Where to start. This was one of the worst animes I think I've sat through. Angel Links is vaguely in the Outlaw Star universe with this 13 episode series. First off--and not to downgrade O.S.--but why would they make a spin-off of a series that'd already been cancelled. The voice-acting was pretty rough, the written dialogue was mechanical with terrible pacing, and it seemed like many things were lost in translation. This is to Outlaw Star fans: Keep your blissful ignorance of this series, it doesn't expand O.S., it just has a couple of brief cameos from side-characters from that series and a few references and terminologies when dealing with tech and planets and junk. Came off as the worst parts of Sailor Moon, with its long transformation and lift-off sequences that are just recycled each episode. And on that point, it was a bit too...it was annoyingly girly (preteen girly) at times. Just bad. Really disappointed me.

As with Witchblade, I thought it got much better towards the end.

Gantz is about people who died who were evil or simply didn't do the right thing in key moments of their lives and who return with advanced weapons and are forced to fight aliens under penalty of being dead again. At least, that's what I gathered from the first episode.

That was the sequel. The original and prequel came first, IIRC. Heh. Came.

I only liked Tenchi Universe, wasn't a fan of the other versions.
