Overview: (VHS
Back)
Somewhere deep in space, an ancient war rages between the all-femals Solnoid
race and the bio-mechanical Paranoid civilization. Ordered to their newly
created homeworld, Chaos, in the 9th Star System, the seven surviving crew
members of the Solnoid cruiser "Star Leaf" are cut off from the rest of
their fleet.
As they battle their way to Chaos, the young women find themselves pawns
in the plans of the high commands of both sides. What they learn when they
reach the new world will shake their loyalty to its very foundations. And
the final decision they must make will not only affect the future of their
race, but of a race which is yet to be! |
Review:
Very Good....Though the ending was somewhat confusing.
This movie is best described as Aliens and an all female Star Trek....that's
good. Not spoil anything but the fatality rate of the main cast is
very, very high. This anime is is first in a long series of short
OAVs, which I hope to see soon. The characters are very likable (even
though a few are really annoying). A few too many shower scenes for
my tastes, but that is rather minor.
From the looks of the video cover I was expecting more action, but the
story was a very nice surprise. Recommended? YES! Very
good ending, I had let it sink in a bit to get it. Not an anime to
watch if you to be in a good mood.
Although I'd like to know one thing, if the race is all female.....how
do they reproduce? |
