Synopsis

The year is 2046. Detective Ross Sylibus is transferred to Mars when a country singer on her flight is murdered. Making matters more complicated is that the singer is a "Third"—a robot that looks and feels like a human. Sylibus is partnered with Armitage—a beautiful female cop with a bad attitude. As they investigate the murder of the singer and other women on Mars, they uncover a conspiracy that can have them both killed by the Martian government.

If Armitage as a series has a flaw it's that it leaves you wanting more. The moments between Ross & Armitage are way too short.

It is one of the predecessors of the whole 2000s - 2010s series ...

(Clap clap clap clap) Armitige III, well done. After a strong of watching really disappointing OVAs, my expectations were low. Even if my expectations were high however, I would still have enjoyed this as much. There are many positive elements to mention here so be prepare for some gushing.

First off, the music and sound. Goodness me it is perfect. I am really not a fan of anime intro and outro tracks normally. Far far far too often they are cheesy parodies of themselves. This show however is most certainly not. I watched the intro and outro of every episode. Within the show, the music ...

Mixed Feelings
Poor character designs are what drive me away from a lot of shows. I watched this one anyway, and it's not just the art I don't like, I think it's boring as hell. I also don't like the obvious fan service. Like there's a reason people think all weebs are incel freaks and shit like this doesn't help lol. But, like most things, I have to give it some credit. It was animated well and the premise was so cool. Its influence on TV as a whole can't be ignored, it really did inspire a lot of people to create. It's also a staple of ...

American Studios and Production Committees: Risks and Rewards

American Studios and Production Committees: Risks and Rewards

In the early-mid 2000s, US licensing companies were involved in numerous anime Production Committees. It didn't go so well for them. This year, several US licensors are trying their luck on Production Committees again. Will it go better this time?
