    Eureka 7: Astral Ocean

    Not much discussion about E7:AO, but so far I think it's been interesting and the music has been great. Hopefully it only gets more interesting from here on out.



    Plot:
    Spoiler: show
    Ao Fukai is a 13-year-old boy living in the year 2025 in Okinawa on the island of Iwato Jima with Dr. Toshio Fukai ever since Ao's mother Eureka disappeared 10 years ago. When a mysterious organization attacks the local Scub Coral, Ao somehow gets mixed up in the battle and manages to activate an enigmatic robot called the Nirvash while it is being transported by the Self-Defense Forces. Later, Ao finds out that the Nirvash belonged to Eureka, and embarks on a journey to find his mother and learn the truth about his origins.

    The last couple episodes have been great, a bit confusing, but really entertaining. When Ao shot the gun that warped the timeline a couple episodes back is probably when the story hit the max confusion level for me, what with the timeline getting changed and all, but the episodes to follow started to finally reveal things bit by bit

    I watched the first dozen episodes and thought this series was pretty ass and filled with typical Japanese cliche bullshit which disappointed me because I loved the original Eureka Seven. However, at some point, some weird shit started happening which got me intrigued. Unfortunately I haven't had the motivation to keep searching for downloads but I probably should watch more to see if the next few episodes change my mind.

    Latest episode revealed quite a few things and made the series as a whole a lot more understandable. It definitely gets better and the weird shit looks like it's only just getting started.

    Much like the original series, I'm sure all the weird shit will come full circle and everything will not only make sense, but be pretty rad in the process. This series is only going 26 episodes, no? The original had 52 to flesh out all the characters and storyline

    although I doubt truth would die from that for some reason.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    There may be a possibility the series ends on a cliffhanger because the olympics messed up the airing schedule. Only 24 episodes scheduled to air leaving 2 for bluray only release. No one is sure what the heck is going to happen.

    That is LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME. The big resolution to the original series where everything came together and finally made sense and was good and happy and etc happened in a 1 hour finale. If that ends up happening this series and gets cut and only released on Blu-ray, major amounts of rage will be coming from me ._.

    So I haven't caught up in it.. but I'm curious.

    Spoiler: show
    Have we seen Renton yet, and is it correct to assume that he and Eureka are still together? Or is that something we're unsure of still?

    We haven't seen him, but from what Eureka has said about him, I would say it's safe to assume that they are together still and that he's fighting feverishly not only for her but to get Ao back as well. But that last bit is a guess

    Pretty much, Eureka mentions Renton a couple of times and says he's fighting for them (or to reach them).

    Thanks guys. I'm happy to hear BONES hasn't completely shafted them here.. other than the whole splitting them up via alternate universes or whatever. Loved E7 a ton when it first aired.

    So this sucks, E7:AO's finale won't be until "Late Autumn." The plot has hit the point of ridiculous for me. I'll still watch the finale, but I won't have my hopes as high for a smooth resolution to this mess the writers got themselves into.

    The last 2 episodes are delayed because of the Olympics, but eh, shit happens. I haven't watched episode 22 yet, but there's a big buzz about it, I'm kinda eager to see for myself
