Story 5
The story revolves around a mechanical suit called a IS that is so advance it makes all other weapons out dated and here is the kicker this suit can only be piloted by women, with the expectation of Ichika Orimura. I gave the story a 5 cause their really is no main plot and so many questions go unanswered, why can the IS only be piloted by women, also it was said to IS was made to be used in space, but apparently that was scraped and it is now used for sporting events. As stated before the story has no main plot in episode 4 a unmanned IS appeasers and goes wild and it seems like this is going to lead somewhere, but after a couple episodes this plot disappears. Other than lack of a story line I found IS to be quite funny in entertaining.
Art 8
The Animation was very well done, especially the CGI for the IS also the characters where well drawn.
Sound 8
The sound effects for the IS and the fight scene where pretty good, This was one anime where I really like the English dub over the subbed version. In the subbed version even though most of the main characters are from different countries they all sound Japanese, where as in the Dubbed version you can tell what country the character is from by the way they talk. Also has on of the catchiest opening song I have ever heard.
Character 6
I didn't find the charters very creative the seem like the typical characters you find in a harem anime. First you have are male protagonist Ichika who is so dense it is pathetic, of course if he wasn't so dense he would probly get in to trouble more than he already does. Then you have your typical female characters, like the childhood friend and such.
Enjoyment 9
I gave a 9 for enjoyment cause I found even with all the major flaws this series was pretty funny. I found myself laughing a lot most at how dense are male protagonist is and the situations that happen because he is so clueless.
Overall 6
If you are looking for a anime with a good plot turn around, if you are looking for a anime series that is funny and has a good light mood and you don't mind fan serves, then why not give IS a try.
