After watching Interstella5555, another project that Matsumoto worked on, I was expecting something as good as that, maybe even better. But I was very disappointed.

My biggest problem is that the animation and the music don't match. The song has its own story, totally different from the one that's shown in the anime. Maybe the project doesn't target an English speaking audience, so then the words of the song don't really matter. But even if the soundtrack was instrumental it still wouldn't have been any good. There are a lot of scenes that aren't even properly timed to the music. The feeling that I ... get form the song doesn't match the feeling that I get from the animation. I'm sorry to say this, but I've seen AMVs, made by amateurs, that are better than this.

The animation itself is pretty good with an interesting story, Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is awesome, but combined they suck.

There's not much to say about this OVA. It's an anime that tries to recreate a 70s-80s american action movie (a bad one), and for the most part it does a pretty good job.

Story: Well, there's just enough story to justify the action scenes. Basically a boy and a girl discover some UFO fragment and they're chased by government agents who try to recover it.

Characters: There's no character development. After watching it I can't even remember the names of the main characters. There's not a single moment where you might actually feel something for them.

Art: For the most part it's okay (keep in mind ... that it's an anime made in the 80s). The only problem that I had was with the shading style witch was horribly done.

Sound: The whole movie has just 3 or 4 tracks. They're the same type of songs you'll find in old action movies. Some of them are pretty good, they fit the mood of the story well. They're definitely the best part of this anime.

So, if you're bored (like I was) and have nothing better to do, you might wanna give it a try. The whole thing's about 45min long and it will keep you interested till the end.

After watching the movie I must say that one thing sets it apart from the previous ones and that's Nami's breasts. They were bouncing around and jiggling, making it very hard to concentrate on reading the subtitles XD
Combined with a great animation, it was quite an enjoyable experience.

The story was okay, nothing special. If you liked the previous movies you'll like this one too.
