[quote name='Razzuel']I also finished watching Bubblegum Crisis. It was pretty good. Bubblegum Crisis definitely takes some inspiration from Blade Runner, which I quite enjoyed, since Blade Runner is an amazing movie. It's pretty iconic even after more than 20 years since its creation; its story isn't entirely original anymore, but the Knight Sabers, the crime fighting girls in power suits, have an iconic image. Nene is probably my favorite Knight Saber, even though she's the least capable at physical combat, and Priss and Linna are probably tied for second. Sylia's definitely my least favorite, though she's not actually bad — she's just not as cool as the other three Knight Sabers. The music in Bubblegum Crisis is pretty awesome; it's a bunch of 80's Japanese rock and pop, and it sounds great. The first opening to Bubblegum Crisis, "There's a Hurricane Tonight," is probably the best song out of the bunch. Some parts of the show are a bit rough, but as it progresses, the show gets better and better. I think episodes seven and eight are probably the best episodes, but unfortunately the show ends with episode eight. Apparently it's because of a falling-out between production companies ARTMIC and Youmex. The show was already episodic in nature, but it felt like things were getting bigger and better with the last two episodes. I guess I'll have to fill this void with the sequels and spin-offs.
I definitely recommend Bubblegum Crisis for anyone who likes the old stuff and if you're a fan of science fiction like Blade Runner.[/QUOTE]
I love Bubblegum Crisis! 2040 was a lot of fun, but I couldn't stand the ending... and then ADV went up in smoke, so it's sequel (2043?) probably won't see the light of day.
