Too rushed in one episode but just maybe things will make sense later.

Love Momoko but the transvestite scared the hell out of me \(@__@)/ "no dont touch me!"

Has good potential, ill continue to see how it goes.

Pretty good first ep.

Momoko was hilarious. At first I was like boy another transgendered character but then came the fight scene at metal-age and I just couldn't stop laughing.

Love how the soldiers completely run away after they see what he does to the first two soldiers and then starts to run after them shouting men!

Kuninko got some good moves with that boomerang too.

I guess heterochromia is a trend this season with the little girl in this show and Asura Cryin.

Ah well lets see what Gonzo has up their sleeve with this show.

I really enjoyed that. Nice atmosphere and a rather intriguing set-up they've established. There is definitely some potential here. So far it's my favorite of all the new spring shows that I've sampled.

I couldn't get into it the first half, during all the talking, but the parts with the main character were good. I like the main char and her weapon. The action sequence at the end was awesome. Hated the transsexual dude.

How transsexual when I see his boobs?

i was having a hard time understanding exactly what they were talking about the whole carbon thing, but once it got the action it all made sense

As far as I can tell, the Momoko dude sounds like HardGay, with the Dialogue and all.

Great starting episode!

What happened at the end? It was like a black rain.

Can't wait for the second episode.

It was boring from the start and never got exciting. Actually, it may have become interesting at one point, but i dropped it immediately after dude with boobs started kissing other dudes.

Lame story and horrible characters. No thanks.

I do too lol.

I really liked the boomerang though. D: I thought it was pretty cool lol.
(I also like her shoes for some reason).
Hilarious episode.
Was boring though at the random parts with the agreement thingy and with that random lady that appears.

Completely ridiculous storytelling, oh silly Gonzo. Why did you make 3 shows in one season, why not just focus all your budget into this one series, but no, you screwed yourselves over yet again.

Looks like this is gonna be failed potential :/

And damn, they could have got some better voice actors, talk about ruining a characters image.

I wasn't sure what to make of this show. The last 5 minutes or so hooked me.

Love the blue-haired tran. She's fabulous and I might watch just to get good doses of her.

I must say though... .the character designs were merged better in Last Exile than they were here. Oh well. It was just the first episode after all.

She looks like an interesting enough character, awwww <3

If anyone doesn't understand the bit about carbon credits, it just means that the government/some international organization that deals with excess carbon emission, gives out 'credits' to each country that emits carbon. These 'credits' each has a limit of how much carbon can a country produce and therefore effectively reducing the total carbon emission in the world. And correct me if I'm wrong, these 'credits' can be sold/bought/traded by various countries and this is where the 'carbon index' thingy comes in. Idk, from what I learnt in Economics, it should be like this.

Anyway, great 1st episode, looking forward to the next one,

So this means that MEDUSA program sort of crunches credits or makes other country credits disappear.

AoT are very good with this series.

Yeah, I guess it's some sort of an underground monopoly that's trying to rally some back-up by targetting industrializing countries that need more credits by offering illegalized reduction in carbon taxes.

What if you like women? Or if you're bisexual? Sexuality is not that simple.

ETA: Okay, that was kind of off-topic. My point is that just because you (general you, I am not claiming that Sick Bastard-kun said any of these things) do not acknowledge a character's gender identity does not mean that it's an anime full of OMG yucky gay shemales.

remember that dude who had a baby and it turned out he was a she that turned into a dude?

Momoko and Miko being there just gives us an opportunity to laugh at flaming homosexuals.

I feel bad. I watched the episode and didn't really find it all that interesting. I thought it was very forgettable. Just recently I read all these reviews praising it and I had to wonder if we watched the same show.

The entire time the little girl was on screen I kept thinking of Burst Angel (I think Amy was the little girl's name). I'm not saying BA was the first to do the loli-computer genius, but that's all I could think about.

I'll watch a couple more episodes because of all the positive buzz it's been getting. I feel like this is a show I should like.
