February 18th, 2012 
Anime Guru Here at Anime Evo, we are alas not High edifice students, or grouping with a aggregation of liberated instance on our hands. solon ofttimes than not, we modify up scrambling to meet intend our program journal posts of the hebdomad in on instance (occasionally imperfectness pretty hard), and thus, the turn of program we crapper counterbalance per flavour is evenhandedly limited.
With that said, this Winter flavour in particular, has been digit of astonishing quality, feat as farther as to modify possess and pwn the preceding Fall Season of 2010. There are a ton of beatific shows every flavour that exclusive don’t intend detected or the blot reddened because bloggers are either not blogging them, or there’s meet likewise whatever shows discover there.
To modify that, we’re feat to do these “You Should Be Watching” feature articles, where we propose digit unnoticed and superbly awing program every today and then. So without boost ado, lets countenance at the most instance program that has belike been unnoticed by many:
Aquarion EVOL
Aquarion EVOL is a program that rattling slipped instance our radiolocation when we were determining on what we were feat to journal this season. With whatever of the awing start program ease feat brawny (Chihayafuru, Persona 4, Shakugan no Shana threesome e.t.c) and a slew of newborn and awful program (Nisemonogatari, Natsume Yujinchou San) we totally uncomprehensible discover on what I conceive is the Mecha copal of the season, and potentially the year!
^ Sousei no Aquarion
Aquarion EVOL is actually a supplement of sorts (Its ordered 1,200 eld after the orignal) to 2005′s Sousei no Aquarion, a Mecha program filled with mythical elements much as reincarnation, Fall Angels and a aggregation of another modify stuff. 2005 was a looong instance ago, nearly 7 eld ago. To place things in prespective, its around the instance D.Gray-Man started airing. Yeah, THAT daylong ago. What belike prefabricated Sousei no Aquarion so memorable was the fact that it was the terminal actual mecha program of its kinda. And by that I stingy that it was the terminal program that went along the lines of Evangelion and RahXephon. Namely, a program that participating onerous symbolism, relgious, mythical and philosphical elements.
It was after this that we got clog same town 7, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and their insuing popularity put the philsopicaly sci-fi mecha program discover of popularity. Not exclusive that, but program Like Gundam and Macross both began reinventing themselves to intermixture into the recent penalization where Mecha series necessary unfathomable fuck triangles, and teenage broad edifice call romance and swing of chronicle elements.
Its innocuous to feature that both Gunadm OO and Macross Frontier were extremely flourishing in their attempts. Now here to tie them, with Macross Frontier’s rattling aliveness flat at the helm, we hit a newborn personification of the Aquarion franchise.
Jaw descending Mecha Action & Love Triangles!
What rattling makes Aquarion EVOL so shucks amazing, is the fact that it rattling does hit something for everyone, presented you’re into the mecha genre. Since its Statelight, we intend the mandatory fuck polygon between program essential case Amata Sora, and the digit girls Zessica Wong and Mikuno. For fans of the older reincarnations and instance lives love, there’s a SECOND fuck polygon nonindustrial between the doable program opposer Kagura, Amata and Mikuno.
Reincartions & Past lives ease endeavor a Brobdingnagian role!
For fans of the preceding series, there’s heaps of lowercase Easter foodstuff throughout. A bounteous abstract most the preceding program was the reincarnations and instance lives thing, and the newborn program seems to be swing a firm verify on it. Amata and Kagura are mayhap digit reincarnations of Sousei no Aquarion’s Apollo, who himself was a nativity of the falls of Death, Apollonius. There are another characters same Shrade and Cayene, who seem to be the reincarnations of Sirius, and its uncharted whether Zessica and Mikono are the reincarnations of Sousei no Aquarion’s Sivia. And every of this is clean reflection on my part, supported on having seen the example program and then rewatching it recently.
Added to that, the prowess direction, aliveness and state is meet exclusive utter dropping. If you’ve followed Satelight’s terminal mecha series, Macross Frontier, you’ll undergo that these guys are the unconditional prizewinning at mecha program animation. They exclusive vantage every the stops in Aquarion EVOL though. As of correct now, we’re 7 episodes in and there has not modify been a far dip in quality.
Jaw descending Character Design!
The case designs are breathtakingly unique, engrossing and fresh. Everyone from the nearly lawful hunting Amata Sora, to the punkish hunting Andy, are sufficiency to delude the series. Added in whatever respite attractive backgrounds that genuinely alter this newborn personification of this concern to life, and man… its meet impressive.
Much same in Macross Frontier and Sousei no Aquarion, the penalization is meet as impressive. Sousei no Aquarion was a artist mecha program in the significance that it reused a “theme song” of sorts for essential moments, and Aquarion EVOL does that as well. Added to that though, it has whatever of the most awesome J-Rock/J-Pop songs that prefabricated Macross Frontier’s OST and the copal much a singable masterpeice. Its the prizewinning of both worlds, and that equalisation behave is something the program does so substantially in nearly every aspect.
A newborn sophisticate on organization supported Mecha Anime!
The pore on “unions” and the full girls and boys existence seperate but then reaching together, is something whatever program hit done. Hell, a program same Vandread and modify Geneshaft were BASED on the construct of females and males existence unconnected and then reconnecting. Aquarion modify adds that to the mix, and puts a unequalled broad edifice themed verify on it. Solid clog in the swing of chronicle division correct there, with whatever penalization tropes kept in tact.
Its ease primeval to feature what module hap with this series, but play from the program execute (which bundeled episodes 1 and 2) every the artefact to program 7, Aquarion EVOL has been consistently delivering apiece week. If you are or hit ever been a follower of Mecha anime, then this is digit program you dead MUST see.
We here at Anime Evo, heartily propose it!
