I didn't see this series till mid 2005. And in my opinion, I think it's good for it's own genre. The use of 2-D Animation & small use of CGI makes this anime visual for only 10 years old. That and the cool thing about it is it's was made by Sunrise Earth, which later did the notorious Cowboy Bebop series.<br/><br/>I read it wasn't well received on American TV media, but least it became a worthy classic to average anime fans alike. It's worth looking into if you like Fighting Robot/Fantasy/Heroine related Animes. This is the second best thing to ever grace the earth. It has nifty technology, great characters, a highly developed plot line … you name it it's got it.
My friends find it odd that I want to learn hindi. I mean, they expect me to be interested in learning language like French, Spanish, german, mandarin, but not this one. I say I want to be unique. Maybe the first phrase I want to speak in hindi is click here to play. Pretty interesting huh
