Lots of ecchi, sci-fi comedic fun from the studio and many of the creators behind Tenchi Muyo. If you like the aesthetic of the Tenchi OVAs, then your eyeballs will definitely take a liking to what they're seeing here. In fact, even the tone and story in many ways mirrors Tenchi, with Photon, being the unassuming hero that all the girls end up falling in love with due to his bravery and selflessness. You know the famous hot springs episode of Tenchi? Was it one of your favorites? Well you'll be rolling around in this series like a pig in shit, then. It's basically naughty Tenchi, but retains all of the laughs and ridiculous situations that made Tenchi such a likable and iconic series.
And those naughty bits are actually some of the funniest moments in the series. Photon's little wee-wee i…

Think Star wars, then imagine Luke Skywalker being a immensely strong but retarded kid who only cares about food, big boobs and keeping promises. Imagine Darth Vader as a pervert in striped underwear. The stormtroopers are cute and optimistic cheerleader blobs of lard. And Princess Leia actually looks good...
Then add a couple of other stuff, and you get Photon! A hilariously funny and still epic story set in some kind of fantasy future.
Animation
Decent. The animation is not the best, but the character designs are great! Nice background details.
Sound
Great music, some kind of 80's rock anthems which I like. Dope voice acting. Story
What seems like a down-to-earth story, albeit a science fiction one, at the beginning, soon turns out to be a great epic with several unexpected twists.…

This is by no man's a serious anime. So don't take it seriousley, but it is pretty damn funny. And it's one of the amy animes that was apart of my "Summer of Anime" back in 2006.... Sigh*...
Anyway, the story is about a little kid named Photon Earth. He has super strength, but is a kind soul, and he has women crawling all over him. Don't worry this isn't one of those guy with tons of girls animes, but it is still a little perverted, the amin villan is a creepy dude if I remember right. But its full of fun futureist like stuff, zany action and reidiculous situations that make you roll your eyes or wet your pants.
So I say give it a shot, its only six episodes so it shouldn't take long at all, just remember to not take it so seriousley or you WILL not enjoy it.
Take care everyone.

I first came across Photon when a close friend of mine wanted me to watch "The Ding Dong Song" Anime Music Video (a must watch). I was curious about what Anime was being used in it and come to find out it was Photon. After a lot of searching I finally found Photon and got to watch it. It is a very interesting and weird Anime. It is a must see Anime.

Photon Earth is the main protagonist, he is extremely strong and fights using a quarterstaff made of black crystal. Has the word "baka" scribbled across his forehead by Aun in black ink as he was trying to lead her back home. He's also able to withstand even the strongest blasts of Aho energy, even when it's focused directly on him.
Aun Freya is Photon's spoi…

Jeez, where can I begin? Photon is a lot of things. It's funny, it's cute, it's often times extremely perverted, and it's even pretty creepy here and there. The animes opening scene, for example, involves the beautiful Ms. Acqua running from the evil Papacharino while stripping off all of her cloths in order to ditch a tracking device. Not perverted enough for you? Well things get worse from there. To be honest, if it weren't for the perversion this might actually make for a great family series, but that's a whole other subject all together. The series is mostly about the young Photon Earth and his amazing abilities. You can easily compare Photon to somebody like Goku, but let me tell ya, Photon makes Goku look like a Harvard graduate. This combined with the horrible English dub I was stuc…
