Finally! David and I, the founding members of The Anime Blog, have finally gotten together to record a podcast. The two of us have been watching anime together for over ten years and have both developed strong, differing opinions on the matter.
From now on, David is going to have his say in complete series reviews. Since we rarely agree on what makes anime good, bad or ugly, this will be a great opportunity for us to air our contrasting opinions. Aquarion, Boxset One, is The Anime Blog’s first ever Podcast Review and we hope all our readers will listen in what both David and I have to say about the first half of this series!
Podcast Plot Summary
12,000 years ago, Shadow Angels threatened humanity but were successfully opposed by one of their own, Apollonius aka, Solar Wing, and his human lover, Celiane. Now, in humanity’s future, the Shadow Angel menace has returned and is threatening the human race with total extinction. However, it is rumored that Apollonious and Celiane have also returned, reincarnated in mortal form.
A group called Deava has unearthed three combining mechs/ fighter jets called vectors. These vectors are piloted by gifted youngster known as Element Users. Only Element Users can pilot the vectors which can combine to form the powerful mech Aquarion, the only thing powerful enough to stop the Shadow Angels!
