I Heart this anime. The Hard Rock/Heavy Metal, fight/battle music. So rare to have an anime to watch where the music is actually exciting and not some slow boring music for a fight scene. :P
I enjoyed the first episode and I hope there's many more.
Crap, n/m it's a 6 OVA, that sucks.

" In the land of Foreland a coup de tat has occurred and the princess, after witnessing the death of the King, is on the run. She meets with battle-hungry bounty hunter Fallis, and with a twist of fate they both switch souls, making Alita the maid of the now princess Falis. Named for her bravery in confronting the enemy as ‘Murder Princess’, Falis must continue to be the princess as well as confronting any new opponent that comes to her way." -ANN
Now that Geass is over for a while, gg seemed to find something else to occupy their spare time with:
Episode 1 - gg
Edit: It was an entertaining first episode. The description and even just the name were quite good indications of the level of deepness that was to be expected of this series, and indeed based on this first episode it seems like a purposefully light series. It worked really well.
But damn that land has a dangerous countryside...

This one looks fun, I wouldn't have expected her to take over as princess. Usually in body switch situations the person desperately tries to get their old bod back, but this method seems much more entertaining. I can't wait to see how much craziness the crude and violent Falis will manage to stir up amoung the nobility of this country, not to mention her two lackies.

But it's "coup d'état", at least if we're dealing with the french word for it

It looks like CrystalNova decided to broaden their prospects beyond Aria:
Episode 1 - CrystalNova
Episode 1 LQ - CrystalNova
They released two versions, the normal being 200MB (although they call it HQ, but it's standard, rather), and the LQ 116MB for those desiring smaller downloads. Both in h264 in mkv containers. gg's version was 364MB, which, I must say, was a bit on the larger than necessary side really, considering it had just a standard resolution. Still, knowing CrystalNova, I might find it hard to wait for their subs. Although gg wasn't that fast all the time with Geass, so who knows.
You will be sorely disappointed if you think anime sites uphold outstanding standards in spelling and grammar. While Animenfo is in its totally own league with barely understandable descriptions, it's not totally uncommon for ANN either to have texts that somehow avoided their proofreading efforts. And when I quote something, I generally try not to alter the content, for good or for bad.Maybe there was a problem with the copy/paste.

I just replied that because the words were too altered and it was confusing when I first read it.
And I understand your point for quotes (I just forgot this possibility)
c u
If leaving out the apostrophes made it too altered and confusing, then you have a weak comprehension for the english language.
I'm going to start download this series soon. Which sub group would you guys recommend?
Power without perception is virtually useless!
I'm going to archive CrystalNova's sub (the HQ version). Quality wise they are one of the best groups around. Subbing speed is not stellar, though.
Thanks for the quick reply Kraco. I couldn't decide between them and Ayu but definitely getting CrystalNova's HQ version now.

I've found the gg releases to be a little better than Crystal Nova personally they're even slower than CN but I don't really mind downloading things twice.
Final Episode by Ayako is out!

That ending made very little sense, but it wasn't really unexpected. Doomsday/miracle machines always seem to have off switches that also destroy them. All in all it was a nice little OVA though, predictable yes, but enjoyable nonetheless and with an excellent OP for my collection.
After seeing the title I was not too interested, and so I downloaded the show just to make fun of it, you know, for a laugh. Well, I found that i liked to show. And while I found the concept of little girls with pink hair and robotic arm that stab through people stupid, I found the show EXTREMELY enjoyable. I have only watched the first ep, so we will see if it stays this fun, but so far it's pretty awesome.
Thanks guys/gals for making me aware to a new anime.
I was hoping they'd switch bodies back. Hopefully they'll make a TV episodes to cover that. :P
Probably won't happen lol.
shadow..... way to post a spoiler.
Way to decide to pick up the series the day after the last ep comes out. People are going to discuss the series as a whole for at least a week or so before this thread vanishes into the bowels of Gen Anime.
did you look at my join date? lol. It's cool. I was never one to be angry about spoilers, but I know other people HATE them.
Generally, spoilers are only uncalled for when the episode hasn't been subbed, the material is only available in manga format, or the series is a remake. There's a rules thread with more detail. Once the episode is subbed, consider yourself warned about "spoilers" in the threads. I will use a "episode content" spoiler only if I'm posting the download link in the same post.
As for the end of the series, I have to admit I suspected they'd be stuck the way they are. Faris-Alita would kill Cecelia in a brutal fashion, and not kill Kaito. I didn't foresee her losing her friends and the androids, as well as everything non-human in the world.
It was a light and funny OVA series, with good action sequences. Faris going into Berserker mode on Kaito was very well done, multiple slashes in very quick succession.
As for their body swap situation, the anime made it much more complicated. Falling together in a mystical magical light. I only ever had the first three chapters of the manga, but this is how it happens there. Age-old anime cliche.
That version would be an easy fix.
Is the .MKV file of the last ep the HQ verison?
