Ballistic heartbreak Group: Advanced Members Posts: 16,831 Member No.: 1,034 Joined: Nov 22nd 2003 Location: Richards Majestic, apartment 51 | Eureka Seven is probably the only series I'm consistantly following right now, due to the convenience that I can just tune into adult Swim every Saturday night to watch it... I'm really starting to like it even better as the episodes go on... As for the LFOs, I'm pretty sure they're mechanical/biological...According to Wikipedia:
Looks like the LFOs are something of comparison to the EVA series in NGE... I was wondering that same question last night when episode 20 aired; Some of the KLFs Renton attacked (Through things such as impalement) actually started to gush blood from their wounds (Instead of just blowing up, as when they're severed in two)... | ||

These things ARE skeletons. Just like i thought they were. How nasty, and yet cool at the same time. Isnt the Guymelef in Escaflowne also a skeleton of a dragon incorporated with magic and technology? This post has been edited by WRX DEMON on Sep 10 2006, 06:46 PM |

So far I haven't seen any blood yet, then again I am only on Episode 9. | |

Renton ends up piloting the Nirvash Type O and uses this thing his grandfather gave him for the Nirvash, eventually the Nirvash does some crash attack that destroys its enemies and makes a crater of salt where land used to be. |

Holy crap, that show was amazing compared to anything that had come out recently/at the time it was released. Managed to light a small fire in the darkness of my chest cavity. Ending could have been done better, but for what the show was, it was great. Definately something I would watch again given the time. I know the show starts out kind of slow, but there almost isn't a single episode that has plot/character development in it, and the pacing made it a good show. |

The closure was good, but SSJ4 Nirvash, carving the moon, just a bit cheesy, but thats can be expected in a show about surfboarding mecha. For the happy factor, that did the trick. The last scene at the end with Axel closed up pretty well, but I would have liked to see more of the Gekko-go crew afterwards. | ||

Ballistic heartbreak Group: Advanced Members Posts: 16,831 Member No.: 1,034 Joined: Nov 22nd 2003 Location: Richards Majestic, apartment 51 | I suppose the whole thing over the Nirvash spec3 could be loaded with cheese, but I think things like that have more to do with the antagonist turning into the uber-hero more than anything...Compare Renton to how (Off the top of my head) Shinji from Eva or Ayato from RahXephon all "saved" the world, and you can see there's a bit of cookie-cutting going on... Overall, I thought the series was worth the wait and watch (Especially the wait, since it's airtime on AS gave me something to live for this past year and some; Now what am I gonna do now it's over? )...It was pretty diverse, covering a lot of genre areas such as action, drama, romance, and comedy all in one...There was plenty of time to delve into plot and character development and still be able to bring things to a close as well... That being said, I think the Eureka Seven universe can still be good for a few more kicks...There are still a lot of unanswered questions and uncharted backstories that could be made into OVAs (Off the top of my head, things such as the story behind Anemone/theEnd and the First Summer of Love)...And if it's possible (Without writing the story into wall), continue with a small eplilogue series of a sort... Either way, it sure wasn't at all what I had first expected it to be... |

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 118 Member No.: 3,395 Joined: Sep 27th 2004 Location: Update Profile | Well, AS kinda messed up the ending. They cut out an opening monologue and the 1 year later ending and placed it with the cut opening and ending. There's a few more minutes than what you saw on AS. |

Ballistic heartbreak Group: Advanced Members Posts: 16,831 Member No.: 1,034 Joined: Nov 22nd 2003 Location: Richards Majestic, apartment 51 | Yeah, I knew there was a short "epilogue" ending, so I kind of went into a "WTF" mode when AS ran the normal credits...Had to find a website that hosted the episode for online streaming, and although it wasn't fansubbed, I still got around to seeing it... They also apparently cut out Eureka's opening monologue too... I don't know why they did it, though...Some of the other titles AS airs, if they have alternative scenes in place of the normal credits, they air them (Like the last episode of GitS:SAC 2nd GIG or Cowboy Bebop)... |

What exactly did Renton's father do? Did he invent the LFO's? And is Moonlight State a terrorist group, why are the government military after them? Thanks. |
