Things I loved in this anime:
- amazing and fantastic character designs, that remind me of the director’s previous work like GaoGaiGar and Brigadoon (the main girl looks a lot like the main one from Brigadoon lol. Also the mascot is so cute and funny I love him!)
- really impressive and creative use of CGI for 2008, and while I’m sure it makes some people say it looks weird now, this would’ve looked amazing back then! Look at how expressive the characters are and how they close their eyes when they bend down and jump etc. amazing for the time!!)
- entire main cast are all really likable, they basically spend the entire OVA just trying to find a place where all 4 of em can live safely together.)
Things I’m neutral on:
- this show has a handful of moments that seem targetted towards otaku (…

Hoshi no Umi no Amuri is a Studio Hibari original from 2008. We remember them for their work on the horrendous Kashimashi and the mediocre Venus Versus Virus. So, great sign there. Let's delve into it and hope for the best.
Story:
We open with a group of girls travelling through space when their shuttle is attacked and they find themselves floating in space. That is until they're dragged away by strange beings for nefarious purposes and have a super sentai style group sent to rescue them. Fortunately, they find floating capsules with special transformation suits that can draw out their powers.
Let's talk about the big issue with this anime. The narrative is kind of all over the place with a lot of plot points that get heavily rushed and others that don't make much sense or basically c…

Amuri in Star Ocean, huh. I stumbled across this one something like 2+ weeks ago. I'm going to do this review a little differently. This was most definitely a Mahou Shoujo (Magic Girl) title, very much geared to Shoujo-oriented audiences/fans/demographic and moe fans and as of writing this those Shoujo-specific genres are not mentioned at all on this page (but should be mentioned). This is in almost no means for male audiences, I'll give you my reasoning as we go on.
Format: What # I gave it (What # others may think it is at least)
Plot: 4 (5 or higher)
Let's face it this plot was either flimsy, or near non-existent. I will confess that I watched the first episode some probably 10+ days perhaps ago, but even with that much time passing I still remember enough of it to jump right back i…

My rating for this is 96/100
Never in my whole life have I been so blown away by a small yet utterly sublime and awesome little series. It's only a short little OVA consisting of 3 episodes, but it's so unknown and under appreciated! People may just blow it off as a yuri-moe show about girls kissing in space and stuff, but DO NOT be fooled by what you see! What you see in this show is a great storyline, a charming cast of characters, epic plot twists that appear in the 2nd episode, and not to mention animation that's COMPLETELY computer generated!
People may think it's all about moe and yuri, but what this show is REALLY about is that in the year of 019 of the new age, the sun began to radiate more heat which made people's chances of getting skin cancer a lot higher. Not only that, a new…

This has to be one of the longest anime I had ever had to wait for a completion ever, but none the less it did deliver. The story was a bit vague at best with very little explanation, but I must say the art and sound was pretty good hence the 9 overall rating. It has a very slow start in the first episode, but from the second on it was very entertaining. A rare gem to watch
