Mechs playing basketball. I thought it was a horrible idea, mostly because when someone says "basketball", there's no better synonym for "indifference" in my mind. I just so nothing that sport.
However...
I find it fairly entertaining, episode after episode, on the fourth right now. Didn't think it'd interest me at all, but it does, it's fairly well done. It helps that it's very pretty, style and design wise, the audio is very good, and the plot is not bad either.
Yeah I am diggin on it. I didn't think I would like it since its clearly sponsered by Nike.... Buuuut, it's not bad at all. Cliche laden but they are fun cliches.
Looks like ol Lunar Bust has an old flame to deal with. Not only that, but it seems like this might all be a set up for something bigger by some of the major players on the moon. I mean, what if these things were meant to propel everything towards this direction. Meaning maybe they set up particular events to give birth to something like Basquash? I almost wonder if Coco's accident might of been on purpose...
They all got fired mid-season? That's dreadful project management, you would have thought they'd at least wait till it does it's seasonal run (13 or 25, whichever appropriate).
Shame if the whole show gets ruined because of it.
"Perhaps this is what I have always wished for since that day. The loss and destruction of all. That's right, one must destroy before creating. In that case, if my conscience becomes a hindrance to me, then I will simply erase it. I have no other choice but to move forward....therefore!" - Lelouch vi Britannia/Zero, Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch
They brought in another director, one that actually has experience with this shit and has worked on another project that went 3 episodes in before that director got fired, and the series ended up kind of meager.
Anyway, we'll see the effects, but this is most likely ruined, especially because of its animation being so special, and those guys quitting.

[WoW] This type of games should be up dated as soon as possible. Because there are many people that ere very found of such games. As these are very help full for make the brain power full and strong. So, mentaly strongness is the need of this presant era.
We will likely see the effects of the firing and mass exodus after episode 13. Here is to hoping that the anime won't suffer, but I know better than to be hopeful.
After the unusual hiccup that was episode 12, episode 13 more than makes up for it. Especially the ending. The series seems cliched at first, which it is, but the other things going on behind the scenes, that make you wonder if the whole cliched thing seems like a feint for something bigger. Firings and walk outs aside, I think things will shape up for the better.
Episode 14 marks a new opening and ending. The opening seems fairly generic, but I did like the ending song. We learn some interesting things in this ep.
Iceman apparently has a cybernetic arm, I was thinkin that was the case for some time now, but this ep confirmed it, and Sela's father is assassinated, which ought to form some interesting character development with Sela. I am thinkin that he was assassinated by either a group who was opposed to the town rebuilding, or one of Mr. Bubble Blowers cronies, because he outlived his usefulness. The former seems more logical.
All in all, this is getting more and more interesting.
Other than that one episode, the show has been nothing less than stellar so far. Just when I think I have things figured out, Basquash throws me for a loop.
The the issue between Earthdash and the Moon was pretty predictable. I mean I figured out long ago that there probably was a gravity distortion that was causing the moon to get closer to Earthdash. Though how they will solve this problem is a mystery. I mean Obviously Dan will save the day in some fashion, but it may not be in the way we would expect.
The character relationships are becoming interesting as well. The role of "bad guy" seems to shift around a lot too, which is something I have always enjoyed.
