Saw the first ep. at Otakon. Eh, it was okay, I suppose, but I can't say I'm going to go out and buy the first DVD . I don't think the whole 'battle doll' thing works for me.
I just swipped the new(est) issue of NewType US, and just got done watching the DVD with the first episode of Angelic Layer. I liked what I saw.
It has off-the-frigging-wall humor, appeal, a story that looks like it could develop nicely, and some cool character art.
Anyone see this that would like to comment?

I think it was trying and failing to recapture the magic of CCS. I've seen the first six eps and it just seemed kind of dull to me. The main character was too meek and there just wasn't enough happening. I'll wait for the anime sequel to CCS (it's just a manga now, but I'm sure it'll get animated).

There's a lot of filler, especially compared to the manga, and the ending is different from the manga, and you have to see the second movie to get the 'true' ending, but it's all worth it. Heck, it's worth seeing the second movie for Tomoyo's 'evil bitch laugh' alone.Originally Posted by Captain Vegetable
