| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- it kinda ended sadly i wonder if D-boy ever fully recover except lost memmories sincehis nerve connections been detroyed he can onl create new ones by learning for him "new things" . Overal Nice, with time forgotten anime. It would desereve at least better quality version then what we can get. Even some kind of remake or something to revive the story. 8/10 Sent with Mal Updater |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| This anime had a really, really nice ending. It is so sad for Blade, forced to kill his own family and unable to escape losing his mind. But he fought and fought and never complained. By the time he reached his big brother and the Radam mothership, there was nothing left of him except his hatred and determination to kill all Radam. I also felt a bit sad for Pegas. Even though it was an automaton, it was always by his side, even when D-Boy forgot what it is and told it to leave. In the end Aki and D-Boy were finally able to get together, but there is no telling how extensive the damage to his brain is and that's not something you can just heal. Anyway, D-Boy really is a "space knight" who gave his all and asked for nothing. |
| This ending was way too forced and the fact that takaya survived for pretty much no real reason as well as the fact that the entire reason he even beat omega is due to loads of plot armor and deus ex machina really took away alot of attachment i had with this the show had a interesting and at time gripping plot that reached true greatness, but the execution was unforgivable for alot of the show, characters were all pretty shallow aside from balzak and to a certain extent freeman who seem to be the only 2 characters that had any resemblance of development or more to them than just their initial appearance. The pacing was slow for times it shouldnt have been and in general the execution made some scenes laughably bad HOWEVER, it did still manage to tell a interesting plot and did a good job ending most of the episodes on cliffhangers that make you want to watch the next episodes. The shows flaws should have been enough to bring it down to just being a bad anime that would be forgotten after watching it, but the plot as poorly executed as it was did have resemblances of greatness and at points did actually reach greatness, even if only temporarily. I give this a mid 6/10, i enjoyed it despite all its very apparent flaws, I second the sentiment that this deserves a remake, it'd be great to see this fix many of these execution flaws, and honestly this series would work better as a 26 ep series than this 50 ep one as too much of it was drawn out and there were a unforgivable amount of fillers that brought nothing to the show, that and it'd be good to see a animation bump cause while there were times it looked great in this show, 70% of the time the show looked like it was made in 1972 than 1992 |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |

| Started well, then went downhill, and had hits and misses towards the end. Many likeable characters that could have been fleshed out more and some other storytelling chances were missed as well. D-Boy losing his mind at the end was a nice touch. |

| there was nothing quite as satisfying as watching Blade slice through the parasite ship that mind raped him and his family for an entire year. Just... nothing better. So, Blade lives, but he lost his memory, all of it. That's horribly sad, but still.. it does fit as an ending. Aki takes care of him, Noal is disabled, humanity survived... as guess as far as endings go, that's as much as I could've hoped for. The first half had a better storyline, but the second half had better character development. The animation could be rather off @ times, but overall it was really quite good. The OST was great [not including the terrible 1st op], voice acting was stellar, the main cast was likable, but Aki and D-boy were especially good. At times I felt like I could've given this a 9, but it just lacked that extra push it needed [less recaps, more development for some characters, some plot points were a little under explained], so I'm settling w/ giving a 8 instead. mecharobot said: This anime had a really, really nice ending.

| Did they offer an explanation for sudden powerups during battle in one of the previous episodes? I don't remember. Pegas coming in for the save was a surprise. At times I got annoyed by the dialogue, it felt like all they said were their names. How many times did they say D-boy? This is definitely an anime that would benefit from being trimmed down to 26 or less. |
| this was very nostalgic to rewatch it again from the childhood when it was on TV channel called FoxKids or something like that if I remember right. |
 |
| One of the best things from this anime are definitely the openings. I always never skipped them. |
 |
| Classic tragedy. Not sure why some people have decided to split this into some first/second half division. It's the same story even with a very slight time skip.... It seems like the character designs changed every episode, and sometimes by scene, I especially noticed it with Aki. After episode 10 some weird problems with the dialogue seemed to fade out and the only 'issue' I really had was how much the people on Earth were ignoring the Radam trees. Before they transformed they seemed like something that could have been taken care of slowly even just on a local level. Though a drinking game involving D-Boy's name would prove deadly. It could be messy at times sure, but I don't share the sentiments of some of the people ITT, each episode was uniquely structured in a way to be engaging on an individual level. No 50/50 formulaic shit from what I could tell. That's not something you often see with an anime of this length. The whole conflict, at its center being D-Boy's dysfunctional family and Shinya's (perceived) rivalry with his brother, was very interesting. That the mind control didn't change their personalities was the best decision the writers could have made. |

JizzyHitler said: I am kind of in agreement with you in alot of your points so I will just this short. I think execution and more fleshed out characters was what really bothered me over all. I understand the theme they were going with about Takaya (D-Boy) Loosing his memories, but I think honestly the writers could not come up with any more reasonable scenerio's for this story so they just went with that for the entire series. Its ironic it started out as D-bay pretending to be someone to hide his true motives, but then eventually sucombs to loosing every piece of him self until he's basically cametose by the end. The ending was very rushed I also felt. I mean we did not get hardly anything with Sword and the main villiain Omega. Also correct if im wrong but was the older brother ever forshadowed at all in the early series because I don't remember his name being mentioned back when they shown the first back story of what happened the Radam took over there spacecraft and his father sent Takaya to earth. This ending was way too forced and the fact that takaya survived for pretty much no real reason as well as the fact that the entire reason he even beat omega is due to loads of plot armor and deus ex machina really took away alot of attachment i had with this the show had a interesting and at time gripping plot that reached true greatness, but the execution was unforgivable for alot of the show, characters were all pretty shallow aside from balzak and to a certain extent freeman who seem to be the only 2 characters that had any resemblance of development or more to them than just their initial appearance.

Like they were 8 or 10 years old and fought as kids, so this justifies them wanting to kill each other later on? lol right. Anyways 5/10 for me. Going to watch Tekkaman Blade II now and see if that is any better. |
