Because of that, the setting keeps its apocalyptic and melancholic atmosphere most of the time. After a lot of entertaining (mostly for the viewer) drill, the team mastered the basics of piloting the Aquarion unit, but it still isn’t enough to stop the harvesting attacks of the Shadow Angels on a worldwide scale. They appear somewhat fragmented in the first place, but they are efficient. He is guiding the team with his odd teachings. During the show there are a number of backflash scenes from their previous lives.Īn interesting but also a bit weird character is the commander of DEAVA, Fudo.

The idea of reincarnation plays a big role in this anime, even though only the three main characters are really involved in this subject. Some people believe that he is the reincarnation of Appolonius, the Shadow Angel which helped the humans in the past. The latest member is no exception, Apollo is a crude street kid, he has a lot of potential, but he’s also a big delinquent. The main focus of the anime are the characters, and the slowly developing understanding for each other, at first the team of loosely conglomerated pilots don’t seem to harmonize very well, the playboy Pierre, the depressive Reika and the aristocratic siblings Sirius and Silvia are just too different in mind. In the 26 episodes the story progress is slow, most of the time there is the Shadow Angel attack of the week pattern where the characters have to face a new challenge and improve parts of their teamwork, personality or overcome personal issues during the fight with Shadow Angels Every Vector can become the head part and so the whole Aquarion machine has three slightly different shapes with different abilities. When combined the emotions and the special Element abilities of the pilots are amplified, nevertheless the performance of Aquarion depends on the emotional compatibility of its pilots, which causes a few problems for DEAVA from time to time.ĭuring the merging event the male pilots just feel a big boost of power, while the the female pilots apparently have an orgasm, a funny kind of fanservice, Silvia does a great performance XD. One part forms the head, one part forms the midsection and the third part forms the leg section. Only people with special abilities can pilot the Vectors, these three vehicles can be combined into a huge Robot called Aquarion. These Vectors were already used by Apollonius and his comrades 12000 years ago.

Out of desperation the organisation DEAVA started an excavation mission to find a weapon to fight the superior enemy, they found three plane like vehicles, called Vectors. The weapons of mankind have no effect on the enemy. They start to attack the humans again with mecha units and harvesting machines to catch the inhabitants of the cities.

In the future 11 years prior to the story an great crisis occurred and the Shadow Angels from 12000 years ago were free again. In a bloody battle Apollonius and his human comrades were able to seal the Shadow Angels in their base, called Atlantia. The Shadow Angel Apollonius once betrayed his comrades after he fell in love with the human girl Celiane. In the distant past mankind faces a fearsome enemy, the Shadow Angels who harvest them to extract their plana, the energy source of the Angels. With its fancy transformations, special moves and sudden enhancements of power levels Genesis of Aquarion is a little homage to the Super Robot shows of the 1980’s. So far I enjoyed it a lot and so I got curious about the previous anime. In this latest anime season a new adaption of the Aquarion franchise called Aquarion Evol started.
