Downright fucking detestable. This is what gives anime a bad name. The animation may be "fluid", but it's ugly and unpleasant to look at.
This is like getting shit on through animation.
After awakening on Earth with no recollection of who they are or how they got there, otherworlders Pandy and Retro go on a crime spree. But they're soon apprehended and sent to Dead Leaves, a high-tec...( read more

This was like an insane bastard child between Aeon Flux, Fooly Cooly, Tank Girl, and Invader Zim. The action was non stop, and the visuals were complete eye candy. Totally crazy from start to finish, and deserves to be watched even if just for its uniqueness. Stunning to behold a...( read more)

Alright.
This is by far the craziest fifty-five minutes I have ever spent watching an anime, but what do you expect from the art director of FLCL? It's a pure cyber-kinetic adrenaline rush from start to finish, with bull...( read more) -

December 26, 2009This is the kind of anime that rips your eyeballs out with a wooden spoon, dips them in LSD, and proceeds to put them back in with the delicacy of a Desert Eagle. Incredibly fluid, fast and plain in your face, over the top, mindblowing anime. If you like FLCL, you will love this!!
This is the kind of anime that TRUE anime fans enjoy. Not the typical watered down junior high school crap like Naruto and Bleach.
