Cybersix is an iconic staple of 90s Canadian television. If you were alive during this era, you likely have memories staying up late on those summer days sipping an ice tea and watching this. Decades later, even despite it's short lifespan of 13 episodes, it's still fondly remembered and holds up to this day.

Based on an Argentinian comic of the same name, Cybersix follows the adventures of the titular protagonist Cybersix. Having moved into the city as Adrien, being a teacher by day, and a crime-fighting heroine by night! Stopping the evil Von Richter and his son Jose, while keeping a low profile as not to reveal her non-human identity. Among her allies are the kindhearted hunk Lucas Amato, her brother in the form of a panther named Data-7, and a street smart kid named Julian.

The art style is amazing. It really captures the look and feel of the source material, but in a way never before experienced. The colour palettes are consistently awesome, going from a cozy warm feeling in the daytime sequences, to a dark and atmospheric place at night. The animation, done by TMS, is fantastically fluid and makes every fight sequence feel like it has impact.

I would give characters 10/10 if not for Lori. She was a bit annoying and comes off as a stalker, though I also know part of this is because of her role in the original comic, which they toned down as much as they could to suit a younger audience. The character animation is also very nicely done. None of the animation feels recycled or cheap, it all fits the characters very well.

If you want an awesome action show about what it truly means to be human, give Cybersix a chance. It's a classic of animation for a reason.
