Soul Link

I was kinda interested before I watched the promo for this series, so I'll probably give it a chance. Anyways, first episode was released yesy:

"* Based on a game by NAVEL

Aizawa Ryota was in the 3rd grade of the preparatory course of Central Military Academy. AD 2045, he went to a space station, Aries, for the training with his classmates including Nagase Saka and Nittak Kazuhiko. However, the station was attacked by a terrorist group, Hallarax.

Can they escape from the station and get back to Earth?"

After watching the first eps, I have to say I was a little underwhelmed. Since we can't really help but compare it to other Navel works, namely Shuffle!, I will use that comparison to describe it. The first eps of Shuffle! caught my attention immediately, and kept it basically the entire length of the show.

As for Soul Link, it didn't really hit off anything. It came off to me with Stellvia, Kiddy Grade, and [insert random other space show with romance elements] vibes. There was nothing great about it though, it seemed kinda...bland. They showed a lot of characters without introducing them though, so I imagine as the show progresses it will get a lot better.

Don't let my opinion discourage you from watching it though, I'd really like to see what other people think since this show was anticipated by a fairly considerable amount.

I hope it picks up in a few more eps though.

AnimeU also released their version of the first episode... I'll give it a try this weekend:

First Episode - OK.
Again, very hard to tell much from a first episode, I generally have to force 1-2 episodes till I start getting into something (always exceptions of course).

Well, the first episode was decent. It has some potential so I'll give it a couple more episodes.

Watched the first ep and have to say that I liked it, it could've done without the panty shots though. The girl with the gun that is sneaking around seems like a cool character. Since I like her the most already I suspect she won't get much screen time . All the characters so far seem cool though.
