Review:
Oh god, this show.
The DVD was loaned to us by a friend we met right at the start of college. He was all excited about how great it was and how much we'd like it. Hell, the guy had it on official collector's DVD - it had to be good, right?
It's JPop and 80s spandex and bad hair and little plot. I don't remember how many episodes we made it through, but it was fewer than ten, and painful. If you want vintage action anime, this is probably one to recommend, but I found it grating and boring and hard to watch, personally. One of the first (maybe THE first) really bad anime I tried to watch. Blech.
