| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Horrible, just horrible. Bad script, bad dialogues, decent visuals. What the heck did I just watch. It sure wasn't even remotely Votoms-like. This kind of directing might've passed during early 80's and even then it would be a laughable effort. And to think it was shown in theaters, what a joke. 2/10 aka 1/5 |
"There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret place." |
| I thought it was OK. I didn't see the original Votoms from the 80s, so I don't have anything to compare it to. It probably would have done better as a series. I gave it a 5/10. |
 |
| Damn I do not like the direction in which this series goes ... It is a pity because I had big expectations of ... If Votoms were like before... |
 |
| It was ok I guess but honestly I don't see why add it to the votoms franchise, it has no relation, they could name it Gundam Finder and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference, it's so generic. |
 |
| Pretty meh, but good enough for some random Votoms action. Really, I'd rather have these spinoffs cover some unseen part of the big war or something. These random little stories from random places doesn't really give anything to the setting as a whole. |
| it was alright... haven't seen the original series, dont want to but meh all in all pretty good visuals and story...very compacted 7/10 |
| Literalized social strata? A scrappy dump-dwelling boy with aspirations? A "the good guys are the bad guys and vice versa" reveal halfway through? A kidnapped princess? A gallant knight? My goodness, it's all cliches! I really dislike how everyone uses robots for everything and they make exaggerated gestures to match the operator's emotional state. Every other VOTOMS work has ATs depicted as heavy military hardware. Why are teenagers goofing around with them? And even the Bottomer robots seem much more advanced than what we see in other VOTOMS works. what gives? Like others have said, it doesn't feel like VOTOMS at all. They don't even call the robots "ATs". Instead, "Altos". I would have liked it a little more if they hadn't burdened me with false expectations by misappropriating the VOTOMS name. |
| You guys have no love. This short OVA was amazing, they actually had the balls to try this. Shonen VOTOMS with fairy tale elements, and the smoothest combat animation the franchise has ever seen, it's just beautiful. |
They are neither plants nor animals. They differ from other forms of life such as the micro-organisms and the fungi. Instead they resemble the primeval body of life and are generally known as Mushi. Their existence and appearance are unknown to many and only a limited number of humans are aware of them. |
| This wasn't too bad. It was certainly better than "Case;Irvine." There were no Scopedogs, but that's okay. It was interesting to see some different AT designs, called "Altos" in this OVA. The visuals were done quite good for CGI, and the only problem that I can really find, is that is was too short. If this were a long-running series, it could've been something truly incredible. This is truly underrated. Aki may not be Chirico, but he's still pretty cool. |
