A sleek, explosive '80s cyberpunk gem - killer androids, nonstop action, and gritty style. Pure adrenaline with a classic anime edge.

Stylish, sharp, and short. A must for retro sci-fi fans.

I will give this series solid (7/10) Starts slow but rewards patience.

A dark, thought-provoking look at justice and surveillance.

The animation of this 45 minute film is typical for Japanese anime of that era, but done really well. The attention to detail is very nice and the action scenes (humanoid military robots fighting in tandem) put to shame most of the modern animes and big budget films alike.

The plot is that of Terminator 2, basically, with the role of Arnie being taken by a feisty female reporter who needs to save a hapless girl from a killer robot. For some reason that is never revealed, the termination target is the creator's granddaughter.

I found the world in which all of this happens very chic, with very sci-fi concepts like machines routinely flying inside cities and killer robots combined with old fashioned ones like buttons to switch off robots and crappy looking vehicles. I think any anime fan would like this, even if it is not a masterpiece. The roots of a lot of the greatness of Masamune Shirow's Ghost in the Shell is apparent in this OVA.

Black Magic M66 is a anime OVA from the 80s is sort of like a mix between The Terminator and Ghost in the Shell with a plot involved two extremely dangerous cyborg from the military get loose in the jungle after an plane accident and started to killing all the people who get in their way to hunt down the main target.Because this is a short anime so don't hope the plot explain much,it also very chessy and some time a character make very dumb choice,Beside that the hand drawing animation is fantastic,the action scene is cool and violent although it not super gory like most of 80s anime but it enough to keep you entertain through out the movie

Black Magic M-66 is an anime based on Masamune Shirows manga of the same name, or to be more precise on the chapter Booby Trap. It was also Shirows first and last time he took a seat in the director's chair, there being so many problems behind the scenes that he refused to have anything to do with the future of the franchise. Luckily he met Mamoru Oshi and the rest is history.

The anime is clearly influenced by James Camerons the Terminator and Aliens. The story is about an seemingly indestructible cyborg on the hunt for some hapless victim. It is a fast paced, short and action packed anime that manages to hold your breath for its complete run of 50 minutes.

The animation is similar to that of Appleseed the ova which was released the following year and which was also based on a Shirow manga. The animation clearly makes it a product of its time, the late eighties early nineties, and are perhaps a notch or two better than that of Appleseed. Nevertheless if you like cyberpunk anime like Appleseed or the first Terminator movie you should give this one a try.

Notice that there are many first in the crew, like Hiroki Hayashi (Bubble Gum Crisis 2040) and Hiroyuki Okiura (Jin-Roh).
