Wow, as expected the end kind of didnt go as smooth as it should have.

I mean seriously... "lets follow the helicopter with my car!"
But no matter how rediculous it was. The end result of the chase was pretty awesome. It even had a cliche' climax with the doctor >_<

But its hilarious how he still can joke around even though he almost ruined everything. Overall the experience was fun at best. Not memorable or realistic, but fun.

6/10 overall

3/5 for the episode.

...i didnt know cellphones worked even after being submerged in water.

Wow, seriously, that was a totally cliche episode xD.

5/10 overall.

lol I love how the bad guy just watches as the car is heading for the helicopter and doesn't change his expression or even attempt to jump and save himself.

I was expecting way more of an ending then this. The way everything happened just felt like a letdown.

Also what was he doc making in the end with the bullets? Bullets that can take out glass maidens or bullets that would turn you into one? It's hard to tell since he was dressed up as the bad guy lol.

Actually, chasing a helicopter with a car isn't that far fetched. Even though they are aircraft, helicopters are painfully slow compared to post-1920s airplanes. The highest speed ever achieved by a helicopter was a shade under 250 mph, and then, only on a relatively short dash (15 mile course). By comparison, cars with standard internal combustion engines have made it as high as 400 mph, and the 250 mph barrier was broken in 1932 (and for the record, that milestone was broken by conventional aircraft in 1923).
The helicopter is clearly from the Huey series (Bell 204, 205, 210, or 214). Most of those top 150 mph in a dash, and cruise at up to 130-145 depending on the variant. The fastest variants are only a shade above that, at 160 or so, which is still slower than many commercial sports cars (routinely 200+ mph). Few helicopters, civilian or otherwise, can exceed 180 mph without modification.
So yes, many sports cars can go faster than most helicopters. Seems somewhat strange, but actually true.

This concludes Erwin's brief segment on "interesting things you probably didn't know."


That said, it was indeed mostly cliched, with the exception of how quickly the actual conflict ended. They had much more aftermath than I expected (good thing), but at the cost of the first part being rather unsatisfying. And, Porilyn still steals the show.

What a lame ending to a briefly promsing, but woefully disappointing show. This was such a hack job for an ending, and they still managed to do an incompetent job of making it feel full.

2/5 for the episode
5/10 for the show

Meh, it was bound to be lame. When I started this anime, I expected something more. 5/10

The ending was the expected one.

I know the entire series it's quite cliché, but it was still an enjoyable one. So... overall a 6 goes for fine. I don't have complaints :)

Also, LOL @ the doc and Monica dressed as the bad guys, that made my day haha

ending was expected, it came off a little lame, and it was a bit disappointing, but I don't think it is as bad as everyone says. I believe it deserves more credit than it gets. 7/10 is my overall score.

*Also, when the car flew into the helicopter, the man didn't even look scared, as he was about to die.

Funny how the doc and Monica dressed as the bad guys, I agree with Vinzalf.

It was a pretty good show overall. Not the best, but it certainly didn't deserve the amount of scorn it got.

Wasn't actualy that bad, it was interesting for a while, then it sort of died down, but I still enjoyed it.

I have to say though, the way chi-boss kept saying during the series that he 'hated guns,' I thought he has going to come out as some sort of weapon expert/marksman like porilyn, but I guess he's an expert driver instead.
