Failed at watching Nichijou...



X-men 1! The success of Ironman and Wolverine must have allowed Madhouse to put more resources into the third Marvel anime series.

+ Better animation than Ironman
+ Unintentionally funny
- meaning that the voice acting is over-the-top at times

Quick impression~ The story starts out with Jean Grey as the Phoenix controlled by Mastermind sacrificing herself so that she doesn't cause anyone harm. The story quickly moves to a year later when Professor X sends the gang to Japan to look for a missing girl. The personalities of the characters sometimes seemed like parodies of themselves, but it was a decent episode despite the initial melodrama. In the opening theme, Professor X, Cyclops, Beast, Storm, and Wolverine were named as the main characters.
