![]() ![]() FUNimation's approach to releasing it here in the States is actually kind of interesting since it's releasing a chunk at a time. Kawamori was paramount in the creation of shows such as Macross and Escaflowne so there's a certain pedigree for this series from the get-go.

I suppose it's true that you can get too much of a good thing because by the time we sat down for this series our appetites had certainly diminished. In the case of Aquarion the series simply doesn't do enough to separate itself from the rest of the pack. I mean, honestly, how many times do we need to watch aliens kicking humans around until a giant robot powered by a plucky hero saves the day? The scenario has been acted out way too much and unless a series does something unique it runs the risk of being redundant. Super robot shows are a dime a dozen and though most otaku out there have a place in their heart for the genre it's hard denying the fact that the market is saturated. ![]()
