There comes a time in ones life where the entirety of their being becomes imbibed into a certain element extraneous from the mundanities of reality; Welcome to the world of Eureka 7
First off I want to say that this is my favorite anime. I've yet to watch anything else that pars in "the feels" department. Overall the story, to me, was perfect and the music, sound and characters ? Well above today's current standards.
Ok, so EUREKA 7, it is about a boy, Renton Thurston, he is an ordinary boy yet he is not. Renton Thurston is the son of Adrock Thurston, Adrock was a
...
hero who created the Nirvash, the Nirvash is a Mecha Unit that served as one of the military's prized fighting units. Renton Thurston lives with his Grandpa in a shoddy, run-down, perpetuating complacency kind-of town but wants out. Renton's young, 14 in fact, and aspires to become a famous lifter and a part of a renegade, anarchist group called Gekko State, Renton wants to be just like the leader of Gekko State Holand Novak.
One day a strange serendipitous calamity occurs in Renton's town, disrupting the town's quiesce, a beautiful green haired girl in the Nirvash Mecha Unit appears. Renton decides to board with this mysterious girl, after being requested to do so, he then finds out that this girl is associated with the Gekko State and down the road continues to extricate more mysteries.
I don't want to spoil the anime, I highly suggest watching the English dub over the Japanese one - I know what you're thinking and I thought that, too but the voice actors and agency did an amazing job and you can tell how much love and fastidious care was put in; The dub is extremely fluid and all the characters have charm, there's also a lot of visual content that would be lost if reading the subtitles and that would heavily detract from the experience. To me this anime is a transcending ride, you experience the phases of a coming-of-age boy and those around him in the most awesome scenario ever (as a renegade, fighter, lover of a female pilot, friend of the coolest cohorts, son of a hero and more) - also Renton is just the effing man, he's a protagonist you actually like straight off the bat, he is someone a good person can relate to and he is a great rolemodel in my opinion.
Do watch this series, I implore you. The quality in all aspects is unmatched. It is entertainment at it's best. The music is gorgeous and ferocious, the characters fantastic and hearty, the baddies are bad and not cliche. The story is ... the quintessential experience of the love phases and battles of adversity at it's finest. DO watch this series, I implore you.
DO watch this series, it is fantastic, the soundtrack is mind-blowing, the character d
