Am I the only one who's crazy about this show?
Sure, the noses look funny, but what the hell. Top-notch story, characters & so on.
Hell, it's medieval mecha!
So, anyone else who likes it?

Yeah the noses looked funny, but Hajime no Ippo had the same type of noses and it was still awesome...
Yeah this was a great show, one of the first series i saw, so i dont remember much right now
I recently re-watched escaflowne about 3 weeks ago. But I still haven't seen the ending.
From what I have seen, yeah, it's definitely a favorite.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
i only watched the movie, so some of the characters were like empty shells to me, but it was still damn good. mechas that drain pilots blood to make moves...talk 'bout bad ass.
Saw this a long time ago. One of the longest series I've watched, it took me a week to watch the whole thing. I don't really remember the story mostly bits a pieces. I'm gonna go rewatch it.

Also, favorite quote:
Asturian Guard (in a whiney english accent): "By order of King Aston, I hereby order you to hand over that Ispano GuyMELEFFFF"
English Dub anyone? XD

longest series? lol
It's your standard 26 episode series...
Still not finished? How can you not watched it all?
Go get the rest and watch it.
This is a very good series, altough I haven't seen it in ages, so I'd have to watch it again to remember, I just remember some of the characters and little things that happened.
Heh, I knew he/she'd be your favorite, Terra. I liked that character too. The only character I didn't really like was the evil brother, although his arm was cool... I've never seen the movie, but the series was good. The ending was kind of bleh, but I've seen worse. It had strong characters, a unique art style, and an interesting variation on mechs. Definately worth checking out.
terra can i ask where you saw this? haven't seen it in a long time and come to think of it i never finished watching the whole thing...gonna have to try to find this series...
Hehe, yeah, I keep hearing I'm quite predictable when it comes to favorite characters. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]Originally posted by: Mae

Yeah Folken's arm was cool. Actually I liked the entire character, especially towards the end.
It was a solid show all throughout. Perhaps I wouldn't mind if Merle got shot once or twice though...
@DragonSpirit: I saw it loooong ago actually, 3 years or so, grabbed it in some old IRC channel. You can probably find it on torrent now. Oh, and I just noticed that Bud gave you links so nevermind [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
On another note, Escaflowne is one of the few shows I actually own DVDs of... albeit only the first volume.
Escaflowne is so awesome! It was just over a year ago now that I saw this series, and it was my first anime series ever. I liked it so much that I've been completely addicted to anime ever since. It has elements that appeal to everyone: intense action sequences, an ever-changing love story, giant robots, evil antagonists with heartbreaking pasts, an epic struggle for the fate of a world, and some interesting twists in the plot.
@ Terra: Yeah, Merle was an annoying superfluous character. The only phrase quite as irritating to me as "Sasuke-kun!" is "Van-sama!".
just d/l'ed this from boxtorrents... thanks for the link bud...
HAHA it's such a Terra type character. I mean the type of character Terra would like. (whichever)Originally posted by: Terracosmo
Dilandau > All
Yes I absolutely love Escaflowne. It's one of those series that I actually bought the DVD (but this was before dling days). I cried...it made me cry..lol cuz it's so emotional.
The movie was okay...but i think the graphics and stuff are beautiful!
I tried my best...
to masamuneehs: I completely disagree with you about dilandau's english VA. It sounds to me how the jap voice would sound if they spoke english. Dilandau's voice is the reason I like him so much. It's perfect for him. It was like it was a wrong choice for a VA but ended up working perfectly.
The movie is meh and Hitomi Kanzaki is too cool for skool.
Oh, and the OP. Funny enough, I heard it before I watched the series. It was on a CD my friend gave me. haha, I thought it was a christmas song (possibly from teh Love Hina Xmas special, I didn't know XD).
I must say my favorite track from the OST is the Escaflowne God-voice:
(Hint - it's the one that goes "EEEEEEEE--ES-CAA-A-FLOOO-OOOW-NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE")
I've heard many a fan hail escaflowne as some of Yoko Kanno's finest work.

Yea that's the one I was talking about... only used twice in 26 episodes...Originally posted by: xanbcoo

Esca? Kinda old, but still good. TO me it's like their Dragonball, was perfect for their time, and it introduced alot of the idea's which they use in other anime's today. Classic.
MmmMmm. Ooiiishiii
