Mixed Feelings
SUMMARY:

The combination of the crazy characters and the kind of absurd story give the anime the potential to be very enjoyable or just kind of a drag. It really depends on what sort of mood you are in. If you are willing to suspend your disbelief and just go along with things, you will probably appreciate the action and humorous highlights provided by the colorful cast.


STORY:

Every few episodes you start settling in to what you think are the themes that have been set for the show, and then something COMPLETELY RANDOM comes along and blows away your expectations. Occasionally there are giant robot battles and super soldiers (like a gundam plot), occasionally there are alien-like super creatures reminiscent of an 80s capcom game, and occasionally there is police drama like style. I am just hitting on a few themes that come up. There is plenty more strangeness.

ART:

Well there are a lot of scantily clad ladies with guns....

SOUND:

Kind of tacky jpop openings and closings. The theme song is pretty catchy.

CHARACTERS:

All of the characters are, well, characters. There's the super-human combat beast, Joe, the adorably helpless Meg, the brainy loli character Amy, the brainy plotting Sei, and the random slice-of-life bakery guy. The combinations of their personalities in the outrageous and overall dramatic situations the story puts them in make for a flavorful experience.

ENJOYMENT:

Depending on what state of mind you go into Bakuretsu Tenshi with, you will either love it or hate it. It comes off like it is attempting to have a serious plot, but the plot is just so unintentionally ridiculous that you will be disappointed if you try to take it seriously.
