Hello Lion Tamers; I'm trying to like an anime again. But in this case, I just couldn't stomach it enough to watch past the 4th episode. I was forced to drop "The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo" because of the narration almost everybody thought was so cool. Feelings of characters, in an anime is tricky. But this particular anime was good enough that the viewer can figure this stuff out. Worse, the narration is not merely too much, it often says things that actually contrast with the feelings of the characters, perceived by this viewer. I suspect I am not the only one to say; "...silence the narrator please! ..."
Gags.
Not a lot of them, but the ones the show had, were the same as several others. Anybody recall '3x3-Eyes'? Not only the eyes, but the third eye defines power. In both shows, produced by different authors, animators, and actors.
I hate to sound like some of these other critical reviewers, but I have to agree with the following; the notion that a super-powered character with a red eye in his forehead, is an adversary of another super-powered character with a blue eye in his forehead; is just plain trite beyond all bounds of the notion of creativity.
With this notion, my eyes began to roll up into my forehead (where I hide MY 3rd eye, the one that detects popcorn to be consumed during movies; and you can imagine what my mortal enemy has in his forehead [nope it isn't braincells, it's jujubes]).
There you have it, my review of this potentially good anime, ruined by retread gags, and narrators that simply won't shut the heck up. Get mad if you want, I'm not even going to bother with a point-by-point scoreboard (which is admittedly, not one of my favorite tasks anyway), since I often freeform many of my reviews.
For the character development, and the artwork, subtracting some for the excellent but inappropriate music; I give this female MadMax with the blue eye in her forehead anime; a mighty big 7.
