Shinpi no sekai Eru Hazâdo

This is my favorite anime series ever. I just finished the series today, and I loved it. I'd already seen the whole TV series before, but it wasn't as good. The TV series used too much filler and dumbed down some of the plot. I'm not going to give away the plot, because it just has so many twists. But without revealing anything, this series is about four high school students who get transported to a different world. Sounds kind of familiar doesn't it? Well, it should, there's at least twenty other anime series that are just like that. However, El Hazard pulls it off like no other. It has a great story, great direction, great music, great characters, and so on and so on. The series kind of drags around the third tape, but that doesn't really matter. It's still great. It does get kind of sad around the end, though. Make sure you have a tissue ready. It's also kind of confusing, almost exactly like the TV show. Just with a different character. I haven't seen the sequels yet, but from what it sounds like, the sad thing is reversed. I don't know how, but it is. I guess I'll have to see them. That's enough for now, just go rent the series. NOW!

This is one of my favorite anime shows, and perhaps is one of the most underrated shows around. A wonderful and funny cast of characters, and Jinnai is also cool, even though he is the bad guy, he is very funny, gotta love the way he laughs, a real megalomaniac. And the bugrom he rules are also funny even though they make those annoying sounds. And I like also the teacher Fujisawa, who is portrayed as a drunk person who drinks and smokes a lot, and becomes very strong once he is sober. A good reason to learn to drink moderately, or not to drink at all. And Fatora and Allielle are also funny as the perverted lesbians in this. The main character is also cool and funny, especially when they had him dress up like a girl. And he is in a jeopardy as well, he seems to know about the machines and technology in El Hazard, but can he send them back? or contact Ifruita? And not to mention he is the object of affection to both Nanami and Shayla Shayla, hello Tenchi! Overall this is a good series that should be viewed by any anime fan or non anime fan who is not familiar with anime at all, not much violence in it, but the humor is a bit adult, especially the hot spring part, or Fatora. Watch it. It's great.

This romantic comedy is my favorite anime series. The plot is both serious and rotf funny, especially Mr. Fujisawa, the alcoholic, chain smoking history teacher and Jinnai, the insane student council president. This is definitely a must see!

Decades away from my first viewing, the wonder was still present as the world of El Hazard rich in culture, design, colour, and depth unfolded. At the heart of the series is a captivating story full of mystery, tension, and excitement with a definite beginning and end. Comedy weaved throughout brings everything from chuckles to laughs without being goofy or derailing the tale.

Characters are dynamic, even the crazy madman gets an appreciated nod. Blending so many genres sounds chaotic but the hybrid Sci-Fi Fantasy shows are bundled nicely into a unique viewing experience. This is amoung the best anime of all time throughout the ages.

They don't make cartoons like this in the United States, one filled with the kind of creativity that this one holds. This 2 and one half hour plus adventure will change the way you view the animated film.

Romance? Its got plenty. Comedy? Mr. Fujisawa will keep your sides splitting. Action? The visuals are nothing short of kinetic. All of these wondeful elements are mixed together in a captivating story of unselfishness and sacrifice. Brilliant!
