In a future-based disaster-ridden city with an enormous gap between the rich and the poor, it is hard to tell which humans are walking around with cybernetic body parts. This makes Roy Revant's job as a renegade bounty hunter/bodyguard-for-hire even more difficult. When a young girl with unbeliveable strength rescues him from a particularly dangerous criminal, Roy realizes that perhaps help can be found in the strangest of places. Joining together with a few others, they engage in a battle to find out the truth behind the giant conglomerates that are supposedly serving mankind and making life better.
Solty, an android who has lost her memory, has escaped and is being hunted by the RUC Security Bureau. She encounters the bounty hunter Roy and he adopts her as his daughter after being hired as a bodygaurd for Miranda.

The series aired some 9 years ago, and writing this right now in early 2015, I guess it's safe for me to personally call this series the "Guilty Crown" of 2005/06. [STORY: 8/10] Just like GC, this was a wonderfully crafted original story. Looking around I see people giving this series up because the front few episodes were too boring or sub-standard. All I can say is that, they've missed out on the bigger picture altogether. Indeed, at the start it may seem as though the series was episodic, but trust me all that served as a build-up right till the finale. A suitable build-up too, ifI may add. All in all, I felt the story had a good flow to it and, on top of that, a really good ending (unlike certain series today).
[ART: 7/10]
Yes, yes... I know it's 2015 now. We're in the midst of the era of bishoujo appearing in every series we click on. But let's cut them some slack, shall we? For a series airing in 2005, the characters actually looked pretty decent. The action scenes were pretty well animated too. The thing about Original series is that the animation is usually consistent throughout the entire course, and that's what happened here.
[SOUND: 9/10]
Created in the period of time when Seiyuus (voice actors) were less celebrated than now, it was only natural that they fit the roles for the characters. Besides the cast, the background music and OST are magnificent. Nearly every scene had a BGM on it, and I'd have to say that each piece of music really fit the scenario, both in happy or sad times. I've already got the OST and it's pretty incredible, trust me.
[CHARACTER: 9/10]
This is where you'll have to watch through the entire series to understand. Through the 24 episodes, there is significant character development, especially to the two main characters (namely Solty and Roy). Of course, each character did have their own flaws, but they learnt from it through really heart-warming personal experiences. I pretty much liked every character in this series, but I kinda get annoyed when girls cry... and this series happen to have quite a few so... yeap but that aside, I was alright with everyone.
[ENJOYMENT: 10/10]
No qualms in this section from me. From start to finish, I've thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this. The comical scenes made me smile, the emotional scenes (nearly) made me tear up and the action scenes got me captivated. It may be just me, but I wasn't bored in any point of watching this series.
[OVERALL: 10/10]
So, why not? This is my favourite anime series by some margin, and though it sticks in my mind as a 9 or 9.5, I'll give them credit and overrate a little on my part to give a 10. I really hope you guys will check it out. Even though it's a series which aired a long time ago, I believe it deserves some form of recognition.
That's all from me, and thanks so much for your time! (:
Cheers.

Solty Rei is a decent show that could have done a lot better with what it had. I just hope my review doesn't stop people from watching this, because you might enjoy it. ^_^ In a world where the sky is filled with some kind of Aurora Shell , which holds the atmosphere together, has caused a devastating incident known as the Blast Fall. 12 years later this anime follows the story of an ex-cop now bounty hunter Roy Revant, who's been searching for his missing daughter since the Blast Fall. This basically sets out the story for the rest of this of this anime however it'smostly compiled of a bunch of adventures that make up a story. This was done well to begin with but then the story just gets out of control halfway into it. The main focus is on Roy's search for his missing daughter but it often loses focus and goes unto something completely different, especially during the latter half of the series.
The main thing I noticed about this anime was how much it borrowed of other animes or shows, which is the main reason why it didn't standout at all. Even the characters personalities felt boring and unoriginal especially Solty, who's voice got so incredibly annoying I just wanted mute it at times. I also felt that when it got to the sadder moments of the show the characters were really over dramatic, another little annoyance. But the main thing I didn't like was what happened to half the main characters, which I won't spoil for anyone.
The animation of this anime was decent nevertheless one noticeable thing was the CGI. There are animes that were able to implement it well (Ghost in the Shell: SAC and Trinity Blood) but this isn't one of them. The CGI just made things feel weaker than it already did and left little to be amazed by. Although, it was no where near as bad as the music. The opening and ending theme songs were alright but the soundtrack was terrible. What made it worse was that the music never blended well with the situation, it just felt like some "emo" kid wanted to put in his favourite track whenever he possibly could and that's what he got. XD
To summarize, even though this anime borrowed a lot of ideas, it could have used them better. The plot was good but the second storyline spoilt it, with all its random events occurring, which tried to tie it in with the first storyline. The ending was OK but it still was too crazy and left little to the imagination. I really did expect more this anime but maybe that was the problem, because my high expectations is what left me completely and utterly displeased with what I got.
I recommend this decent show it anyone who's open-minded but there are much better anime series out there to choose from.

