Maru!~
Ok this is my first review, so I'm going to try to keep you entertained.
When I first looked at this show, my frist thought was "its going to be another lame mecha with a bad plot" and after the first couple of episodes, I still believed that. But that was soon changed.
While the show didn't turn amazing, it did pick itself up later in the show.
Story: 6
The main character is Kyouno Madoka, who teams up with a girl named Lan, to fight aliens that attack her hometown with their robots called Vox. Not a very exciting story, but for what they have to work
...
with...it is executed well.
Art: 8
The art is actually really nice, I like the character designs as well as the mecha designs. It varies greatly from the normal Gundam type designs, and has a flight mode for each robot.
Sound: 7
The voice actors were well picked, and the opening theme isn't bad, not much to say here.
Character: 8
As a main character, Madoka is a very good one. She is entertaining to watch and is one of those characters that make you laugh and break the tension in a bad situation. She is one of the characters that bring everyone together and easially cheer up people. She is also quite the airhead XD
As for the rest, Lan is a character you can't say much about, she is strong and independent, but I think needs Madoka to keep moving forward. Also, Muginamai is a really fun character. The characters are pretty well made.
Enjoyment: 7
The show is actually really enjoyable. It just creates a light and cheery mood with all the friendship and everything, and even some light yuri undertones XD
Overall: 7
This show is one of the prime examples of "do not judge a book by its cover". After you get over the first impressions and the first couple of episodes, it actually gets better. All and all the show is pretty good, can't wait for the end and season 2 in summer XD
