I've always loved the mechanical designs of Shoji Kawamori...aka famous for creating Macross and Escaflowne, as well as mechanical designs for other animes such as Gundam 0083, Ghost in the Shell, Patlabor, Cowboy Bebop, etc, etc, etc...

Just the name Shoji Kawamori already says enough for me to make Eureka 7 a good series, but a great series I've yet to say. Most of Kawamori's works are always of high quality anyway.

Ive seen the first 4 episodes and its really good. Like i said though the story is kinda childish in the way that they constantly talk about the stuff they skate on, like everyone in pokemon talk about pokemon. But its pretty badass if you can get past that part.

Thankfully he stuck to what he's extremely good at, mechanical designs, and not story... ><

Although I like his work, I enjoy Eureka Seven more due to its character designer...

I hope I find something that clicks with me on the 2nd episode...

The whole boarder aspect of the thing isn't exactly luring me... tongue.gif

I said the boarding part is the only thing that doesn't interest me...I don't have any qualms that it's a mecha title... tongue.gif

Same to me...although it takes awhile for me to get into anything anyway, so I usually enjoy seeing more episodes at once and having seen a lot of episodes means I can appreciate a series more. Most likely i'll see Eureka 7 all at once.

i'm not on ep 35 and i can say once u get into the anime ur hooked, the story line builds up around ep 10 then all of the adult themes come into play, this is by far not a childish anime like pokemon or digimon or yugioh......mon, so i would advise bare with it

I actually thought that it was gonna be somewhat childish because of it's theme involving surfing... tongue.gif I guess that's also what I find intersting about it, since surfing is something very unconventional for a mecha title (Something comparable to music and RahXephon)...

But as the episodes go on, you pick up on the adult themes, and the humor does grow from that...I didn't think much of the series in terms of any interest when I first saw it, but it's growing on me...It sure beats my initial impression...

Hook and bait

Whoa. I just saw the first episode of this show the other day. Very cool. I cant wait till the next episode.

Whoa. The same guy who designed the robots for Escaflowne did this? I KNEW IT! Cool. I was telling my brother that the robot reminded me of the Escaflowne robot and he was all like, "yeah, right!". I like how the robot tranforms, but imo, they shoulda shown the robot transforming slowly like the first time we see the mysterious Core Fighter in Gundam Wing get shot down and then tranforms into Wing Gundam - you know with some creepy music and the badguy characters going, "WTF?!?".

Hmm... Like Escaflowne? Having watched only the firts 9 episodes, I can attest to it not being like Escaflowne, although I still do love the character designs, same guy who did the ones for Overman King Gainer!

The robot has that boney look to it that the Escaflowne did.

Not a metal structural look that the gundams have, or the organic look that EVA's have.
