I think I'm biased in that I'm a sucker for this era and style. Honestly, it was worth one watch through. They were all decent enough but it would have been better if we really got to actually know any of them at all.Įnjoyment - My previous lines probably make it sound like I hated it. I'll say also that even though the characters weren't fleshed out enough none of them were overly annoying either. The closest thing to any really development is the backstory of Mona and her Yappie tribe. It was never distractedly bad but neither did it elevate it or alleviate the other flaws of the movie.Ĭharacter - The main character gets almost no time, in fact pretty much no one does. Sound - The voice acting is fine, the music is catchy rarely but mostly pretty standard and not much stands out, the sound effects used were of it's time and that is to say very stock. It's very cutesy, gives me slight Ranma vibes from the main character. Easily the worst part of the movie.Īrt - I don't hate the style used here. What is there, isn't bad, but it's all very much been done a lot even in the time it was made most of it was nothing new.
The run time is only 47-ish minutes counting credits so that's not much time to tell the story of an entire other world. Story - Very simple in both a good and bad way, but I think a bit more fleshing out was in order. I liked the mere idea to see squads of hominoid armored dragons in action but without a strong background behind it, I can't help but being only remotely interested.

It's a bad sign.Īll in all, there are very few redeeming qualities to that title. If you ask me to whistle away one song I wouldn't be able to make it. The music, unfortunately, is like the rest: it's your token fantasy score thrown in for good measure. I'm not particularly compelling about animation in general, so I'd say it's pretty decent in my book.

Apart of that, main cast design looks dated like a mid-eighties OVA, it's hardly acceptable if you compare it for example with Silent Mobius movie released the same year. It was alike, albeit lifeless and uninspired. It was rushed with deus-ex machina devices along to make plot advance.Īrt wise, it feels like character-designer went to work after a streak of Hayao Miyazaki's Sherlock Holmes episodes (excuse me to channel his name in vain, but it was the first thing popping in my mind while digesting it). Overall, the story is too much generic to not be forgettable. We don't even get a final confrontation between him and the heroes! A special mention to Zolba whom reminds me a coolass Dragon Ball villain, too bad he simply suffers the generic evil conqueror syndrome. just lack too much screentime for viewers to relate, so fine, they're all cardboard cutouts to say the least. The supporting cast isn't particularly detestable or likable, they Was he useful ? After all, Taku and Mona simply put infinity anchor out-of-order without his help even if we're told he's the only one able to do it. This Magikoopa lookalike is so bland I question his legitimacy in the plotline after watching Capricorn. I found myself not caring at all for characters like Dr.
Besides, it's a chronic problem with this format. We're not even introduced to him beforehand, way to go for main cast characterization. As soon as the OVA begins, we're directly shown Taku warped to Slaffleaze world a la Escaflowne.
