Synopsis

Angelise Ikaruga Misurugi is the first princess of the noble Misurugi Empire. The kingdom has seen great power and prosperity due to the advancement of the revolutionary technology known as "Mana," an abstract bending of light that has reduced the world's problems of war and pollution to a timeless peace.

However, not all are blessed with the ability to wield Mana. Those who cannot are labeled "Norma," outcasts of society who are considered a threat to civilization and live under constant persecution, and Angelise herself is one of many who want the Norma exterminated. But as Angelise's sixteenth birthday commences, it is discovered in a shocking revelation that she is actually a Norma. Chaos ensues, the public is outraged, and the once adored princess is exiled to Arzenal: a remote military base where Normas are forced into conscription.

Now, the former royal must adapt to a harsh and vastly different lifestyle; piloting mechanical robots known as "Paramail" to fend off large, devastating beasts referred to as DRAGONs. However, a sinister truth about these savage creatures threatens to change everything.

Cross Age is a fascinating 2010s mecha anime. The reputation it had before I watched it was it's a "so bad it's good" type how cause sexual content(?). I think. No ones ever specified. Its just bad you know, people say its bad.

And instead what I got was just straight up a modern day Go Nagai esque show, just unadulterated drama and edge, mostly in the flavor of prison drama, and just a kind of real tale of overcoming tragedy in a fantastical story of women riding mechs to kill dragons. Like most of the cast being women who pilot mechs is very commendable, including ...

Mixed Feelings
The more I think about this series, the more my head hurts. It's not that it's bad because it knows what it is pandering to and that's the lowest common denominator (hell, even in the finale, Ange just had to jump naked, crotch first into Tusk's face), but so many of the motivations are contrived and the villain does not work for me. Most of these characters don't really work for me. It had some decent action and graphics when it wanted to, and some aspects of it were fun enough that I give them some credit, but this was a pretty frustrating watch for ...

I unfortunately watched the whole thing and was very disappointed with it. The beginning was amazing, and my toes were gripped when people started to die and took a very sharp dark turn. I love that about this anime, that it doesn't shy away from dark stuff. The story with the dragons and world building was goddamn cool as hell, I was locked in by the first episode.

But Ange got a bf who is some random basic guy who has zero personality versus the other 2 chicks she had great chemistry with (Hilda & Princess). Hell, even Salia or ANY other chick in the anime. ...
