  • who hates eclairs dub voice?

    I just finally seen a dubbed episode and was appalled by the voice actor for eclair. in the japanese version eclair had a very nice female voice and yet in the dub, the voice almost sounds male.

    Another anime to add to my fav's collection! hide « show »

    Ok, I have only seen two trailers for Kiddy Grade, but it looked pretty cool. lol, I havent even seen any episodes! lol, It looked pretty awesome with the action and how the girls kick ass, lol, and how they have powers. The trailers that i seen looked good how it showed each partners and bits of fights. lol, how the people were drawn were good and I might start watching it if I have the time... another anime to add to my fav's collection! Mainly, i love anime with a good storyline, and Kiddy Grade seemed like it has a good one! x :)

    A show with potential, and that's saying something. hide « show »

    Many anime series aimed for children, even older children, are slight at best. Sad to say, but the reality is that they are deliberately made to have little in the way of story and coherence.

    Not this one. I liked the depth of the story and the way the young characters reacted to their problems with intelligence and courage. There wasn't any squealing or playing tag. It was exciting and reminded me a little bit of "G Force." It's one thing to write a show that has kids in it. Quite another, to actually give them something to do. Yes, it's another spaceship saga, but at least the dialogue won't give you cavities.

    A forgotten past, unbelievable strength, and a partner who won't give up on you. This is Kiddy Grade. hide « show »

    This show is unbelievable! The characters are a bit hard to grasp in the beginning but once you have a hold on them you will not want to let them go! Éclair and Lumiere are two of the hottest women in the galaxy in my opinion anyways. Beyond their looks the two poses unbelievable abilities with an intellect to match. This is good since throughout this first season these two have to face staggering odds, both, to fulfill their missions and to stay alive later. It is shown that the two cannot live without the other, in a manner of speaking; they have a friendship that has crossed into a sisterly love that only they share for each other. I am a big ending fan, the ending has to wrap the story up well, show me that the characters truly cared for each other, and lastly show me that these characters will continue to live on even if it is only in my imagination. So overall this is a very well done anime with great animation, music and character development. Take a look. One of the best things that I have heard as of late is that they are coming out with a Kiddy Grade 2 in the near future.

    Underappreciated. hide « show »

    Good animation quality, nice story, very detailed script. I liked the technology a lot, since it is different from what we have now only by its scope, power and simplicity of use. Also, the typical feudal future as seen in a lot of SF writings, seems logical to me, since democracy is only the child of overpopulation.

    But it does have its weak points. The Japanese/English soundtrack that makes no sense no matter how you translate it, the silly girlish clothes and behaviours applied to seemingly very old and powerful creatures, the heroic theme (the main characters escape from ridiculously dangerous situations by frowning a little, while "normal" ships and people are destroyed instantly).

    All in all, though, it was a nice series, it made me watch it from start to end. It does borrow from a lot of successful animes, but it does it in an almost original way. Also, if they would have made it more serious, people would have accused the makers of copying Ghost in the Shell. Man, I miss that series.
