Interesting movie we got here, despite it’s clichéd synopsis of the esper guy who has his limited powers and only can use a great amount of power when cornered like a mouse. I’m sure I’ve watched something with a similar synopsis before.
The thing about Ai City despite it’s clichéd synopsis and corny title is it does have more inside than meets the eye, especially it’s visuals, the animation is pretty good and provided some very interesting scenes and allied to the esper/psychic nature atmosphere of the anime, it had some very good scenes in it.
It tried to include a wide concept into one hour ...

Even as an 80s nostalfag I really couldnt get into this. Its trainwreck, really. Its like they took every bad cliche of the time and threw it in a pot and this came out. Plot is all over the place and the soundtrack is really bad. They also repeat the same tracks too much for a 90 minute movie.

Also, way too many flashback scenes. Again, this is a fucking 90 minute movie. We dont need this.

It does have some pretty colorful psychedellic scenes though, and the first car chase sequence was pretty cool.

But franky, only watch this if you have OCD about seeing every 80s ...

At the 1st half the story is shallow yet fun, the bad guys want to kidnap the hero's girl and the ...
