Synopsis

Hikaru Amatsuga's days of tranquility come to a sudden end when he rescues Alma, a mechanical arm crying for help. Alma fuses with his jacket, introducing Hikaru to the world of mechanical arms: mysterious, sentient weapons that normally become a part of their users' bodies. Forced to flee for his life, Hikaru is eventually captured by Aki Murasame, a twin mechanical arms user working for ARMS, an organization that protects the machines against unethical treatment.

The Kagami Group, a nefarious organization that treats mechanical arms as mere tools, seeks to recover Alma. Hikaru is deemed a failure by ARMS for his lack of natural predisposition to be an mechanical arm wielder, so Aki is assigned to be his bodyguard. But Aki is defeated by Jun Kagami, who cruelly tears out her two mechanical limbs, condemning the girl to a slow death. Unwilling to abandon Aki to her grim fate, Hikaru miraculously awakens his power and neutralizes Kagami. Now a full member of ARMS, Hikaru is determined to unravel the truth about mechanical arms and protect his newfound friends and allies.

Mecha-Ude is the most underrated anime of Fall 2024, hands down. In fact, it’s one of the most underrated shows of the entire year and it angers me so much because this show is amazing. The long crowdfunding journey for the show to even get made makes it all that much more special as well. Sawano and Yamamoto on the OST, classic studio trigger vibes, awesome characters and great sci-fi action? This had all the ingredients of an instant classic and for me it lived up to that.

Mecha-Ude is one of the few legitimate passion projects we have in modern anime. This actually ...

As much as I want to promote this anime because of their dedication as I said in the "pilot" episode, I might want you guys to watch this with low expectations. Trust me because you would definitely be highly disappointed.

Let's start this review with animation. I am in love with it. Not only did it feel nostalgic it also didn't use 3D, at all. It is those classic cartoons, anime, or animation TV shows back in 2011. I can't praise enough how much I love this animation quality. Again, they should be proud of their achievement, they got a new fan. Although the animation is ...

This is probably the most generic shonen story possible. A young boy beats up evil bad guys with supernatural strength and the power of friendship. The show doesn’t try to do anything new or interesting, and it doesn’t hide that fact. This is an unapologetically mediocre series that is fine if you really have nothing else to scratch the shonen itch.

I’ve given this a 6 only because the animation for this show is actually exceptional, and often carries the pretty boring plot line. Also, Sawano Hiroyuki does the music, and most of the emotional high points were thanks solely to him.
