After watching episode 1, i think it's safe to say it's worth watching.

The animation quality is good. There isn't any flaws that i can see at the moment though i m watching this on the less desirable format (unfortunately, it's removed now by the user).

Music is as good as you can expect from Kenji Kawai and fits very well. While i was disappointed with the OP and ED, the BGM made it for it. From the idyllic scene to the fast pace action, the BGM carries the mood very smoothly and doesn't feel out of place.

Spoiler for episode 1:

Barsa just ooze Motoko Kusanagi. She's 30 year old, compose, practical and straight to the point.

Spoiler for episode 1: ok, my japanese is actually pretty poor so i could only pick part of the story. Episode 1 is pretty much what you seen in the earlier trailer. 2 mins in, and you got into the bridge incident that was featured in the trailer already. After saving the prince, Barsa was invited to the palace as an reward (not before some scuffles with the royal guards that came looking for her). There, the princess/empress asked her to take the prince away and protect him as she suspect there's some plot in the palace to take her son's life cause of her son's fate as the bearer of the spirit. (Lots of convo here, so i can't make out much of it). Anyway, Barsa reluctantly agreed and the two of em quickly escape from the palace while they fire part of the palace to cover their escape. Anyway, that's the gist of episode 1. I apologized if it makes little sense since my jap is self taught and the last bit of convo between Barsa and the Princess is hard to understand. Barsa just ooze Motoko Kusanagi. She's 30 year old, compose, practical and straight to the point. __________________ Last edited by Jazzrat; 2007-03-28 at 15:16.
