5.0 out of 5 stars
This is must see anime, October 12, 2004
This review is from: Last Exile 3 Pack (Vol. 1-3) (DVD)
With this purchase you get the first three dvd's of the Last Exile series. Fans of the series might have seen this on Tech TV last winter, but you will find that the animation is much cleaner on DVD format. The contents of the DVD extras are uninspired, but the story is the real gem here. The approach of this title actually makes the fantasy seem plausible. The voice work is astounding, featuring the voices of Spike from Cowboy Bebop, Vash the Stampede from Trigun, Alucard from Hellsing and many noticable others. High quality and well worth the purchase, I know I'll be returning to this series again and again

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Last Exile 3 Pack (Vol. 1-3) (DVD)
Last Exile is probably one of the best animes out there. It's got gorgeous art, a great storyline, and really awesome characters. Totally awesome. :) Last Exile is a must-have for any otaku. It's got everything an anime lover wants.

A delightful show..., November 12, 2004
This review is from: Last Exile 3 Pack (Vol. 1-3) (DVD)
The setting is lovely - nations, more like city-states, use airships and formal rules of combat to fight battles. The battles are overseen by the Guild. The artwork is perfect, the characters real and the soundtrack is awesome. The main characters are two vanship pilots who deliver letters - Claus and Lavie.
The plot becomes twisted when it seems that the Guild have their own ideas about which side should win - it seems one nation holds a girl they want. And want bad.
The air battles are amazing, with much of the effects done by computers. The English voices of Crispin Freeman, Tony Oliver, Steve Kramer and Lex Lang are just some of the stars you will hear. Each disc has four episodes and some extras, but the big plus is the unfolding story. It really hooks you and keeps you watching. This isn't anime, this is art.
