| Title: | Girls And Their Guns |
| Series Name: | Madlax |
| Score: | 8 - Excellent |
| Description: | Originally Posted by: Shadowfyst997 Alright its been an extra week since I said I would do one, but here I am. Synopsis Margaret Burton is a privileged young lady living in the peaceful, suspiciously Franco nation of Nafrece. Madlax is a hard-bitten mercenary who ekes out a violent living in a jungle hellhole called Gazth-Sonika. When Madlax butts heads with shadowy crime syndicate Enfant and its masked figurehead Friday Monday, and Margaret discovers an ancient book that destroys the wills of those who read it, the lives of these two seemingly unrelated girls are set on a collision course.Somewhere in the war-torn depths of Gazth-Sonika primeval forces call them to a reckoning with their pasts...and the future of mankind. Animation 8/10 It has a nice quality to the aritstry that i cannot place, almost a sense of realism. There are a lot of shots of landscapes that are beutiful to behold. The gunfire looks pretty well drawn. Only a couple flaws keeping it from being ten, but then again, nothing is perfect. Storyline 8.5/10 This series can be pretty slow and confusing in the first half, and it likes to jump around unpredictablly between margeret and madlax, but once it takes off, it all unfolds beutifully, and everything makes sense. Audio 9.5/10 This section gets such a high rating becaus the music is spectacular, and the soundeffects are extremly realistic. This anime has some of the best music I have ever heard in an anime, and it still holds that title. Character Development 7/10 This series develops thier characters nicely, but it takes way too long to do it. Madlax develops at an even pace, and so do all of the supporting characters, But Margeret, the main MAIN character, doesnt change until the last 5 episodes, in my opinion. Overall Score 8.5/10 This is a pretty good anime overall, but again i will warn, you have to have a bit of patience to get through the first half. Also, i will mention, that this anime is notable because it has lesbian themes. It is just in the background, and only noticable if you pay attention. |