I will start by saying that if you are not sure if to watch it or not, I recomend to try and watch it. It might be worth it :) Story: The story is a little hard to understand when the show starts (aside from the 'oh it's a homeless girl, why shoulden't we bring her home?'), and though that even as the show goes on it really dosen't get any clearer, at some point the REAL story would unfold, so hang in there :) Once you understand the whole story, it's kinda nice. Not the BEST story, but one that isen't really f#$$ed up like some animes. Art: Theart is OUTSTANDING. I think we need more animes with such art.
Sound:
Sound is cool. Can't think of a reason I shoulden't give it 9.
Character:
Some characters are somewhat lacking (story, background, and mostly development), but the characters themselves are avarage+.
Enjoyment:
I enjoyed this show alot. First because it was puzzeling and I wanted to know the story development (I like guessing what would happen next, and this show really puts up a challange here :P) and also because I REALLY liked that vibrating-hand-attack thingy. REALLY. Don't know why, just looks cool to me :P
Overall:
If you haven't ruled it out yet, take the first episode for a test run. Keep in mind that though it starts as a 'Take-the-homeless-girl-home-and-make-her-a-part-of-your-family' kind of story that we see alot in animes, it WILL change soon enough to something more like 'Kick-the-s@#t-out-of-them-super-humans'. Other than the somewhat stupid 'coincidence' that keeps on happening (If you want to understand what it means, just watch the show, because explaining it will be a spoiler), it's more than most of the animes out there.

Note To Self: This Has Spoilers. Please don't Read unless You've already watched this anime or you really want my attention to certain "spoils" on the anime. I Really enjoy watching Solty Rei cause it tells a tail of a robotic girl who was sent to Earth but at first for only for her sisters reasoning towards humans and their cultural. Her biggest sister is a huge ship that hates humans and demands to destroy mankind everywhere in her path. She reads data not emotions awhile Solty can read emotions but not data. This is better to put to you when you think about it,only live with emotions, data is suppose to be used for something more criminalized or adventures of some sort. I'm glad Solty beat her because if she destroys the planet, how are you going to watch the anime with the characters? You'll be blown when you watch the anime so I highly recommend watching it. Yes its mecha,comedy and drama. You can watch it in English,Japanese,and I think other languages as well.
The girl named Solty is completely robotic and is suppose to know how to have emotions. She hit her head as well, it even hurts for someone who isn't human at all. She saved humans everyday in the anime.Bullets won't affect her at all either. Miranda is her friend and a really close friend of Roy's Wife. The accident was devastating to bare all at once.
I have watched them but on Fumination and the scenes are great for watching. Its has great action towards the characters.
Solty loves protecting everyone. I'm really happy she knocks out every other bad person that tries to kill people. Solty has an amazing vibe, she'll even kill you if she sees someone get hurt because of what you did to that person. Her voice actress is Carrie Savage and I love her forever. You can see Solty voice from Carrie's favorite line of Solty "I hate bad people" over YouTube. Her voice blows you away.
Rose Anderson, her new sister and really good friend at heart used to be a thug but learned to live life to the fullest and Solty made her through it. Solty Influenced almost everyone to do their best and not fail once. Rose only steeled because she and her brothers didn't have enough money. They became wanted criminals and unregistered citizens.
I love the Art because I have never seen a girl with green curly hair and big light punches before that could punch a pole everywhere she went. By punch I mean,her punches are dramatic way of saying 'get out of my way', "I have protect everyone". Even her outfit changed from the beginning to the end of the anime. Shes great in every way possible. If you see a bad person in this world, pretend your Solty and of course of your punches are strong like hers.
The sound is great, especially the tune of the blues CD Solty's dad played for the whole family. Its on the soundtrack to.
Every character lived from life to death, half of the main characters are still living awhile the others have died. I wish not any character would die, its very burden to see someone die in a story.
Overall, plus my enjoyment is just down right flawless to watch. Don't let life bring you down ever. Life forever like Rose and Solty did. Don't forget to watch the anime and read the red lady Manga.

