Summary: Lets make some fun of mech Anime's
Review: after I watch the first episode I feel in love with it! they did a tastful job of making fun of most mech anime's. With it's light hearted view I'm sure it will be one that you will watch again and again

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Tenchi + Neon Genesis = Dual
Review: AIC has done a really wonderfull thing and taken two series and combined them into one. I know that this will lead to people getting upset about it stealing from "their" favorite shows. That's why it seems so familar to everyone. I love Neon Genesis and I love the Tenchi Muyo OVAs, so to me this seems like the best of both worlds. I love the way that the characters interact with each other just like they do in Tenchi. Some charaters don't seem to be to well thought out and don't have too much feeling to them. That can be attributed to the length of this series though. I found that the story moves right along making you smile and laugh.... sorry it's not as serious as neon genesis is but it does have some exciting mecha battles. You'll find yourself rooting for your favorite girl to hook up with Kazuki. There is just a whole lot of fun in viewing this anime. This first DVD out of four deals with setting up the characters and the situation. There are some hidden things on these discs that are pretty neat that wil enhance the viewing experince of the series(there are secrets on all the discs). The animation is really pretty darn good with a style like that of Tenchi Muyo. I gave this series a 5 because they were just as fun as the tenchi series were, and since I am a huge fan of Tenchi then what else could I have given this? The only thing about this series that I absolutely hated was the inclusion of the CGI. They detracted from the viewing experience and they did not blend well with the animation. Yuk!!!! If you are a fan of Tenchi Muyo then you can't afford to miss these.

Summary: Great series, just gets better as it goes along
Review: Alright here is the deal, Dual! is a wonderful series, people may not like it because it takes so much from other series (Evangelion, El-Hazard, and Tenchi) but thats what makes the show so much fun. The first two disks are almost filler, but adding just enough to keep you interested. If you pick up the first two and are mildly interested, do yourself a favor and pick up the last two, they are much more story filled and dramatic. You are gonna love this one.

Summary: Dual Rulez!
Review: Dual is one of the best animes ever. It was created by the people who made Tenchi Muyo. It has the animation of Tenchi mixed with the jokes of Fushigi Yugi, the action of dbz and of course giant mechas like Rayarth. If you enjoyed any of those animes you'll love this. Plus it has great characters like the strange Misuki, the mesterious and quiet D or the occasionally perverted Ken Sanada. This dvd/anime will make you laugh out loud. If your an anime fan. You should definatly buy this!

Summary: Another Sci-Fi/Mecha/Drama/Comedy/Action/Romance Anime
Review: Dual! is another one of those titles that perfectly showcases everything that makes anime great. Kazuki Yotsuga is yet another in a long line of SNT's. (Seemingly Normal Teenagers). And of course, if he were normal, it wouldn't be interesting. Plaguing Kazuki are visions of gigantic robots doing battle right in his hometown! However, nothing really happens in his town due to the fact that the robots aren't there.

Kazuki meets up with Mitsuki Sonada, the lead heroine. Mitsuki brings him to her father Ken, a young scientist (and I use that term loosely) interested in the discovery of an alternate realm, a Parallel Universe, if you will. After accidentally being sent to this other dimension, Kazuki quickly finds himself in the middle of a war for the world. And I will stop the plot summary there to avoid spoiling more of the fun.

Dual! is a charming series, filled with likeable characters and humorous situations in the semi-romantic tensions between Kazuki and Mitsuki (And the other girls that Kazuki meets). Another pleasant suprise is the ability Dual! has to handle drama effectively, letting you connect with the characters on a deeper basis than your normal comedy anime. Action is also done well, as the mecha engage in high-impact battles that are almost equal to that of the legenedary Neon Genesis Evangelion, although they are considerably shorter.

Spanning four DVD's, this is an incredibly affordable series, and a definite must-have for fans of Tenchi Muyo (Dual! is a production of the people who brought you Tenchi) and Evangelion, or those who would enjoy a nice Sci-Fi/Comedy show.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My immpression.
Review: El Hazard meets Evangelion but not so seriously.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny, Suspenseful, Mecha genus!
Review: Here is another great series from the creator of "Tenchi Muyo". It's a story about a young high school freshman that is by- accedently transported to parallal world by a "mad" scientist and his daughter. If that isn't enough he is captured under secured custode. I'll leave you on a cliff hanger on this one, but if you like NGEva, Tenchi, Hyper Doll, or even Sailor Moon and Gundam, you'll love this series.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: some hits and misses
Review: How do I put this...there are some really good episodes, and scenes in Dual that make watching this well worth the time and money...the comedy, the romantic momments...kinda like Tenchi Muyo and Ranma...but but but there are also really disappointing and confusing "what the heck is going on" episode(s) (almost like the last 2 awful episodes of Evangelion)...and that really messes up the whole series...so I don't know if it's really worth getting the whole DVD set...that's a question mark right there...so I'd rather get something else in the mean time, there are a lot better anime series out there (like Kenshin and Escaflowne) to get in the mean time...
