Gad-Guard Initial Impressions
I took in the first episode of Gad-Guard last night. The only things I really knew about the show beforehand was that Gonzo had a hand in it and the initial images I'd seen looked pretty slick. There's not much to give away really, since the first episode only just gets us started. The main character seems to be a school kid who works on the side as a delivery boy. It's got giant robots (guess who it looks like will get one). We like giant robots. Especially funky cool looking ones like these. The animation style kind of reminds me of Jet Set Radio Future, which is pretty cool. Oh yeah, and the soundtrack? It kicks ass. All very jazzy. The opening track is quite good IMHO. This is one I'll be waiting for more of (to balance out my waiting for new episodes of Kaleidostar (which I'll talk about soon)).

Ive watched the first sixteen episodes of Gadguard. So far this series has a unique kind of feel to it. For the first few episodes the action with the gads isnt all that impressive. Though commendable it isnt the best ive seen.They could have done better in the first few episodes but it was enough to spark and intrest none the less. But after seein these last few episodes i must say that it was definitely worth the wait. I can only wait in painful anticipation to see what will happen in the final episodes. The soundtrack does kick ass though. The jazzy music reminds me of cowboy bebop. It also adds to the type of mood the animation gives off. I recommend ppl give this series a try. It definitely is suprising the hell out of me in the long run. Enjoy it!!!!
