Several years into the 21st century, technology has advanced to the point
where people can customize dolls called "angels" and have them fight using
telepathy.
A young girl named Misaki is sent to Tokyo to live with her aunt. On her way out of the station, she sees Kidou Tenshi Angelic Layer (Angelic
Layer) on TV.
Angelic Layer is an arena where people pit their angels against each other. The angels are controlled by their owners using a headset.
Misaki is shocked by the outcome of the battles. Before she can even blink, a loveable lech named Icchan pops up and teaches
Misaki about Angelic Layer. And so Misaki starts training to be a great
Angelic Layer combatant herself!
Kidou Tenshi Angelic Layer Anime Review
First off, Clamp fans will be happy to know that this is one of the group's
more recent works. While the artwork isn't as awe-inspiring as some of their other creations,
Angelic Layer is undoubtedly one very entertaining anime.
The dolls look especially good, with their uniquely designed suits and funky
hair styles -- it's just what Clamp fans are dying to see!
Misaki's training progresses at a believable pace, but it's not boring to
watch (Angelic Layer Crunchyroll) Kidou Tenshi Angelic Layer anime. Don't worry, it's not at all like Pokemon (with the battle arenas, etc.).
Angelic Layer review is actually a somewhat short series.
The Japanese vocal cast is excellent
-- the voices suit the characters nicely.
This anime can be viewed by everyone -- there's no nudity, sex, blood, nor
foul language. The action consists of nothing but little fights between dolls.
The soundtrack is also something to look forward to, both the opening and
ending themes are great and the background music fits everything well.
My mother was nice enough to take my sister and I downtown to an anime
convention, and so she got to watch (Angelic Layer Netflix) a few eps with us.
I laughed my head off when they stopped after a few episodes, and she yelled
"What? They're just going to leave it at that!?".
Apparently, this title is okay for none anime fans as well...
Miscellanies: Kidou Tenshi Angelic Layer
Oddly enough, this title shares a number of similarities with Magic Knight Rayearth, and Cardcaptor Sakura, such as:
- Icchan's last name is Mihara, like Chiharu Mihara from CCS.
- Misaki's doll is named "Hikaru", and looks like the Hikaru from MKR minus the braid.
- In CCS, Sakura's best friend is Tomoyo. In AL, one of Misaki's friends is named Tamayo.
