Well, I didn’t like it.It didn’t capture me.
I’m not male so I don’t enjoy misplaced nudity scenes.I don’t like it when the wiewer is served with this from the very begining , I think I’ll drop it.

[...] does not have gratuitous fanservice like Ultraviolet 044. Yes, I get pretty vindictive when I watch bad anime, and I actually become rather grouchy that I wasted my time on such [...]

Arr, TP, thanks for the little tidbits you gave about it. It’s a huge pity I have zero interest in this series. Similar to you, I hate gratuitous nudity unless very necessary for story plot (like a rape scene/savage shit), so ya. I could care less about whatever Wimmer. He simply provided a bummer.

Here’s a little trivia about Ultraviolet:

The director of the original film, Kurt Wimmer, wanted the film to be an expanded take on his previous film, Equilibrium. He wanted to bring out the concept of Gun Kata, a pseudo-martial arts, that was heavily referenced in Equilibrium. Unfortunately, gratuitous use of CGI coupled with gaping plot holes, left Ultraviolet so… radiated. [/pun]

I’m not a fan of gratuitous nudity when unnecessary, so consider me a non-viewer.

@Helen: I do, but I am not a good troll @_@. That said, I am just shocked at this series.

be more confident in your anime judgments, bud; you’ve had quite enough practice

@Coaxen: Well, I do not want to go into the modern vs old anime argument, because it is a very old and completely futile argument. Nonetheless, when anime is bad, it does not have to be modern or old school. Nuff said.

@Benne: I actually know about that atrocious attempt @ work. Oh well.

@LDC: agreed, my friend ^_^

@Coaxen: This show is indeed shitsuck, but to say most modern anime are so? I vote on you keep trying.

Not totally surprising, given that this was based off the American movie of the same name. That was a piece of shit as well.

I don’t remember when shit became art. Such productions ARE shit. Deal with it, most of modern anime are. It’s only that this one was just extraordinarily blatant about it.
