*clearing throat sounds* Trigger is pretty shit, but this was pretty good.

Not quite sure why it's asking me to enter more characters to my flawless review, I guess I'll just add a few more here and here to boost the character count. If you've made it this far into my review I would like to take the time and wish you a good day and a good night. However even now I am still lacking characters which cannot be said for the show, they were pretty decent, not the best but I mean given Trigger's and Gainax's history they were pretty solid. Same goes for ... the story line, it was pretty typical Trigger with some weird story, but unlike with other shit anime like Kill la Kill, it was actually quite good.

First: If you're searching for Loli or anything else to feed your fantasies, this is not for you. Contrary to other reviews who claim this to be your typical loli-fest, it is not. What it is, is a group of little girls who act like little girls, not little tramps, they have childish ambitions of MARRYING the main character; not having sex with him.

The other reviews already sum up the story in detail so I'll just sum it up.

Fighters of all kinds (swords, guns, fists, ect) have a partner called a 'cursed child' these children vary in abilities just as the fighters do. Their duty ... is wipe out parasites, doing so grants them a higher ranking.

Typical anime stuff> Big parasite attacks a tower keeping them out, leading to an all out war against them.

Typical really strong antagonist>
Typical OP protagonist>

Worth a watch, but nothing to drool over or rant about.

I NEVER write reviews but after reading the other one I felt I should put a little input.

This OVA was overall just fun to watch; the whole time switch thing was iffy but opened room for randomness which had me laughing out loud a few times. Up until the half way point I was loving this, the way they were doing things was really working; I was thinking 10/10, but then things really went down hill and made you look back and think "was this really the whole plot?" and you look at it completely differently. The very end was quite strange and you wont ... see it coming from a mile away, it redeemed itself somewhat from the last minutes leading up to it but overall was not an ending I was hoping for, though the ending would have been superb if the conclusive ending was so stupid.


Overall 8/10, it was great starting out, ruined by a terrible plot, then partially redeemed with the final scene that should have been the plot the whole time.
