![]() But near the end of the next-to-last disc Gainax started leaving its fingerprints on the series. Oh, all right, it was quite funny.at first. This is one of the shows that they seem to of tried to keep it as original to the script as possible but sadly, it makes the characters sound odd. They say it in the Japanese dub two (Although it is really freaken funny hearing a French accent with Japanese language). It's not just the English with the saying and the French voice. But then how the heck is Arumi's dad able to speak so strong French when he is daughter sounds Texan still? I also don't get why every 5 seconds, Arumi has to say her cheesy line. I guess it would be something to show that it's Osaka like but I don't know about this. The voices I'm not so sure why the English voices seem to have a southern Texan accent. The ending is odd as well with old still images. The opening is very disappointing looking pretty much like it was just clips from the first episode. Colors just blend into each other, characters become miss-shapened, and a lot of odd things pop up from the blobs. Lots of times, they had a runny eggs approach and I was grasping at straws trying to figure out what I was even seeing. In fact, I could say that this is a lot like Final Fantasy Unlimited and FLCL more. Most of Madhouses stuff looks so much better then this stuff. I didn't find out till later that Gainax did have a hand in it but I don't understand how Madhouse has a hand in it. Unfortunately from the start, I could see many things in the artwork that makes me think Gonzo or Gainax right off the bat. The artwork is pretty vintage, but you can see signs of today's crisp looking art. ![]() I'm at least happy they don't give me the middle finger and tell me to read the manga like how FFU does. Threw the show, I have not seen any reason why that happened although it explains just a little about who Mune and Eutus are in the real world. Now she seems to be rather slutty and show off a lot of skin. When they show the history, she was pretty sweet and seemed rather. A mysterious man with a cape and long hair, chiseled face. I can see a lot of similar things between Eutus of this show and Kaze from Final Fantasy Unlimited making feel that they went for stereotypes. Long story short, it's when things that don't make sense become funny when you're running on very little sleep.) The character designs are rather generic mostly. ![]() (The reason for this is a very long story. Part of the fun was that I had no sleep and had a moment of what I call 'ask me if I'm a stone' moment. The idea is hard to figure out and really makes me feel a bit stupid but as I was watching this in the early morning, I didn't really care. Where FLCL had an underlining meaning about growing up, this one seems to be about dealing with change. ![]() Now, just like in FLCL, this show seems to have an underlining story line behind it all but most of the time, I think it's lost in translation. It's just pure insanity and that's what makes it funny I think. A lot of this stuff is odd and like Puni Puni Poemi or Excel Saga. It wasn't boring at all to me because the story line just went a bit crazy for these two children. I watched it mostly to see what the hell they would come up with next. The first part is like a slice of life show, the second part is really created like a video game like a RPG, the third is a Star Wars Parody the list goes on and on of what this show seems to do. I think Gainax just loves to create some tripped out shows. What do I know, I'm just some guy on the internet. So yeah, I like this anime, but hay, everyone's entitled to their opinions I guess. I think the subs are better than the dubs, and that the series is funny and fantastic all round. In fact compared to most of the episodes, the last one is pretty calm and collective. I also hardly think the ending of this anime was "epic". Gainax wrote and produced Abenobashi, if someone else did it, it would be something else like Cold Mountine or whatever. If he's had different parents, he wouldn't be him. It's like saying a mate of mine would have been better off if he'd had different parent's. It's IS a Gainax product, it couldn't ever be anything else. Saying "This series was ruined by poor characterization and by being a Gainax product" doesn't make any sense. But the entire series is made by Gainax, so of course it's going to have it's fingerprints all over it. Saying that Gainax started leaving its fingerprints on the series near the end makes it sound like production was taken over by them from another team. I disagree with the comment left by 'garfnerkopin97'.
