Edens Zero

At the time of writing this, it's been nearly three months since this show was released but yet only a little more than a hundred participants have rated this show. 7/10 is totally undeserving for this great work of art. Edens Zero is fast paced with no fillers and has a good storyline. The adventures are awesome and you do not need to be a space lover to enjoy the anime. At first, it may look like the old "power of friendship" but it gets serious right from episode 2. After the episode where the villain turned the poor ladies into furniture art, I saw that this show meant business. Hopefully it gets better and better.

This show is just so much fun.

It's action packed, very funny and pretty darn epic already with not many episodes out.

The crew is absolutely terrific (Moscoy) and just enjoyable to watch.

Fairy tail(one of hiro other manga/anime) is my favourite thing, So when hiro throws in his Easter eggs I love it very much so, and there is a lot of them!!

If you want a show where you are smiling and laughing the whole time Please WATCH EDENS ZERO( and fairy tail obviously)

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the first few episodes and by the third or fourth I was downright rooting for our MC. The art style to me is reminiscent of anime I'd watched in my childhood but pleasantly in a modern aspect ratio and with better coloring and detail. I'm really REALLY looking forward to season 2+. KEEP. IT. COMING.

First things first- I absolutely enjoyed this anime. Was it super fun to watch? Yes. But were some problems in Fairy Tail still present? Absolutely. So, to avoid jumping topics, I'll just list the good and the bad.

Positives: -Rebecca is a very competent female character, who takes the reigns of some action scenes (seriously those guns are pretty cool) -Genuinely funny! At least, the dub was imo -Almost no filler, every episode is relevant -Fanservice doesn't happen as often as in Fairy Tail -Hey, look, some of the girls' outfits cover most of their skin! Neat!

Negatives: -When present, the fanservice is still atrocious *cough cough* homura -B-Cuber stuff gets kinda annoying when Rebecca doesn't stand up for herself (more so the blue haired chick who always makes fun of her) -Recycling characters, although this isn't really detrimental to the plot, just kind of weird (was funny to point them out while watching with my sister, though) -Rebecca's action scenes usually get cut off or are insinuated by a comment on her body -Random characters showing up and leaving for plot convenience -I get that Shiki's been training for a while, but seriously give him a real opponent he's too op right now

So overall, I'm excited for season two. Really interested in the direction this show might take, since i haven't read the manga. I'm personally hoping the plot can take some time to slow down and the universe can be explored more, but whatever they choose to do i'm along for the ride.

As this anime series opens we are introduced to Shiki Granbell, the sole human living on the planet Granbell; an abandoned theme park planet otherwise only inhabited by abandoned robots, which Shiki considers his friends. When the planet is visited by Rebecca Bluegarden and her robotic cat Happy the robots 'persuade' Shiki to leave with her. Together they determine to explore the cosmos and find 'Mother' a possibly mythical entity who Shiki believes he has met before. Following an early encounter they acquire a new ship; the titular Edens Zero. This ship had four powerful robots helping operate it; to get it running optimally they will need to scour the cosmos for these robots; in doing so they will come across various dangers.

I thought this series was a lot of fun. It nicely combines sci-fi and fantasy tropes. The characters are fun to watch and their quests, to find the four robots and Mother, are interesting. The Ether Gear used by various characters is effectively a magical power which gives the characters different skills; in Shiki's case the ability to control gravity. There is a fair amount of fan service although it will seem tame to anybody who has watched the likes of 'Strike Witches', Elfen Lied' or 'Ikki Tousen'. Similarly the level of violence may be higher than most western animation but is tame compared to many anime series. Overall I'd recommend this to fans of sci-fi and fantasy anime; I look forward to future seasons.
