MAN, the first few episodes of Genocyber are so good. They just ooze with that early 90's over-the-top cyberpunk goodness. (A heads up about that: some of the violence is ALOT and might make some queasy. I'm talking people getting torn apart in slow motion, organs pouring out, the whiole nine yards) I love the city setting and the designs of some of the cybernetic mechs are so freaking cool and memorable.

After that the series changes setting and completely drops the ball because of it. The desert is so forgettable, the plot, which was absurd to begin with, got even more convoluted and ... harder to follow. The characters have no personality. It was an absolute chore to finish. alot of Genocybers shortcomings were forgiveable in the early episodes because of how fun it was to watch, but once that fun factor took a backseat, I stopped caring. It's short, so i still say watch the whole thing. I just wish the whole series was more consistent.

The character designs and art by Tony Takezaki absolutely shine here. Something about the way he draws is so appealing to look at. He's just someone who's style can be spotted from miles away. Absolutely an artist who doesn't get enough recognition.