This is one of the greatest Anime that I've not seen on some new Animes now. Probably the characters style is not that too well fancy like other series, though for me it suits well and I dont care on that anymore. The story is very great, I'm totally hooked on the series, because each cast have their important roles on the story. The plot is great as well as the twist of the story, frankly I really thought that Solty is the missing daughter of Roy but sudden shock that its Rose. I totally understand their techie talk about the Aurora and the nanomachines andetc., unlike other science based Animes.
Emotion-wise its really great, because never thought of an anime that a cold bounty hunter like Roy could burst an emotion like that. I ended goosebumps and actually cried in the end of the series.Its been years since I cried on the end of an Anime series. Its totally great.
Though the music is a bit lacking, should've added some more, but "Return to Love" really suits the series though.
Really hoping for an OVA or a movie of this. Two thumbs up!

Roy Revant is living the hard life of a bounty hunter in a broken city, a city where thousands have died in a mysterious event called the Blast Fall. Those who survived share the sting of loss. Countless Resembles walk the streets, people whose mangled bodies have been rebuilt with high-tech prosthetic devices. Yet there are those that even science cannot mend. Roy needs a miracle to escape his rut... and one night she falls from the sky. Like countless others, Solty is a Resemble, but one unlike the world has ever known. A young girl without a past, soon she will have a family. Butin this world, pain and alienation are never too far away. (blurb from wiki)
My thoughts:
Solty Rei is the story of a broken man that lost his daughter in the Blast Fall 12 years ago. Not believing she’s dead, he searches for her to the detriment of not letting himself get close to anyone again. Enter Solty, an AI that has lost her memory and after saving Roy she stays with him. Her loss of memory gives her an opportunity to explore human emotions. She endears herself to everyone around her. Her relationships with the other characters are individual, not one is the same. I especially liked that this anime has an ending, and a happy one. It’s an anime worth watching.

I hear alot of people refer to this anime as "Wasted Potential"........I say that's true in one sense, but I'm pretty sure people are getting the wrong idea by that. I don't remember exactly how I heard about this anime, but after I read the premise, I was thoroughly intrigued. The one main thing that kept me at bay for a while was the poor art and animation...and, not gonna lie, throughout the show, it doesn't get much better either. Infact, I'd say the art and animation downright sucked in this show. But the thing that makes this show amazing deals with everything else. One way Iliked to refer to it as, is a JK Rowling level story, made with a Hentai's production value........I have no idea why THAT was the comparison that came to my mind at the time, but I decided to roll with it.
In short, the story was one of the best aspects of this show. It takes a while to get going, but once it did, It sucked me in right away. I'm not gonna lie that the pacing could get a little wonky, and it felt super choppy at points, but all In all I'd say it held up nicely. The climax was well handled, and I actually didn't see it coming. The ending took a pretty intense turn and got...pretty difficult to follow along with, not gonna lie. However, that's not the shows fault, that's me being kinda dumb with all that technical stuff. I was able to understand the gist of it, and I honestly found it all fascinating. Everything came full circle, and I believed it.
The next best aspect of the show is definitely the characters. All of them were really interesting, and I cared about them. Whenever the characters were going through something, I believed their struggle and I sympathised with them. When one of the characters would die, It actually made me legitimately upset. Like, I'm pretty sure I cried about 5 times during this show...not something that happens often. As well, alot of the characters were given really good development. While, there are some characters I would of liked to have been explored more, I was satisfied with what I got. I even empathized with the antagonist at the end. I was sure I'd royally despise him throughout the show, but I actually believed his struggle and felt sorry for him.
One of my main issues with the show deal with what I said at the start. The art and animation...are not that good. I know it's an older anime, but I've seen better looking shows from the 90s. Which makes me upset that a story as good as this was given such poor animation. It deserved so much more than what it was given. I honestly hope they decide to remake this show someday, cause it definitely deserves it.
The only other real issue I had with the show were some plot points seemed to be left out or overlooked. I can't really go into detail of what they are cause that'd be spoilers, but you'll know them when you see them.
But now here's the one question I always want to know when watching an anime..........was the ending satisfying?..........and yes, I can happily say that the ending was indeed satisfying. It was bittersweet, and left me with a smile on my face.
Overall, If I was to give this show a ranking for just enjoyment alone, I'd give it a 9/10. However, I realize the amount of issues it did have so I'm going to give it a final score of 8/10. This show is definitely a diamond in the rough, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

