VISION OF ESCAFLOWNE
| Summary | Hitomi is a girl from Earth who reads Tarot, who gets taken away by a boy with angels' wings. There, she learns of a group of people whose aim is to get rid of evil by destroying and rebuilding the world. Genre: mecha. |
| Plot | A very good plot, full of plotting and twists. |
| Characters | The characters are all very real and well developed. But I found Dilandu incredibly annoying. |
| Humor | Humor definitely isn't the focus of Escaflowne, but it is present. |
| Animation | The noses look really weird. I'm sorry, but that kinda takes a lot out of it. I'm talking really messed up here. |
| Music | Words in BGMs leads to weird, un-background-y BGMs. Otherwise, the BGMs were fitting. |
| Japanese voices and subtitles | The voices themselves were good, but the subtitles were not. During the first two episodes, the translation was so terrible that I might even be able to do better. Even when the translations improved, the subtitles were badly timed so that sometimes there would be a subtitle on for half a second, and the next for thirty seconds. Also, they sometimes typed an "l" instead of an "I". I love the font, though! |
| Dubbed voices | I didn't watch this dubbed. |
| Bishounen factor | Van is cool. Wings, wai! |
| Cutesy factor | Merle's absolutely adorable! |
| Notes | None |
