Aquarion Evol (TV)

This doesn't have a thread yet, right? I also don't think it's being simulcasted, so it might have a limited audience here. Someone might want to correct me on that though.

Anyway yeah, I splurged the first 2 episodes (or is it 3? I think 1+2 were aired together) tonight, was impressed with what I saw. I wasn't bowled over in terms of story, but the production is absolutely spot-on. I've never seen any of the original Aquarion franchise, so maybe I'm missing key plot elements? Do you need prior knowledge of the franchise to enjoy this one?

Very impressive visuals, cute characters, meh story.

You can easily think of the show as a reincarnation of the first show, which is thematically pretty cool. There are many of the same elements, even if they aren't literally identical. The original itself was a reincarnation of a hypothetical story in the past, so it's not that big a deal if you haven't seen the original. If you like what you see, you might consider checking the original out, though.

These characters aren't making much of an impression on me, which is a big change from the first series. Other than that, it's every bit the stupidly entertaining nonsense party the first series was.

I actually finished up the first series a few weeks ago so I could check this one out. So far I think this one is a decent step up. I like the characters more. I the find the story to be a little more coherent. And I think its paced a bit better as well. Its nothing great, but I'm enjoying it.

This seems like the creator is a fan of Vandread. So far the series is pretty good.

Hi, who is the Japanese Voice cast for the main character "Amata Sora"? It is not listed in the Anime News Network guide page to the anime. His voice sound like Ouma Shu in Guilty Crown. Question

Wikipedia, god bless its soul, says it's Yūki Kaji, so you're spot on thinking it's Shu.

It is Very Happy

I'm enjoying this incarnation much more than Aquarion. I really found the characters in Aquarion unpleasant to spend time with. I like this bunch much better. Can't help imagining what this show would look like in BD on muh 54" plasma.

I'm surprised there isn't more discussion on this show. I'm enjoying it. There are a lot of things I'm still confused about. I'm thinking that any elemental woman can make it through the portal to Vega, but many others think that's not true.

Looks like Amata's mother is spoiler[Silvia who is encased in liquid in Vega] Perhaps she didn't make it though the portal entirely whole? I wonder who his father is and why she went.

I'm still enjoying the show, just don't have much to discuss, really. Some aspects like the animation and character design greatly appeal to me but the main plot occasionally has me scratching my head. It's a two cour so I'm hoping stuff will become clearer later on.

It's like Star Driver but without the FABULOUS.

This last episode was pretty good. Kagura is obviously having spoiler[opposite day each and every day. Hating Mikono isn't.]

Speaking of hating Mikono, she finished bottom of a 'Girls of Aquarion Evol' poll recently. I don't agree; she's by far my favourite of the lot. The tsundere obsession is still in full swing, it seems, judging by the winner.

Results of said poll, if anyone cares.

Pineapples... Stay away from them.

I've been loving every episode from the beginning and the music is just glorious. The characters are nice and the mecha are awesome even if they're CG. EVOL seems to be very different from Genesis in many ways although there are very notable similarities, mainly characters. I would love to comment more except there isn't much to really talk about.

Now, the latest episode - I've never seen Gen/Zen lose his cool. spoiler[I don't think he expected Jin's death. Damn Mykage be trollin'.] Aquarion Gepard also finally became useful.

Speculation wise, there's really been nothing to really put a basis on who is whose reincarnation. Kagura looks a bit and acts like Apollo. Amata has the Solar Wings and no 'smell' but many think he may be Apollonius's reincarnation. Mikono may be Slyvia due to her 'promise' with Kagura. And Zessica - people think she may be Celiane.

The show is a wild ride and enjoyable as hell. I wish there were more information present to speculate more but the show is already awesome enough.