A True Emotional Roller Coaster… With that said, Solty Rei will make you laugh, cry, anger and frustrated throughout the whole series. This is one of the earliest anime I have watched. And until now, none of the recent anime challenge your emotions as hard as this one. It is one anime that none will forget. Story: A well rounded story. Unlike many anime that have a great start and a F***ed up ending, this is one of the few that kept it interesting till the end. Many twist made the audience go awed, but I hate to admit, extremely confusingin some part (that is later revealed). Near to perfectly executed.
Art: Magnificently drawn.
If you want to compare it to the recent action/Mecha anime, of course there are better. However, if you compare that kind of graphic in the year 2005 with other anime at that time, I would say it is reasonably presented. I personally like this kind of drawing.
Character: A little too wide of variety
If I must say a downside to this anime, it would be too many vital characters. When I first watch this, there are seriously a lot of characters and you would get attached easily to each of them. Heed my warning though as this can make you suffer halfway through…
Enjoyment: Like I say… A Hell of a ride…
Overall, I enjoy this. I mean it would be hard to find another anime that can cause as many emotions as this one. Some may say it would be too tear jerking… I say it would be great…
Moral of the Story: Extremely great.
In every anime, there should be a moral lesson for the viewers. As for this one, it is all about FAMILY. Parents should even let the younger one to watch this. Cause I find it is hard to find anime with Moral lesson nowadays.
Overall: Very good. And I must say I would be happier if anyone could find a recent anime that is as good as this…

