Story: The plot line of the OAV is fairly interesting. Nothing particularly special but nonetheless interesting but the suspense builds up about half-way though episode one.
Art: This was the reason I was most concerned about when I heard Switch was getting an anime series. Because of Naked Ape's unique art style it can create problems for the character designs when making it an anime. I'm happy to say they did not disappoint. Kai's hair colour is not the same as his manga counterpart and his eyes tend to get really shiney but other than that I have nothing but praise for the art. The
art was consistent and of very good quality making it a pleasure to watch.
Sound: What can I say? Stellar cast. The theme songs are nothing special but they are perfectly suitable for Switch but the background music is surprisingly notable. I was expecting a little more rock feel to it but instead it was more orchestra. I especially like the twisted violin waltz that is played at the beginning of the first episode. The other songs give off a very pleasant feel. In my opinion, the background music made up for the not so memorable theme songs.
Character: Kai has very genuine emotions and Hal actions are very intriguing which made me want to learn more about him. They are charters that are amiable and interesting but most of the people who watch Switch would already know this from reading the manga.
In conclusion, Switch really is worth watching. I hope that the producers consider making another OAV sometime soon. read more
