"loads of fun in postmodern way for guy" As a guy watching animes more intensely in the last 6 months, I found agent aika to be a change of pace from straight action vs getting into hentai which is an acquired taste. A couple of points (1) see gwen stefani video:hollaback girl & you can see shots of her panties which means that director has been been influenced by Japanese fascination w/ panty shots & a possible bid for mainstream acceptance in N America (2) in japanese past censored media with female genitalia, the white panties were to represent the genetalia & thus the fascination w/ panties. I found this DVD episodes 1-4 to be better than Ep 5-7 in terms of drawing detail & coloring. And action sequences & storyline more fun. Thus I would recommend to get this one first. However, if you enjoyed the peekaboos in 1-4, then get 5-7 as it's more & it's funny as hell. As a guy, I tend to get bored easily. The peekaboo factor makes a conventional action anime more interesting. And watching other animes, I feel that I am going to get a panty shot & when I don't, I have to remind myself that I am not watch Aika or Najica. I believe this fascination stems from the fact that the last few years we had the low-rider/min-skirt phenomena in women's fashion & not being able to see their panties made aika interesting for me. Plus the camera angle present a different perspective ie what camera angle is chosen for conventional vs unconventional shots. As a amateur director, I found value in watching this series from that point of view. Thus if you bored of anime & looking for change as a guy, then get this dvd "Brilliant!" If you like watching... 1) beautiful women wearing ridiculously short skirts... 2) aforementioned beautiful women beating the crap out of each other with acrobatic kung-fu... 3) lots and lots of panty shots... ...then this series is for you! Capsule reviews for both discs... "Naked Mission": Briefly (pun intended)...a megalomaniac named Hargen recruits an army of beautiful and brainy women to help him take over the world. Aika and her fellow Salvagers are caught up in his ambitions, and turn out to be the only people who can stop him! Things to look out for: Nudity (graphic), some sex (including incest!), plenty of violence (fairly graphic), panty shots galore, and...well, just see it; you'll be glad you did! "Final Battle": The Delmo Army (Hargen's women; see #1 above), is on the offensive again, and only one person stands in their way; sexy, savvy super-agent Aika. Along the way, Aika faces death, danger, and personal humiliation, but she comes through it all with grace and style. Things to look out for: Brief nudity, no sex, plenty of violence (nobody gets killed, though), one completely unethical medical exam, and...well, see #3 above. 'Nuff said! "a review" this serie it's ok if you want see a story to kill time, good animation, action and like all the series of this type, no have a story, but I think is fine to lost time. "Highly Entertaining Nonsense" Agent Aika plays like an animated Russ Meyer movie. It's perfect 1:00 AM entertainment and great way to play 'count-the-panties' (you won't be able to keep up). I suggest watching the subtitled version, as the dub verges on unlistenable. Just kick back and have fun with this flick. DON'T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!!!! "the best dvd in the ainme world i have ever scene" this is the best anime dvd it has so many pantie shots in it and the movie is the best |
