Escaflone

Post by Dark Lilly »

Escaflone – On a scale of 1 to 10, a 8.5. I’d rate it higher but I never really liked the way the characters were drawn. It’s tough for me to suspend enough belief to get completely passed the ski jump noses. There’s a “magic girl” transported to an alternate universe, a mecha that can only be operated by a young man who happens to be the king of a defeated empire ….. who’s evil brother is out to kill him …. and he sprouts angle wings in cases of emergency. There is an annoying cat-girl, a noble, handsome knight with deep secrets and more. The flying ships are a hoot. Battle is a combo of sci-fi and medieval siege and it’s a lot of fun. It’s a must see. There is a follow up movie and, although it is drawn better than the TV series, I didn’t find it as satisfying. 8 = Extremely engaging. Makes me anxious for the next episode. A series I might buy.
Stand back! This old Otaku has PMS, a broadsword, a double bladed battle ax, a flail, dagger in her teeth and a pistol in her belt.

I was wondering if anyone else remembers back in the day on Fox Kids, they used to show Escaflowne. The series and the movie are both great, Prince Van was a good concept of a character he was the Prince of a Dragonkin nation. After he kills his brother he is the only one left. What didnt make sense is that he is part Dragon why did he have angel wings?
