Synopsis

In the near future, robot technology has advanced to the point of self-awareness. Under the leadership of the "Black King," machines have decimated the human population and conquered the world. Those who survived the early holocaust have been enslaved for life. But throughout the hardships, a lone hero appears as the savior of mankind. He is Casshan - a fusion of man and machine driven to combat Black King and his forces to the end.

I found out about this OVA while looking on information about Cassharn's sin, and found out, decided to check it out first to see some of the other versions. This was a good series, though I suspect the original might be a bit more coherent.

Story: It's good, but only being four episodes and movie length it definetly feels like some stuff was rushed, and not completly explained, but I still enjoyed it, a nice throwback to the 70's and 80's anime even if it is early 90's.

This anime is ok.
It also is a definition of 'crap got wierd'.
One of the weirdest animes I ever saw.

The story is all over the place. It does't explain some things well. Or at all.
A lot of the time, you sit there going, WTH?!
Some of it is cheesey.

Casshern: Robot Hunter was a random pick, and I have not watched any Casshern series prior to this. While watching, I realized that I was trying to figure out what is what for the most part. Not sure if it was due to the lack of having watched any prequels or that the series itself was a little confusing. I found it quite hard to get into the story.

The art of this series was okay. I wish the art would put a little more emotions into the characters' eyes though, but overall the style was quite in sync with the other anime productions during that ...