Overview: Unless you're a serious follower of sci-fi anime or Gonzo (the latter being pretty unlikely, given their rather poor reputation in the anime community), it is highly doubtful that the words "Solty Rei", referring to an extremely obscure anime from the mid-2000s, ring even the faintest of bells. I myself only came across the anime by accident via a now-taken down video from Youtube, and ultimately decided to check it out because it seemed interesting. While I can't say I regret watching it, I wouldn't put it particularly high on my rewatch list, as it doesn't really stand out in any meaningful way. Story (7/10): Set inthe distant future, twelve years after the planet was ravaged by a mysterious disaster, "Solty Rei" follows Roy Revant, a gruff middle-aged bounty hunter with a troubled past who spends his days hunting down various dangerous cyborgs called Resembles. One day, while on what initially seems like any other job for him, he encounters a mysterious girl covered by nothing but a battered cloth. Soon after, he learns three things about her in quick succession- she has very unusual-looking ears, she has strength well beyond that of any human, cyborg or otherwise, and she has no idea who she is. After saving Roy's life twice (once indirectly and once directly), the girl becomes acquainted with Roy's associates, including his employer Miranda Maverick and her daughter Kasha, and ultimately gets taken in by Roy as his adopted daughter, with Roy giving her the name "Solty". The series then follows both Solty gradually adjusting to daily human life and Roy's exploits as a bounty hunter and along the way they encounter Rose Anderson, a dashing Robin Hood-esque thief with more to her than meets the eye, and come in to conflict with the Reestablishment Universal Committee (R.U.C.), a government agency that manages day-to-day activities in the city and whose leader has some sinister plans for the world.
If this premise sounds interesting, then that's because it is. Unfortunately, the plot is greatly hindered by an extremely slow-paced beginning, with the series spending way too long stuck in an episodic format, during which it introduces a whole bunch of various topics that in most cases have nothing to do with the story at best and don't go anywhere at worst. While there are a couple of episodes that expand on the characters' backstories and provide some decent world-building, these are ultimately irrelevant in the grand scheme of things and are conveniently forgotten about once resolved. Even when the first big twist comes mid-season, it takes a few more episodes for the plot to really get going, and while things do improve dramatically afterwards, it further serves to highlight that the first half of the series was mostly just a waste of time.
In spite of all that's been said, I found myself enjoying the story quite a bit, in no small part thanks to its theme of family. When we first meet Roy, he's a bitter, lonely man desperately searching for the daughter he lost as a result of the Blast Fall, the aforementioned disaster that ravaged the planet twelve years before the story began, even though he doesn't even know for sure she's still alive. Overtime, however, due to adopting and raising Solty among other things, he gradually learns to appreciate those he has in the present instead of chasing after the ghosts of his past. While this theme is mostly in the background in the beginning, it's brought to the forefront in the second half, to the point that it serves to contrast Roy and the main villain. This results in the later episodes not only being epic, but highly touching as well, all the way up to a great ending, though this just made me wish that the rest of the series was as good.
Art & Animation (7.5/10):
As one would probably expect from Gonzo, "Solty Rei" is not a particularly good-looking series. While the character designs are decent, the colours and textures are very dull and bland and there are plenty of rough edges to be found. Also like in a lot of Gonzo anime, there's a lot of very obvious 3-D effects, namely with the robots of the series, which look so out of place in comparison to everything else that even I had trouble tolerating them, since I'm usually quite lenient when it comes to that kind of stuff.
Sound & Dialogue (8.5/10):
The soundtrack is alright, but there aren't all that many memorable tracks. Of the ones I remember, there's the opening "clover", the two ending themes "Float -Beyond the Sky" and "Return to Love" and one track that plays during particularly somber moments, the latter of which is probably my favourite. Instead, the best part of this category, and indeed the best part of the whole series, is the voice acting. The dub features a number of great talents, including Christopher Sabat and Colleen Clinkenbeard as Roy and Rose, respectively. Carrie Savage also does just as good a job as Solty, capturing the character's kind, cheerful nature perfectly and just making me love her all the more. The dialogue can be somewhat corny here and there, but never to the point of making you want to facepalm.
Characters (7/10):
When we first meet Roy, he's best described as gruff, bitter and apathetic. While he's kind enough to allow a girl to stay the night in exchange for saving him, which is how he and Solty first met, he means just the night and expects her to fend for herself afterwards, even refusing to take her in after it's revealed that the alternative is her getting taken away to a secure facility, though he is convinced to do so in the end. His overall demeanour is very similar to that of Rick Deckard from "Blade Runner", which is ironic since he shares his first name with Deckard's arch-rival Roy Batty. Unfortunately, this works just as much against him as it does for him, especially since Deckard is known to not be the most likable of protagonists. Overall, he starts off pretty bad, then gets worse (though not without good reason) before finally getting a hell of a lot better, so overall he has a pretty decent character arc. That said, he definitely isn't the most complex of protagonists and as far as Christopher Sabat roles go, he isn't really anything I haven't seen before.
Ultimately, the title of "best character" goes not to Roy, but Solty herself. When we first meet her, she has absolutely no idea who she is or where she came from, though we soon learn that she's a robot girl, or Genuine Resemble as she's called, with her true identity being gradually revealed over the course of the series. Despite her lack of memories, she's ultimately a very kind and cheerful girl who quickly grows fond of those who have become her new family- not just Roy, but the aforementioned Miranda and Kasha too, who spend just as much time looking after her as the former. She also has a very strong moral compass, as shown by her repeated refusal to get involved in Rose's criminal life among other things, and gets some really awesome moments to shine in the second half of the series, to the point that it could be argued that she's the real main character. However, much like Roy, she's not a particularly complex character, though she's definitely a lot more likable than Roy is.
The last of the main trio is Rose Anderson, also known by her thief name, the "Blue Comet", who works with her brothers Larry and Andy as a thieving trio, stealing various valuables to give to people in the slums. While this gives them a definite Robin Hood vibe, the fact that they're thieves really isn't glossed over in the series, since it means her relationship with Roy, a cop in all but name, starts off highly antagonistic and Solty repeatedly refuses to get involved in her work despite her persistence. Eventually, though, she relents, with she and Solty developing a sweet sisterly relationship, and she warms up considerably to Roy as well. Unfortunately, in the second half of series, she's given a character arc that's pretty nebulously told, and not in a good way, though thankfully that gets resolved right before the climax. The supporting cast is decent, but unfortunately they aren't given an awful lot to do outside a few specific moments. And the less said about Ashley Lynx, the enigmatic CEO of the R.U.C., the better, as just about anything genuine about him is a major spoiler, though I can at least say that he proves to be a genuinely menacing and surprisingly sympathetic antagonist, as well as a great foil to Roy.
Enjoyment (7/10):
As a result of the very slow-paced beginning, "Solty Rei" is an anime that definitely requires a lot of patience to sit through, as while there are some good episodes in the first half, most of them are ultimately rather forgettable, so a lot of you may end up giving up on the series before things start to get interesting. In addition, while things do get a lot more exciting in the second half, it comes at the cost of the story veering into some very dark places, particularly in regards to the revelation of the world of the series as well as the true nature of the Blast Fall, though thankfully the series does manage to end on a happy note.
Overall:
It gives me absolutely zero pleasure to say that "Solty Rei" fails to leave any real lasting impression, thanks to the dated visuals, likeable but fairly underdeveloped characters and a story that, while decent, takes far too long to really get going. The only thing it really has going for it is its theme of family, something it doesn't explore to its fullest until the last few episodes. It's not a terrible anime by any means, and I did enjoy watching it, but there's still no denying that it could have been so much more than it is.
Score:
7+7.5+8.5+7+7=37/50=7.4/10

