It could be worse... it's not a horrible anime in any way really, but it's definitely ranked below any that I've watched so far. I gave it a three due to its sheer blandness. It might be OK, say a 5, if one were stoned, but that's about it.
Oh, joy: ⚠ This review needs more information!
Fine, taking the suggestions given:
Is the story unique? Only insofar as any Mary Sue can be. Bounty hunter on the hunt, and has some superpowers. Not much more to her than that, other than that apparently she could be the next Jem, just waiting for her
...
Holograms, as it were.
If it was predictable, did you enjoy it anyway because you like this genre/set-up? N/A: more or less semi-random events, with only the conclusion (she wins) predictable.
Do you think the art style is fitting for the story? Actually, yes. Aside from the styles that one encounters in anime changing over time, this one's was typical enough of the '80s. That said though, it really did look about right for the events' settings.
Were the characters well-rounded? N/A: it's a half-hour one-shot, so no, there wasn't enough time to really round out anyone.
Did they have flaws and strengths, or were they unusually strong/smart/stupid? Nah, they were solidly one dimensional: Big Bad Guy is a lummox, Evil Psionicist is evil.
Did the characters react to situations and events in a realistic way? Given their natures and apparent psychologies, yes.
Do you think others will enjoy/dislike this series, even if you didn't? Why? Not really, other than true fans of the genre itself, with an appreciation of the evolution of the artform. If you want a deep story line, profound insights, cool worldbuilding... wrong place to look. It might appeal to shōnen fans, given some mild violence in it, but I'm not certain of that much even.
