More Seikirei, really? Yes. Really. More magic of how anime used to be…
Wait a minute,this was how anime used to be?
No, I’m not talking about fan service, moe coming out of the wazu, loli-running half naked on every screen. I’m talking about superpowers, water snakes, flying discs, using a sword to cut an entire battleship in half and all those sorts of things. Of course, powerful women in sometimes skimpy outfits fighting for what they believe.
Oh wait, Queen’s Blade has women fighting for their causes and yes I like Queen’s Blade. But Queen’s Blade takes service and goes to where no men (women) has gone before.
Matsu on the Punishment Team? Wow.
Looks like Paku (I like spelling it this way) will get more air time as well. Oohoo!
And, uh, a Kill-Bill/Bruce Lee outfit girl will be fighting Musubi.
Pure Engagement, so it’s women fighting in sexy outfits…Uh…you know, they used to have that in anime, too. So that’s…actually…OK?
BUT GETTING BACK TO MY POINT…Watching this promo simply gives me a sense of nostalgia. Ah…Women fighting, loving and superpowers.
So, let’s enter the Sekirei world again.
Used to be? Give me any single year, I can name an anime like this…..
@ digitalboy – well, I guess I’ve generalized too much. 😛
I was feeling overwhelmed by all the recent year’s anime developments. But hey, if you feel like, list a few of them for reference.
For convenience’s sake, only 1 per year.
2008 – Birdy the Mighty Decode (sequel in 09) (admittedly was a bad year for action shows)
2007 – Claymore
2006 – Black Lagoon
2005 – Futakoi Alternative
2004 – Mai-HiME
2003- Air Master
2002 – shit, i actually couldn’t find any ‘girls with insane power’ shows from this year. unless you count like Saikano.
2001 – Galaxy Angel
Any further than that and we’ll be in ‘used to be’ territory
