Has anyone seen this OVA? It's about 4 episodes long and was a "web project" turned anime produced by Gonzo Studios - A sort of love story set in the future.

I saw the entire series. It was a bit shallow as far as story, and it did have some cliche elements, but the animation was good and the dub was pretty solid. I enjoyed it but not enough to spend any more then the money to rent it.
It was well done for what it was, but you can only do so much in four episodes.

Yea it was a bit of a love story. But it didn't have any fanservice or nudity that I can remember (its been awhile sence I saw it). I'd say its worth renting but not buying.

That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

without condition, without beginning or an end. Here's
my heart, let it be forever Yours, only You can make
every new day seem so new.

A splitting brow forced by the thorns
His face is writhing with the pain yet it's comforting to me

It's a renter. It's a hard sci-fi series, so if you are hard core sci-fi, then you may enjoy it enough to own. The story has nothing too objectionable and it has been done many times elsewhere, but the animation is very good and worth the look.

On the other hand, for those pursuing a collection that contains a title that begins with every letter of the alphabet, then this is a good (and short) title in the slim "Z" section.
