THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well it's out and Arnval Mk. 2 is totally adorable in the following,

she looks really innocent there.

While the action such as the following,

remained really good. I almost got the good action times of Strike Witches. Unfortunately I could not believe what the spoiler
revealed nor I understood how exactly is the damage and all. What I do know is that it looks to be some kind of parody thing about plastic figurines. Well they look like them once you see how big the crows are in the spoiler above but in fact I believe they are called Shinki. Well I don't think they are human at nor anything like it but they could be mini androids that fly think of Strike Witches but more machine less human.

Action promising and maybe some drama/emotions going around later on with that boy. Of all things, Konami does that? Action better as good as this episode for shorts like these. Although I do remember D4 Princess being good like this.

This reminds me of Angelic Layer

The figures are created in a lab for some sort of top secret project, well at least we have some dark plot in this. Arnval is quite cute though, I wonder how Tsubasa will fix her up. Oh please keep the romance out of this.

Yeah I know! There might be some, you know how some people are with their things but at least drama in terms of some dispute is good too. We want to know how emotions are in the Shinkis.

Drama is great, I would also love to know the Shinki's emotions but I don't want Tsubasa having a crush on Arnval, I know this is otaku fare but please just keep it an action/drama.

Oh shizz. This is totally a super high tech Angelic Layer.

Tsubasa is the cutest darn thing I've ever seen, although it's so generic that he isn't popular in school. Nice show, will continue watching, wish it was longer though.

Lovely first episode and expecting big things from this as a overly huge fan of the game series, figures and such. I'm seeing lots of potential.Too bad so few appreciate it, but whatever. <3 I only hope it's not going to be a super short running series.

*points to sig* That's a Busou Shinki but she's not going to be in this..

I don't really like the setting of the story...since there's too many anime with same setting like the protagonist found the ??? from some places.
example Chobits, Kowarekake no Orgel and others. (yeah these are great anime)

and I don't like that they choose the protagonist as a kid...

It's like Cosmicbreak mixed with Angelic Layer lol. Since I always like hot girls in robotic suits, I'll be looking forward to this.

Damn, had me fooled there in the beginning. I thought they were human sized but I was wrong.

Oh what's this? At first I thought Infinity Stratos, until I saw how tiny they were. So what this is based on some plastic figmas or something? (Love the designs btw.)

But yeah, five minutes is kinda short.

thats exactly what i thought. im glad im not the only one. as soon as it started i thought i was watching infinte stratos and then when she crashed onto the truck i was like. Hang on, is she really small or is that truck really big. then crows confirmed it for me. I loved the first ep and im looking forward to the next one

Kinda reminds me of that Angelic Layer series. The main Shinki is cute.

Can't wait for the next episode this sounds like a nice series even though the episodes will only be 5 minutes long.

They're 15 cm tall figures with full AI that fire live projectiles at one another. They're basically mini-robots that are programmed to fight one another in a way that you fight with Pokemon, Medabots, or the more appropriate comparison - Angelic Layer. Google is your friend! :P.

Also, they can idle around in your room doing whatever or they can fight it out in arenas to win prices and such (i.e Angelic Layer).

You place three CSC cores into their chests to tell them what attributes to focus on - Attack, defense, mobility, dodge, terrain advantages, and etc. Somewhere in the show Arnval's chest armor gets broken and CSC's are exposed and short circuit her programming.

What are CSC cores? What are they and do what for functions.

Can program these with a laptop?

Sry but I did not listen to Angelic Layer nor any of your mentions but am familiar with Pokemons.

Think of CSC cores as very small marbles with attribute data stored on them. You place three of the desired CSC Cores into the Shinki before activation and they'll focus on such attributes when you boot them up. If you give them attack cores then they shall focus on attack and if you give them defensive types then they shall focus on defensive. Arnval's three cores were damaged by Starf at the beginning causing her to short circuit.

I'm unsure if you can program it with a laptop, I think its preprogrammed by the in-series manufacturer that makes Shinki's.

It's alright. Angelic Layer - Aired around 2002 and Busou Shinki came out at around 2006 with the Anime this year.

You're welcome. If you want to study everything Shinki there is more about the cores here:

Edit: So Arnval's three CSC Cores might be focused on Attack, mobility, and SP growth.

This seems like it will be pretty good. The armor on the broken shinki sort of reminds me of KOS-MOS armor from Xenosaga. Wish the episodes were longer than 5 minutes though.

It reminds me of Angelic Layer, Infinite stratos, and KOS-MOS from xenossaga series combined.

Animation quality is high but I'm disappointed on how incredibly short this is. Yeah, I know this is ONA, but still...

Pretty interesting. I never knew they were small action figures until she dropped from the truck and the crows picked her up. She looked life-sized before that.

Hey all,

The reason there haven't been any more episodes of Shinki is because there are no available raws. Busou Shinki: Moon Angel was available on the Japanese PSN network to owners of the game for a small fee per episode, and unfortunately there was no way to capture the video.

The status of the show is up for debate too. There is speculation that the series was completely cancelled, which may explain the lack of information on the internet.

Apparently, on the main site, the delivery of the episodes have been suspended but they will later announce a way for us to view later episodes or something.

I wouldn't say cancelled because a blu-ray is being sold "soon" with all the episodes. Or so I been told and read the last time I checked. Did a quick search and it says blu-ray release on March, 15th, 2012

http://www.konamistyle.jp/sp/busou_moon_angel/index.html?style=busou_potal

I'm still waiting to see what Konami is doing with this show, they haven't treated their own line properly as of late. They killed an MMO (Battle Rondo) and many are not happy with that.

Edit: Seeing as how this is PSN related I'm guessing it has something to do with the delays of BattleMaster Mk. II DLC content. One problem effecting another from the looks of things.

Now that the Shinki DLC's are out for the PSP Battle Masters MK 2 game you can expect the second episode to come this Thursday, November 24th, 2011! Maybe a day earlier if you keep prodding at the Japanese PSN store with a Japanese pre-paid card in hand.
