I actually am planning to watch that this week. Â I was going to watch it before, but I kept getting distracted by either something I liked leaving, returning to or getting more episodes on Netflix.
The two most recent anime I've seen were Samurai Flamenco and Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, both which I liked a lot more than I expected to. Â
Samurai Flamenco appealed to me on a few fronts, but the biggest draw is because I'm a big fan of Japanese superheroes like Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Ultraman and stuff like that. Â It was so ridiculous at times, but I think that just made it all the more appealing to me.
Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, though, I had no real clue what to expect other than a post apocalyptic sci-fi element and giant robots. Â I really expected this would be a series I would only half-watch, but I was a bit surprised I got sucked in and enjoyed the story. Â It was interesting to watch the main character evolve from this brainwashed soldier to an individual who thought for himself.
