Shadow Chaser:

Whoa. Talk about weird-central. I brought the first five episdoes of RahXephon, a Japanese Anime which I thought looked a lot like Neon Genesis Evangelion and watched it. The reason I brought it was first because of my love of Eva and second because Maaya Sakamoto a talented Japanese voice actress and singer sung the intro, Hemisphere.

Twisted.

RahXephon is NOTHING like Eva. It's twisted and with serious adult overtones. The topics are so intertwined together that I had trouble following it, which is a second for me as Eva was the first anime I was so confused. But I love the characters, especially the romantic overtones of at least every woman who sees Ayato is mesmerized. But then again, he's so cute and has this mysterious air about him. Not to mention he's finally one of the most NORMAL anime characters, main characters might I add, who is practically like us reality humans.

He loves to paint, draw, goes to school, even likes to hang around his friends and have fun with them. Now that is a seriously normal anime main character! *dies of shock* Then comes the twisted part. His mom apparently is one of those blue-blooded peoples...(don't worry watch the anime and you'll get it) and he has the ability to control a psychic/organic mecha named RahXephon.

Saying more will definitely spoil everything and for the first five episodes, I am seriously hooked. I want to see more!

RahXephon, you have my congrats on such a great storyline!

-Shadow Chaser is off to FYE to see if she could buy more. Haldir is coming along for the ride!
*psst...it's been too long since I seen a fresh new anime. I have to get out more*
