Busou Shinki Moon Angel

This is just my personal view after watching the first episode.

It felt like it was a mish mash of everything. It was like they were trying to do everything. The first episode progressed very quickly and I felt that an extra 10min would have been better for the anime to set the scene. The fight scenes were good as they used many angles but the story just seems too far out. It felt like a parallel prequel to Chobits.
There was a little cuteness here and there but not everything was clarified.

Imagine watching OnePiece for the first time, Luffy is introduced and suddenly the rest ... of his crew too. Your wondering who they are and how they met which they will explain in the later episodes but that just takes the fun out of gradually introducing each crew member.

What I am trying to say is that it doesn't seem like a good anime but a little longer would have made it better and not make it feel like it was rushed and if this how the rest of the anime is set out then I might just 'kick the bucket' on this anime.

This isn't going to be a spoiler but given the description it might as well be.

This short series is nothing but the ultimate of anime cliches. It had the poor boy who wanted to be the best. The super-secret weapon that escapes. The boy finds this weapon. The weapon loses it's memory. Weapon and boy become friends. The weapon goes loses control and everyone is afraid of it. Then the shop keeper who used to work at this top secret facility knows all about this weapon. This weapon is part of a larger top-secret weapon. Oh ... heck, you get the picture. It's all telegraphed if you've seen many animes in your past. Of course I'm being generous with the ratings. The only thing missing is the fan-service appeal.

This series isn't horrible but it could have been better. Who am I kidding, it couldn't. We've already seen this story in "Angelic Layers".
