What happened with Cecilia’s character development strategy is basically the same thing that happened with the social club president in Princess Lover!, except that Cecilia’s case is worse. Then I also checked whether there will be things like episode 2.5 in Blu-ray or DVD releases, and it seems that there will be no such thing either. I actually try to check whether I have screwed the episode numbering or something like that, thinking that the episode 3 is actually episode 4, but the result is in the negative. And this happened without any supporting intermediate events whatsoever. After her IS duel with the main male protagonist in episode 2, then in the very next episode (episode 3 to be exact), she suddenly become lovey-dovey with him. For example, that girl from Britain – Cecilia ‘Comic Relief’ Alcott. You cannot say the same thing about at least a couple of characters here though. The best character in this anime, which is the main male protagonist, has arguably the best natural character progression throughout the series. While the pacing is OK, storyline development is terrible with this anime’s propensity to skimp on events (like the main protagonist first IS training), or skipping them entirely (read more about this on character development commentary below).Ĭharacter development in this anime is weird and uneven.
Too much emphasis was put upon the harem aspect of this anime, unlike other mecha anime titles with harems like Dual! itself and Kurogane no Linebarrels (the harem in this title is pretty much understated). The fact that whoever wrote the story seems to intentionally refused to flesh out the storyline more doesn’t help either, withholding some of the promising potential I’ve glimpsed a couple of times throughout the series. With this anime's two main premises ripped off directly from Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure (which is an Evangelion rip off itself), the story in this anime is not only unoriginal, but pretty much predictable.

And of course, the school is full with girls… Therefore because of that, he was enrolled in a special school specializing in training IS pilots. Adding to their jealousy, apparently our main MALE protagonist can also pilot one of those things. Unfortunately for men across the planet, only women has the ability to use those shiny useful gadgets. In an alternative version of our futuristic world, the usage of mobile suit system called Infinite Stratos (abbreviated as IS from now on) is prevalent for many purposes.
It would be good for the main male protagonist if he does this ‘thinking’ thing more often, for his own sake. With the overdose of slice-of-life titles in Japan nowadays, a mecha anime title sure sounds like a breath of fresh air. As mentioned in the previous post, the audition for the first holder of this blog ‘Anime of the Year 2011’ starts today with the high-priority mecha anime titled Infinite Stratos.
