This review is from: Eureka Seven, Volume 5 (Episodes 19-22) (DVD)

In Eureka Seven volume 5 you get four very good episodes of the show. Eureka has been feeling angry and sick for a while now. She takes the Nirvash into the depths of the mine alone. Meanwhile, the military attacks the Gekko again. Eureka is partially absorbed by a scub, a strange creature, before Renton gets to her, but the damage has been done.

Holland takes a mission to rescue a Vodarac priest much to Renton's dismay who believes they should help Eureka. Little does he know that only a Vodarac priest can help Eureka. Renton goes through extreme emotional distress feeling responsible for Eureka's illness and after he is yelled at by Talho, he goes to help Holland and under extreme pressure, cracks and goes on a disturbing rampage.

Eureka has been saved by the Vodarac priest, but no one dares to approach Renton after his ordeal. Unable to take the guilt anylonger, Renton leaves the Gekko. Feeling down, Renton meets two people named Charles and Ray who accept the boy. Elsewhere, the crew try and move on keeping Eureka ignorant to Renton's departure.

Renton now lives with Charles and Ray and couldn't be much happier, and Eureka starts to cope with her feelings. However, both Renton and Eureka don't know something that will break their hearts...Overall, these four episode are very good and disturbing, as well as heartbreaching at times. The episodes are of a depressing nature as simple misunderstandings cause major problems. Still, these are some of the best episodes of the show. I recommend this disc to any fan of anime, but recommend the first DVD before this one or you will find yourself lost.

This review is from: Eureka Seven, Volume 5 (Episodes 19-22) (DVD)

The fifth volume of Eureka Seven is all about alienation. Namely, that of Renton and Eureka, who ironically enough, love each other. But through misunderstanding and selfishness, they succeed only in making each others lives miserable. As the crew of Gekkostate desperately try to finish the repairs to their ship, hundreds of government forces surround them. Even as all of this is going on, Eureka takes off in the Nirvash. Renton sets off in high speed pursuit. When he finds her she seems to be on the verge of being absorbed by the cave walls. When he pulls her out she is losing consciouness and her body is coated in some sort of viscous liquid. Will Eureka be able to survive, and will they get back to the ship in time?

The thing that is becoming a bit annoying in this show is that we're almost halfway through the run, and we haven't got the answers to even 1/4 of the questions that are on my mind. What are Eureka and Anemone? Normal girls, androids, clones, aliens? What is the origin of the LFOs? What really happened to Renton's dad? What is the Amita drive? These are some pretty hefty questions and it's not really right to hold off on even the most basic details in such a long show. I don't know if my interest can be held that long. But for all that, Eureka Seven is one of the best anime I've seen. The animation is second to none and the characterization is really honest. It still bugs me that someone as young as Renton is having to experience all these horrible things. Renton should have made just a tad older, maybe 17 or 18, because the story being told her is definitely not for kids. Awesome show.

For more fleshing out of the situations and characters, I would highly recommend picking up the first three volumes of the manga, also published by Bandai. Other anime I would recommend would be Fullmetal Alchemist and Full Metal Panic.
