 | Xam'd: Lost Memories (2008) Genres: Action, Sci-fi Episodes: 26 Description: Akiyuki, the main character, lives on Sentan Island, a land that has preserved its status as a free and peaceful island in a world consumed by fighting between the Northern and Southern Governments. All of this changes when Akiyuki boards a bus along with a mysterious white-haired girl who transforms his arm with the lost memories and power of Xam'd. As Xam'd, Akiyuki goes on a rampage and is saved when a foreign girl with red hair named "Nakiami" calms him down, taking him back to her postal vessel. Akiyuki now must gain control of his powers and use them against the Northern Government's latest weapons, known as "Humanforms". Travelling the world on a postal vessel, Akiyuki hopes to return home one day, but until then he befriends other passengers on the boat. Thoughts: Interesting show, interesting creatures, personally I don't think there was enough setup of the world, but that could just be me. The progression was pretty good, and it had a solid ending, if a little unclear. Not really what I expected going in, but well done nonetheless. Ranking: Story: 4/5 Decent, there were some things which could of had more explanation. Animation: 5/5 Really good animation, I thought it worked well. Action: 4/5 Quite a bit of action, and its pretty good. Comedy: 2/5 Not so much comedy, has a more serious tone. Link: http://www.justanimedubbed.tv/watch/xamd-lost-memories/ |
