Tetsuwan Birdy [2008 remake by Kazuki Akane, Hiroshi Ohnogi etc]

[Yu Ominae]

Did the show (2008 one) made some species clear (e.g. name besides Birdy's, which is Altarian)? Thanks.

And I'm doing a fanfic on Skeletsu. I'll be a bit dark though.

Art was really bad, we spent almost 10 minutes of the paparazzi guy and Senkawa drunk sister, and the "oh no villain"

Spoiler:

Is a sad robot who literally hugs people to death because they look like its 'mother.'

Indeed - good for them!

Enjoyed episodes 5 and 6. Cool seeing Birdy's homeworld and some more background on her past. Fun series, one of the best this season.

Wow.....that sounds pretty bad. Your reaction now sounds perfectly reasonable.

The more I keep watching, the more I keep thinking that there's likely going to be a point where somewhere, something is going to jump up & down in the back of Tsutomu's head, where it will just later click: - I'm within the body of a hot lady.

Like take episode 5 for example...

Spoiler for Ep.5:

We get to the part where Birdy decides to do some undercover work as a hooker at that bar. Now, maybe it's just me, but if I were in Tsutomu's situation, I would probably be asking: Birdy, you're not going to go all the way through this, are you? I mean, your not going to... ...I mean I know we need the information and all, but there is another way to pump the information out of them? Birdy? .... Birdy? ....Birdy!

[Deathkillz]

Awww, besides the animation glitch, I didn't find ep 7 to be that bad.

Spoiler:

Can't say that I saw it coming with the robot thing when throughout the episode we were led to believe that Nakasugi was the culprit. But the cause of the killings were quite cheesy...but somewhat sad. Poor robot? The professor should have programmed her to realise her own strength.

And why did the bird boy show up in front of Nakasugi as a girl (?) That was a freaky scene.

Yay! more Arita Shion ~ de aridesuuuu ~

That was the highlight of the ep for me

I completely know where your coming from there. That scene in episode 5 almost screamed out for something. Last we hear from the guy is before they walk into the bar and then dead. Though I suppose somehow his comments might throw her off with a reminder before heading in that this was a serious mission. Now possible this conversation came up when the mission was planned out and we just got to miss how that went .

This is what i'm waiting for~

I just love her Shion voice for the previews.

[Sylphic]

The sad thing was Arita Shion was the highlight, wish she'd appear more often! She's fading out as an idol!

This episode was pretty good for me even if the bloggers hate it, it was just them basically following a false lead with hints of a conspiracy. Granted, it wasn't one of the more exciting episodes of the series, but still not too bad.

Here's the link for the source of the second seasons announcement.

[orion]

Way to go! Another season with Shion.

Edit: Somebody noted in the BayTSP thread that they got a C&D. So I guess it's no more subs pretty soon.

[Shouta]

Well, I guess I won't need to release ep 3 and do more if true. I guess it's back to manga and some other series I was thinking of doing.

[technomo12]

um what is with ep 7????? it is kinda strange !!!!!!!!!

[ApostleOfGod]

I guess I was too late on the news announcement...

But Yay!! 2nd season in January!!

[rimaa]

In case anyone missed it, The OP Single (Hearts Grow - Sora) looks like it'll be released on September 3rd

Awesome news on the second season. Back when it first started airing I was sad it was going to only be 13 episodes. I've been enjoying the show so it's great to hear that they got the go ahead to continue the story

[Freeter]

They'd better up the budget for next season, because the animation quality is seriously dipping.

And yes, Shion needs more screentime de arimasuuuuuu~