This is a great anime. It's got futuristic elements mixed with ones of 1930s to 1950s. The characters are great! You got Solty, the girl with incredible strength. There's Roy, whose a tough badass bounty hunter. And Rose, a awesome yet atractive thief or as she calls herself the Bright Blue Meteor of Hope. There are other characters I like as well such as the technology expert who has a crush on Solty, the lovly head of the bounty hunter business and her tough little daugether, and of course the main villian of the whole story. What's also great about this anime is that it also hassome comedy elements to it as well. Which balances the whole story.
So in conculsion, if your a science fiction fan who also likes a lot of humor, than this anime is the one for you to watch.

Solty Rei ソ ル テ ィ レ イ Reading the description again after watching it, I really have to admit that it looks quite interesting compared to the actual content. I liked the basic idea of this Show. The story revolves around the protagonist Roy Revant, who lost his daughter in the "Blast case", a catastrophe that caused enormous damage to the city. After this, he could not find his daughter again and fell into direct despair, lost his old self, and became a bounty hunter who hunts criminals. But he didn't just do this for money, but also to let off steam. Since he was finished withhis life, there was not much left in him. But then he met the protagonist, "Solty" as she was called (probably one of the most annoying female characters in fiction).
As far as you can see from the description, it doesn't sound too bad, in fact almost inviting. Also, based on the genre, you might think it's going to be a more serious and gritty plot.
-
If only that had really been the case. The story revolves around Roy in the foreground and all other characters get enough screen time depending on their priority. Roy simply cannot assert himself in this work. Everyone rides around on his head all the time, destroys his everyday life and he has no assertiveness. Then comedy often simply takes over, although the genre shouldn't be present here. Anyway, the work was also blessed with plenty of "fan service" and shower scenes that totally jump out of the overall picture.
Until episode 14 the anime is total everyday life, practically absolutely nothing happens. Every day a new experience, the characters are introduced and introduced. There was a slight tension curve with twists in the middle part, but until Ep 20 it was quiet again and nothing happened until a rather monotonous finale occurred.
Well, in the end at least everything was cleared up, which made the plot more likable. Yes, it was actually a decent statement that resolved all questions and actually opened up a big picture of the world. But apart from that, it was actually pretty average. Most of the female characters' dialogues, in particular, were practically a waste of time. Rose and Solty were practically never able to express themselves and their ways were quite annoying, especially Rose, who was really compulsively focused.
Well, otherwise the work had a few clichés, but nothing earth-shattering.
Story:
For me personally, the plot was probably the best part of the work. Sad that I actually had to wait so long for it. Most of the Show was more about her everyday life and a few small jobs, nothing more. Towards the middle, something surprising finally happened, which quickly lost tension and dragged on again until the final. The finale was also pretty weak, mainly action and a few scenes that didn't make any sense. In the sense that they didn't have to be at all, they weren't essential in any way and just ate uptime.
But otherwise, I liked the clarification at the end about the city, the characters, and the disaster. What was really behind everything and what connection everything had with everything? At least this has rekindled my curiosity. It's just a shame that the whole thing was only spat out at the end, which meant that you had to fight your way through the other episodes.
Unfortunately, the tension in this work was quite sluggish.
Animation / Pictures:
The animations were nothing special either. The style is ok, but alternative animations for machines and cars of all kinds were used again, which just jumps out of the overall picture. The animations of the surroundings, movements, and lights, were satisfactory
Conclusion
Is an interesting older title, unless you are hoping for too much. I don't regret looking at him. Despite everything, he had some strengths and some interesting scenes. Unfortunately not enough to ever be viewed again.
