With a small audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for sci-fi fans, action fans and animation lovers. If you loved INVINCIBLE or Star Trek: Enterprise, start here.
- The mood
- Emotional (bring tissues), feel-good.
- The pace
- 1 season: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 4 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Aliens replace middle-aged Inuyashiki's body with a combat robot. He uses it to fight high schooler Shishigami, who's using the same power selfishly.
