Neo Ranga As I stated on my anime list, it is pretty much a real Masterpiece Animation is very well done, classical in its feel, though in some eps different team was clearly in charge of the production, with a lesser quality but that did not affect the flow of the series, and they did no more than 4 eps. The plot idea may not be really original, as the use of science fiction elements and misticism is not really new in anime production, but we need to consider that Neo Ranga is nt really new, beingf one of those productions that used really well the concept. The plothas many interesting points and turns, and the action is fair without transforming it into one of those boooooring fighting animes so in fashion (sadly).

The plot is carried well and without filler episodes, being a constant evolution to the final episodes.

Some elements, as Minami and Haseoka, were not completely explored in the end, but then again perfection is had to achieve.

The end was well done and does close the story, and yet leaves it open for a real sequel, as it did laid a very interesting ideas and plot points that could produce a really interesting sequel.

Some o the plot ideas echoes animes like Demon Lord Dante, which has a really interesting plot regarding ancient powers fighting in Earth's past and mixing/victimizing humans in the process.

I really liked Neo Ranga's concept, which can even be moved into full science fiction category if seen into the perspectivew that the Kyoshinkai were classified as machines by the Tao's emissaries. Tao itself being an egotistical, tyrannical entity evolved elsewhere and wishing to control everything oposing it.

All in all, great show, very good anmation, very well developed plot and a really entertaining show to watch.

I highly recomend it!

I reasn I give it an overall 9 because the animation team was not the same through the whole series, and some characters could have been better developed. Minor over the whole of the series but yet could have been a full 10 easily.
