Another Diamond Found In The Ocean Of Anime, April 28, 2009
This review is from: The Third: The Girl With The Blue Eye Complete DVD Collection (DVD)
I actually had never seen this series on t.v. but found it online while looking for another anime series, and I'm very happy that I did. The series has humanity living in a mostly desert world where almost everything is controlled by the powerful alien group called THE Third which puts a techno restriction on humanity, in other words they only allow humanity to attain a certain level of technology going father than that breaks the Third's law called 'Techno Taboo" which is punishable by imprisonment or death. The heroine Honoka a young girl with incredible fighting abilities who's a jack of all trades doing jobs from bodyguard to escorting is very endearing as the main character with her tomboyish way of dress and attitude, which hides a very caring heart for her fellow humans which is also the reason why that she will never kill human beings. Her partner is an A.I. named Bogie who takes care of Honoka and controls their home which is a massive tank as well as trying to make sure Honoka learns the way of the world. Along their journey they run into a mysterious young man named Iks who Honoka feels a unknown attraction towards. Of course you have to see the rest of the series to find out the rest but you'll be pleasantly surprised at how well the series truly is. The animation is good and clear no distortion and the music to the series is also very good, the fight scenes are great similar a little to series like Gundam or Naruto. The video is wide-screen 5.1 English audio, 2.0 English audio, or 2.0 Japaneses audio. The voice cast for both the Japanese and English actors did their jobs great so kudos to the people for getting the cast for this wonderful series. The price is little step but I figure for this set it's not to bad a price and I think you'll feel the same after watching this series too...

Excellent Series, Great Value, August 21, 2010
This review is from: The Third: The Girl With The Blue Eye Complete DVD Collection (DVD)
Purchased after reading many reviews for $54.00 New. I had not heard of this show before coming across it here at Amazon. It looked interesting and the reviews were all very good, and now Ive seen it myself I cant disagree. I watched all episodes in just a couple of days and was by no means disappointed. Please also read the more comprehinsive reviws, I recommend it, Give it a go!

Amazing Anime Series, December 13, 2009
This review is from: The Third: The Girl With The Blue Eye Complete DVD Collection (DVD)
Just going to keep it short. At first I was very skeptical thinking that this series was just some typical sci-fi post apocalyptic series that was nothing short of just a girl running around kicking butt. Don't get me wrong the action in the series is great. But what really captured and pulled me in was the story and characters. Its was hard putting in that last DVD knowing the series was about to end, but a wonderful ending it did have. If the series continues in the future I'll be buying it zero day. 5 stars for Animation, Story, Characters, Action, Personality If you a fan of anime in general I highly recommend this. If your looking for more of a comedy check out Desert Punk.
