I just finished watching all the episodes, and I must say that it far surpassed my expectations.  I saw the old movies that were live action when I was a child, and when I found this anime, I had to check it out.  This anime is definitely meant for an older audience(16/17+) because of the violence, swearing, and gore found in this anime.

The storyline was not lacking, everything played into something more.  The characters stayed true to their actions.  Meaning there were no characters changing their personality to fit the story.  There is something for everyone, from blood and gore, to action, drama, suspense, mystery, and a small play on romance. 

One of the bigest issues I have normally is when the characters dont have any substance to them, and when the plot seems like it is forced.  When watching this series, the plot flows very well, and the characters are very well rounded, thought out, and have distict personality traits about them.

While this is a sci-fi anime, it is definitely one I would recomend, even for those who are not normally interested.  Yes, the animation is not something you would see in a major motion picture, but it has much detail to it, and the quality is every good.  There is a distict style of animation for this series as apposed to copying from another.  While it is anime, it is unique in its own way and makes for great entertainment.  You will find yourself drawn into the characters and the story in no time.  The 26 episodes seem to just fly by.
