Synopsis: Favorably compared to such acclaimed series as NEON GENESIS EVANGELION and RAHXEPHON, the anime FAFNER was a massive hit in its native Japan. On paradisiacal Tatsumiya Island, the youth believed that things would never change...until the vicious alien Festums decided to invade Earth.... Favorably compared to such acclaimed series as NEON GENESIS EVANGELION and RAHXEPHON, the anime FAFNER was a massive hit in its native Japan. On paradisiacal Tatsumiya Island, the youth believed that things would never change...until the vicious alien Festums decided to invade Earth. Tatsumiya Island quickly becomes a high-tech fortress under military rule, ending the carefree lifestyle that the inhabitants led. As many of them are drafted into the battle against the Festums, the weapon that will be used to battle the aliens is revealed: the Fafner, a giant battle robot that stands as mankind's final line of defense. Partially written by Japanese fantasy author Ubukata Tou, FAFNER has stood out from the crowd of science fiction/mecha anime series through its philosophical ruminations and psychologically complex, believable characters. VOLUME ONE: ARCADIAN PROJECT collects the first four episodes of the series. [More]

B+

An interesting storyline... and some hopefully soon-to-be fleshed out characters. And hey, when you mix that with giant robots, you’ve got a hit.
