But I have to pass on both because I haven't seen their respective preceding series. So I'll be writing first impressions only on those who are receiving moderately high expectations, except those two.<br /><br />I agree. FMA Brotherhood is definitely at the top tier of Shounen anime out there. And its animation is also really well-done, as you said.<br /><br />I had high expectations with Captain Earth, but seeing the first episode, I just lost interest. I think I'll check out the other sci-fi titles like Knights of Sedonia.Arvin Saintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11875296044665788756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9060644602857566943.post-33794681701971093092014-04-07T00:17:18.763+08:002014-04-07T00:17:18.763+08:00I am glad to see you posting again!
Other than S...I am glad to see you posting again! <br /><br />Other than Space Dandy, which has been inconsistent but a lot of fun, I have not watched a series as it aired, but I think I want to try something this season. I am not sure what I want to watch yet, but been keeping up with what is coming and none of them seem like a "must-see" from the description, so I will be keeping up with your reaction posts to see if I can find something good.<br /><br />BONES can make some real top notch animation when they want to, too bad this is not one of their best. I really wish they would make something in the art style of FMA: Brotherhood. While not perfect, the animation is better than a lot anime today, and easily the best animation for a shounen I have seen (and probably the best shounen in general). The character designs were very unique, much like the manga. But I do hope they will never make anything like the horrible FMA: Sacred Star of Milos movie again. Anyway, sorry I went off on a tangent there.<br /><br />Since the premise did not grab me as incredibly interesting and you were not too impressed, I will be skipping Captain Earth. Great reaction/review of it by the way.<br /><br />-James<br /> James the Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165238905288033483noreply@blogger.com
