A.I.C.O. Incarnation

Plot wise its okay, something we couldve seen on several 2010s scifi movies or early 2000s movies. Characters design and voice castings were absolutely fine as well. Animation style was okay the best was the sound scores and the very 2010's shounen opening/ending song. Its like a whole scifi movie turn into a 12 episode limited series, which was good. The story gets a bit complicated as it reach towards the conclusion but the ending was really good and might be tear jerking for some. Packed with actions and lacking in adventure aspects as the series progresses very fast. A great time killer and definitely recommended for everyone.

A.I.C.O. Tells the story of Japan being overrun with "matter", a sort of abstract material that destroys everything in it's path. The story is a bit generic but the pacing make's up for that. The biggest issue I had with this anime was the main character; Tachibana, Aiko. it's not that she lacks depth, it's the way she reacts to every situation. It's like she was made to be shocked at every turn. And it gets tiresome fast. The best aspect of the anime is the artwork. The elegant animations and fast pace of the series is what kept the two dimensional characters in check and made the series watchable. I did like the small details that made the world of A.I.C.O feel more authentic, e.g. the artificial suits that needed to be fed in order to function properly. I wish a little more thought was put into the world building of the series, it felt like I was watching a CW series with good visuals. There's nothing groundbreaking here, but it does make for a good popcorn anime.

While I agree that the english dub version, let's just say- could be improved, it had a lot good going for it. The story is enough to keep the viewers attention, and there were more than enough plot twists and story details to keep me interested. While I don't think this was a truly fantastic anime, I do think it's worth the watch. Just don't watch it in the english dub.

I really enjoyed this anime and managed to binge the whole season overnight into the next morning. I've been hearing many complaints about the English dub but luckily I didn't even know that there was a dub so I watched in Japanese with English subtitles.

The cast of characters is diverse and each has their own motive for participating in the deadly mission put before them. Many mysteries unfold throughout the 1st season and the pacing is handled quite well.

All in all one of my favorite Anime series in quite a while. If you like Knights if Sedonia you'll find much to love in A.I.C.O. 12 episodes wrapped up the story line perfect while leaving room to explore much more in (hopefully) future seasons.

The anime it's far from a very good one, but it has from the begging a good storyline and action so it is hard for to get bothered. The main carecter is Tachibana, you may get little bothered with her but it is normal. The good thing about the anime is the design of the animation I really appreciated at all!
