between pilot and Ingrid are very sensitive everyone believes the Goddess will kill Zero in an attempt to synch. Just before Zero passes out he makes a full synch with the Goddess. Before he can find out more about the incident, his pilot training begins. (Source: ANN) |

I think Candidate for Goddess didn't get the recognition is deserved in the least bit. The 12 episodes were very enjoyable, but I feel like it got cut too short. And because it's quite short, this review will be as well!
Story has some similarities to Evangelion, but not to make it a direct copy or a rip. The characters were fun and enjoyable. The animation was well done-- clean and crisp. Character development could be a bit more, as there was so much room for potential growth.
Overall, Candidate for Goddess is enjoyable, light hearted, and fun. I highly recommend watching it if you can find it :) Seeing that if you want you can just watch it in one sitting if you so wish. :) read more

Goddess remided me very much of NGE due to the facts tha A: there are choosen pilots for robots(or whatever they are -.-') B: The synchronisation with these robots and finally C: the fight against some kind of aliens that want to destroy the earth. it also gives the same feeling of mystyirous that Evangelion does.
