Review: I don't have much to say about this anime, other than it is very good. I have not seen the entire series yet, but I have seen enough to know that it's worth the time and money. If you're an anime fan, or a Batman (the animated series) fan, you will enjoy this for sure, and those that aren't fans of either one of those, I think will STILL enjoy this.

Summary: Very Batmanish
Review: I enjoyed this alot. It was a little hard to follow, but what anime isn't? It has a very Batman type feel. He is a playboy and seems to be rich. He has a side kick who happens to be an android and he also has a butler who knows his secret. Neat technology stuff with a nice dose of mecha in it to make an anime fan happy. The DVD really isn't that great in the sense of the extras you get. If you like the batman stuff and you like anime this is a must have.

Summary: sort of a guilty pleasure
Review: I first saw all THE BIG O episodes on Cartoon Network, and kind of fell for it in spite of some of it's over the top cheesey-ness. Yes, it's a complete rip of Batman (rich bachelor lives with butler, drives special car, and has a huge cave under his home) with a Mech (instead of a bat-costume), the oftentimes sappy saxophone is totally out of COWBOY BEBOP, the animation is stylized but limited, the character names are out of control, and they constantly repeat the "40 years ago everyone lost their memories" theme without ever really getting into "why," but there's still enough of a hook to keep me coming back. The DVD version is longer than those episodes shown on Cartoon Network, and hence, unedited. Seeing the differences between the TV and DVD versions is interesting. The first time I saw the true version of "Cast in the name of good," I was surprised. I just wish there were more than the 13 episodes! It seemes the creators are finally scratching the surface in addressing the 3 major story plots (what happened 40 years ago, where did the Mega's come from, is Roger in love with Dorothy) just as we reach the end of the first season. It's an incomplete story that needs to be cut some slack for whenever it goes out on a limb, and it's worth every decadent bit. I can't help but laugh whenever the lead character says his "Roger Smith" name out loud to himself, but this silliness adds to the appeal, if you let it. COWBOY BEBOP is a better and more well-rounded series, but THE BIG O is a nice second. If anyone who matters is reading this, I'd love to see a second season... I WANT MORE BIG O!

Summary: Big OOOOOO!!!!
Review: I found this anime very good and very enjoyable.The plot was very confusing though and I always kept asking myself how in the hell this story could end without giving any sign that help us understand what was going on in the story,but guest what,they really made it.In the very 2 last episodes I said "Oh that is what really happened".It was fun because it really gives you the chance to imagine what the ending would be.It was a mix of batman,James Bon,and some mecha animes.I recomend the complete serie to everyone.I don't think the Cartoon Network's version of the serie was bad.They showed some blood,some killings and good action scenes.Buy it,you will not waste your money at all.

Summary: "O" for Outstanding!
Review: I kid you not. This is an excellent, well-crafted, brilliant piece of animation. The character design is familiar, yet creative and striking. The mecha design is campy, even schmaltzy, yet in that fun super-hero, retro kind of way that is the perfect blend of art-deco and big hunk o'robot combined in one. You will know this anime is different as soon as you see and hear the opening theme. A sense of gothic, noir darkness pervades the whole series, yet it's never depressing, and never truly black, and every scene just drips with style, whether it be Roger's broad-shouldered, nip-waisted coat and boot cut pants, or Angel's pink catsuit and perfectly coiffed hair. The humor is impeccably timed, present in mere glances of the eye of characters, or the inflection of voices. You will love each character as soon as you meet them (or love to hate them, as the case may be). You will recognize elements of Batman, 007, and who knows what else in this series--you will also immediately recognize it is like nothing you have ever seen before, and you will be aching for more after the 13 episodes are through. I have read preview reviews for this DVD, and it is ranked as excellent in quality and truly beautiful, so this is a sound anime investment if there ever was one. I cannot recommend this series enough, and consumers must let the producers know we are ravenous for the completion of this fine work. To never know the outcome of this series would be an immense disappointment for many, many animation fans and the anime genre as a whole.

Summary: An amazing story with class, but a horrible cliffhanger.
Review: I stumbled into Big O completely by accident, but after watching my first episode, I have never missed it once. It is an incredibly entertaining show that focuses on Negotiator, Roger Smith and his giant robot, Big O. The characters are well developed and dynamic, I have yet to find a character that is flat or not intriguing. The story line to Big O is full of twists and turns, and it is one of the few shows on television that is thought provoking. The animation style combined with the music creates a haunting and beautiful atmosphere that engulfs you in the world of Paradigm City. My only complaint is that there were only 13 episodes produced. Perhaps if people purchase this DVD it will entice the shows creators to produce more episodes, and perhaps reveal "The Event" that lead to Paradigm City's amnesia. This DVD is a must for any anime fans or just anyone that likes a great story.

Summary: Running from the Room
Review: I thought this anime as terrible. Everytime I hear the theme song I go running from the room. I didn't like that it was so much like Batman. And I didn't like the giant robot at all. The only thing I liked about this series was I thought the andriod girl was funny.
