Action and mecha filled this title. The plot were very good, the story will made you felt anxious toward the end of story. The animation was good but tended to decline at the end of series. A quite good series.
I'm a huge fan of this series. The movie wasn't really that good. Just a retelling of the series really. I just really like the story of this series. I think it's very well written.
After waking up from cryogenic sleep in the hope that medical science will have a cure for his mysterious illness, Yuji instead finds himself being woken by a rescue team of soldiers and his world replaced by a nightmare landscape with a race of giant insects known as the Blue replacing man as the dominant species. This is a great sci-fi series with mecha, guns, plenty of blood and guts and some very shocking deaths - this is one of the few anime series I would reccommend viewing. Think Starship Troopers but with mechanised mobile units fighting the battle and you'll have a rough idea.
I don't know how to rated this one. I begun with seeing the first 4 or 5 episode and it intrigue me so much that a year later I brought the boxset see the story through and man, it wasn't disappointing but somethings about it just stoped it from being great. I know they had some buget cuts and a few episodes had scenes of crappy animation. I might as well write a review for this.
