Zoids Genesis gives a different feeling other than the other Zoid series. The story is well written, animation is good and character development is one of its strong points.
The main character Ruuji, a village kid and at first a bit naive but as the story goes along, his character grows to a point where in he could be a leader. Even though the story is a bit serious, there are times when you will laugh because of how other characters are shown throughout the series.
Brand new zoids are shown which gives it a bit of originality. Murasame liger's transformations are shown with detail (especially the background score used).
All in all, it is a great series, the story isn't always serious and the characters are amusing and unique.
