CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

A friend of mine just lent me the entire DVD boxed-set for Last Exile. I know little about it beyond the fact that a lot of people rate it highly and the soundtrack is supposed to be good. I'm looking forward to this one!

It has the best quality of animation I have yet seen, and the storyline is good as well.

Its my favourite anime series and is very good and quite clean in terms of content. I hope you enjoy it mate!

Yes, definitely enjoy it! The animation quality was excellent. If you're open to it, I suggest watching the subtitled version. I think that a lot of the wieght of the series was taken away by Lavi's voice actresses who just couldn't pull of the emotion of the character without sounding overtly cheery and peppy. (Sorry, this is one of my pet peeves, voice actresses who sound like like they're on helium all the time. )

One word before you start it, don't expect it to be the best thing you ever saw. I did, and, at the end, I was like. . . "T-that was it? That's the best anime ever!?"

I guess I'm weird like that, though. I always hate stuff people have been cracking up to be awesome, and I generally like the stuff everybody told me wasn't so great. Probably has to do with expectation and them not being met. . .

Are you kidding? How could you be underwhelmed by liek teh gratest animay evar?!!!11oneoneone (j/k)

Rent Steamboy and that statement will change to, "It has the( SECOND) best quality animation I have yet seen..."

I owe one for Zipo Master for introducing it to me

Well, I'm hoping to kick it off tomorrow. Move through it quickly. Then perhaps pick up the RK boxed sets.

Better than Star Wars.

I bought the box set too, i'm about half way through it and enjoying it a lot The animation IS excellent.
