Kiddy Girl-AND

You know when you go to the movie knowing the movie is bad but will provide good entertainment? Well Kiddy Girl-And is exactly that. The story takes a while to start (around ep 12) but at least there is some good and fairly extended character development with a copious amount of fan service (which slow down after). Both Q-Feuille and Ascoeur are great! I mean the bound between them makes the whole story revolve around them and keep it tied up. They complement each other nicely, exactly like Kiddy Grade. When the story start to move, there is multiples points of view and it help understandthe whole story a bit (although they, sometime, keep it confusing) and a some point you just HOPE the characters figures it out. The art and sound stay good all the way through the end with minor skip here and there. I really like the effect of some of the power (like stop time) and some backdrop. This is an easy watch for everyone, including kids since the fan service isn't all that bad.

First things first, when I watched this series, I had not yet seen Kiddy Grade, but if I had I probably wouldn't have seen this fantastic anime. An issue I have with several animes that I have seen is that they take a long time for me to actually enjoy them. Some examples of this issue were Code Geass and Durarara!! These both turned out to be on my top 5 list. This anime did not have this problem. It starts out almost like a splice of life set in the future, with two girls who work at a trannies (Side note, what in the HELL iswith animes and their trannies?) restaurant, when the president of this universes, well, security force, whatever! It doesn't matter, minor character, but basically she's a VIP and terrorists storm the restaurant and make an attempt on the president's life. After this point it kicks into a high gear with a very fast paced action scene where Ascouer, one of the two girls, takes out the terrorists and their metal dragon bakugon thingy with a bunch of high tech gear like a energy weapon in the form of a blade and tranquilizer darts. Oh and her ability to teleport. After this the anime becomes very interesting with a semi-original plot line with some interesting characters. And Yuri. There will be Yuri. Overall I found this to be an intriguing anime but if you want something like Kiddy Grade you will be VERY disappointed. The cast includes some of the original characters like Twiddle-Dee and Twiddle-Dumb, but the storyline focuses on Ascouer and Q-Feuille. Eclair and Lumiere do come into play later, but their role is very minor and only in the first and last episodes. The storyline is almost completely different from Kiddy Grade and doesn't resemble it at all, so it's almost like a sequel reboot, if that makes any sense. Pros: + Great characters + Decent storyline + Nice animation + Well done fight scenes. + Doesn't suffer from Bleach Syndrome. + Yuri. Cons: - Ending was eh. - Lolicon. - Tried to tie into Kiddy Grade, when it should have just referenced it. Anyways, that concludes my review of Kiddy Girl-and, and I would suggest you go watch it.

I actually, really enjoyed this anime. A fanfiction anime about two girls with a strange past, trying to save the world. In the first couple of episodes they aren't in danger that much, there are even episodes they are just being themselves and doing nothing to save the world or something. But they have to be ''human'' right? Like, you can't save the galaxy your whole life. O.o Around episode 20 I really had to cry, those episodes are really showing how unbelievable strong their friendship is, how strong friendship can be. The end was absolutely amazing, really, when you're thinking it can't going more bad than this, you'rerealizing ''Oh yes, it can!'' When you're relieved the big problems are solved, it's even getting worse. I respect this anime, for the unbelieveable twists in it.

I went into this thinking it was a direct sequel of Kiddy Grade with basically the same characters, main and otherwise, like many other people. Though while other people were disappointed to find out that wasn't the case, I wasn't really disappointed. Some of Ascoeur's traits got annoying from time to time, but other than that, I liked the characters, and still think Ascoeur to be a very cute and comical character. The story did a bit of jumping around in the last couple of episodes, but I wasn't confused at all. It didn't really have too much filler to it, and the filler it did havewas entertaining, and the more meaningful episodes were nice, too. Art and sound was fine. I think both were really nice, actually. So, my rating is 9/10. I actually liked this series more than its predecessor.
