Coming up in the light novel archives: Sunday Without God volume 7. Coming in the manga archives: Tetsugaku Letra. Wow.Īnd Apollo and Amata actually a dog’s reincarnation? Nice!Īnd that was Aquarion EVOL. Kagura and Zessica appeared together on volume 2’s cover, and I just thought that “hey, these two should get together, their chemistry would be perfect” and at the end of the manga, they kind of did. This happened a few times and instead of being some kind of intense love-hate scene I was laughing so hard. The funniest thing was that Kagura kept telling Mikono that she stinks and then proceeds to lick her. (Also, in the text they always write it as ZEXY, all caps, no kidding.) Look, isn’t that Mikono, your arch nemesis? Go kill her, Zexy!” And I was legit laughing. …WTF is with Mykage calling male Zessica ‘Zexy’? Like, WTF? Really? Is that like… supposed to be ironic or some shit? After Zessica turns into a male after arriving in Altair, Mykage dresses her in male clothes and start telling the heartbroken Zessica: “Alright Zexy, you gotta do this and that. If you like mecha and stupid mythical cringy lovey stuff, do give it a read.Īnd here comes the rant section. Unlike usual manga adaptations of animes, this manga is really well-done and can stand on its own, in my opinion. It would’ve been cool if that actually happened and they managed to stop it. Also, his vision of Mikono marrying Kagura just got threw out somewhere. The only thing still on my mind is Cayenne’s vision of Jin being the one-eyed demon robot, which I don’t get the significance. The manga left a bunch of unanswered questions and the last volume was rushed, but overall the story was focused with limited to no filler fanservice, and it managed to wrap everything up quite well. The best thing that happened to this manga is Jin and Yunoha. At one point I got so sick of Mikono and Amata that I started rooting for the villain to win. Zessica is actually more relateable…until they threw the mind control stunt in. Kagura is just… there because we need a villain. Mikono and Amata are the classic shounen anime couple and it’s so darn annoying to read.

Bottom line, everybody looks really good and the backgrounds look really cool.īut no matter how good the characters look, I did not seem to care too much about most of them.

The robots also looked really great and didn’t stick out like a sore thumb. There were some issues with the double pages but that’s with the publisher not the author. First, the art was really great and the characters were all pleasant to look at. And Yoko Kanno did the music for the anime, so however shit the story may be I will forgive it.īut this manga wasn’t bad at all. This is a list of episodes of the Genesis of Aquarion anime series, produced by studio Satelight and directed by Shoji Kawamori with music compositions by Yoko Kanno. And also, I grew up with the cringefest that was Saint Seiya, so yeah I’m used to these mythical wtf stuff. Two, in the first volume’s extra pages, the director even said that it’s over the top, and so it’s not intended to be taken that seriously. One, according to the director himself, it’s intended for kids. There are a few factors that should be taken into consideration before starting to rant, and these are why I cut EVOL some slack. The first two volumes were cringy AF but it got a lot better after Yunoha and Jin’s arc. The characters have all reincarnated and there’s a lot of weird stuff going on.

So when the manga version of the sequel I never bothered to watch went on wholesale I bought it just for nostalgia’s sake.ĮVOL takes place 12,000 years after the original Aquarion.

I watched the original Aquarion when I was like… younger than ten, and all I remembered was that the music was so good and the signature phrase: “GO AQUARION!”. After his best friend is taken by the Shadow Angels, Apollo chooses to become an Aquarion pilot.12,000 years later the fusion scenes are still as suggestive as ever. Thus, the search for so-called 'Element Users' was prioritised, hoping to ensure humanity's future.Sousei no Aquarion follows the story of Apollo, a near-feral young man brought up in poverty, who is believed to be a legendary hero reincarnated.
#AQUARION ANIME FULL#
In order for the Aquarion to be brought to full power, three pilots must combine their hearts, bodies, and souls into one-a feat few can hope to accomplish. To give humanity somewhat of a chance, an organization known as DEAVA was formed, and use of a robotic weapon named Aquarion has been authorized. But 11 years after a catastrophe dubbed the Holy Genesis brought ruin to the Earth, the Shadow Angels were stirred from their slumber and resumed the attacks once more. Thanks to some outrageous miracle, the Shadow Angels went dormant, and humanity was able to live another 12,000 years without fearing their presence. Once upon a time, a race known as the Shadow Angels attacked Earth to harvest the life force of all those who inhabited the planet.
