(L) Freezing the anime

[blitz1/2]

Clearly, I think it just goes to show that this studio wasn't prepared to tackle on such a high level project like Freezing.

[Dahak86]

Somehow, I have the feeling that the specials/OVAs will be much better than the series itself. (I hope, at least...)

pantsu and boobs are still good anyway.
Ganessa is now my fav. girl! love her "attitude". and her body. I demand more of her!

and really, that Chiffon-girl is like Xellos' female counterpart.

Or that a project like Freezing is marketable only a certain way. They hit all the points of the battle and even got background info on the school, Satellizer and Kazuya in that wasn't in the correlating manga section. I think they did a good job. Manga Pandora mode just doesn't provide enough fanservice and character sympathy that's all.

Spoiler for ep.2:

I'm quite happy that Ganessa got her comeuppance. The "dog that barks loudest" is so Ganessa.

The show doesn't need to be ALL about Fanservice. Or even if they go 5 seconds of nudity while transforming into the power suit would be adequate. I mean, they managed to use excellent CG work for the weapon materialisation and clothing repair, I don't think a battle suit would be that much work.

Or maybe this type of anime were better adapted by Bandai.

Humpf ... I really hope the will put :

Spoiler for Episode 2:

Pandora mode ... The real one ...
But i'm not sure they will use the Nova to fight them ...
In the manwha, we are like volume 7 and we don't really saw them ... Never saw Bridget fight one of them. XD

Well... this fight is actually pretty tame. Just shows you how much of a beast Satellizer is to prepare you for what's coming.

What's up with the animation? Let's hope the next episodes (or OVAs ) will be better

I liked the shiny bus

Also liked it. They should've handled the ending better, though

...and brutal, mindless violence. While I certainly don't mind the fanservice (as long as it's not lame Satelliser), the mindless violence does annoy me

Spoiler for pandora:

I do remember that glowing girl. So that was supposed to be that "Pandora mode"? Someone posted a screenshot from the manga, where they wore battle suits for Pandora mode.
Geez, this anime is getting more lame by the minute.

I doubt they could be worse

I hadn't noticed the evil smile on her shadow in the ED until this week. I though she was a genuinely nice girl
She's voiced by Inoue Marina so she should prove to be very entertaining.

[Ichijo]

Well, I'm okay with violence and fanservice if they are not pointless\there is a reason behind them and these scenes are done well.

[Jerseykid]

I enjoyed the second episode just as much.

I don't know what's wrong with fanservice. There is no line, you either get none, or it goes the other way and you get hentai. This is the only way we get any kind of tasteful sexuality in an anime. Unless you want to merge everything with school days, which btw i would be interested in seeing

[Tiberium Wolf]

In the age of widescreen I rage on the 4:3 format that is presented to us.

[Yui Is My Wife]

"Freezing" is ironically as hot as ever.

Genesa's REAL lucky that female "nudity" is easier to conceal the male equivalent, or her uber-sexy kneeling pose of defeat would have got this show slapped on with an R-18+ sticker!!

Oh and Mangatron old-man, better start investing in needles, threads and antiseptic cream for all the nasty cuts and gashes from your new lady love!!

And some Peptobismol for the serving of humble pie she just ate.

Spoiler for ep 2:

In the beginning did they say that freezing was deployed when Kazuya hugged Satellizer? Didn't quite understand that part. Glad Kazuya realized he was a idiot for thinking she was his sister.

President was funny when talking about Satellizer's past, also trying to get Kazuya to leave already.

So Satellizer has transferred because she kills too many people, i guess those people were the ones that touched her in the past. That brief flashback showed her crying, so she wasn't always that fierce.

So that wasn't the actual Pandora Mode, saw the suits, think that would have been better.

Was it Kazuya's blood that started up Satellizer's Pandora Mode, that's kind of weird, but i guess it's meant to show that they should work together.

So Kazuya picked a perfect roommate in Arthur, just his luck that he's Ganessa's limiter, now guessing Kazuya will become Satellizer's limiter.

Who was that evil looking chick at the end, looked like she had 4 limiters, i thought it was supposed to be a partnership. Guess she'll be seen in the next ep

[Tempest35]

Ep 2 is subbed now so...

Did I not mention this a few pages back? I had suspected that they had taken out the Pandora Battle suits when I saw Genessa pwred up in the previews from ep 1. Now the girls get to have their hair turn silver and their eyes go gold - who do they think they are - Selvaria Bles!? I dunno, I'm still mixed about how to recieve this - I guess how they handle the Miyabi story will be my final deciding point.

lol I too liked the shiny bus, very shiny indeed

I guess thats where there budget went to.

They ain't holding back with the fan service are they.

Lovely Bridget service at the end (^_^)b

Not sure what to make of the SSJ Pandora Mode yet, I don't recall them using them that much anyway so guess the change isn't that big a deal, altho I do prefer the suits.

[CrowKenobi]

Yeah, I had to laugh at the Super-Saiyan Pandora Mode...

I did read the manga up to chapter 36 and I do agree that the armor version looks better, but I guess that was a sacrifice for more fanservice (or cheaper easier to animate?)...

For some reason, the animation itself of episode 2 just didn't agree with me at all (probably because of the stupid 4:3 ratio and the obvious zoom-in)...

Errr? What anime are you expecting to watch? Freezing is about cheap fanservice + fun fights. Its a simple show with a simple aim.

I feel like you guys expect too much from this show.

No, it wasn't kazuya's blood but rather that Bridgette snapped upon seeing Kazuya injured that allowed her to transform.
