My notes

If Captain Kronos is the live action film that influenced anime, this is anime returning the favor. A film of amazing, anime-influenced visual style. Solid action, deeply curious visual style. It’s just a shame that the plot, story, and world building are either thin or logically-contradictory just to justify the imagery.
