Summary: New Angel Steps in
Review: Continuing the series of short episodes (most actually have around 10 to 12 minutes of viewing with a little padding to add to the 15 minute quoted times, which in turn are less than the typical 22+ minute episodes of other), this is about an hour of actual watching if you skip the intros and titles. But if you like boys-and-girls together sort of fun, it's okay. (I bought mine cheap as I could find to avoid paying too much).Karinka comes in as the next angel on the list, and unlike the "minor profanity" warning her personality is that of a mean little potty mouth. She's cute and fiesty and small and she wants to destroy Kurumi, which means she has to find out Kurumi's secret. Which means she first sneaks around trying to weasle it out, then Kurumi faces her down. Brought out into the open she then joins the collection. Her little asides as to how she really feels when she's acting sweet to fool others will annoy some people but tickle others. Her realistic personality where she gets ticked off and then acts sweet clashes with the bland "I am evil. I will kill you." mornonocism of Hollywood. We find that some of the participants are supposedly from the future, and one person appears with intent to find the true secret of the steel angels. Overall, I approach the series simply as entertainment: I like the period setting which isn't overdone, and the girls and beset-apon guy, the silly puppy-love sort of crushes, and the true heart in the people. Sometimes it's a little smarmy or silly and others it's heavy. In a word, there is variety in what goes on, and overall it's aimed at level people who just watch shows for fun and laughs, and no other real purpose, and don't have to have non-stop romance or endless gory violence. I would rate it for mature teens (and teenage hearted adults) who understand girl-boy, who aren't going to spas-out about one or two nude shots, and who momma already has heard cussing. People who like saucyness but don't need stark black ugliness. Angels tend to show a hard, evil side but later on are won over into being girlfriends in the group throughout the series. And if you were into philosophy, you'd say that the angels aren't evil - they just need a good heart to show them what's right. When they meet it, they do a flip-flop in motives.

Summary: Series begins to get a little darker...
Review: Karinka shows her personality in this disc, and it's a rather bizarre one. She's willful, fiesty, and a touch sadistic, but is also very, very funny. Her interactions with Kurumi are priceless. However, this disc also begins to take a dark turn when Kurumi grows black wings and a new male angel appears. Not as fun as disc two, but a great set-up for whats to come.
Just beware, some discs won't play the last two episodes. Call ADV if you have this problem.

Summary: A Fun disk.
Review: This is the third installation for Steel Angel Kurumi. The episodes on this disk go much deeper in showing you what the character Karinka is like. The first 4 episodes on this disk basically goes into the personality of Karinka. The last two episodes on the disk goes into a darker story line which leads into the next DVD. I actually enjoyed watching Steel Angel Kurumi. The show is very fun in both languages. A little warning about the language used for the English version. The character Karinka uses explicits such as f*** and b****. There is also a little nudity as the doctor tries to repair another angel which is Saki. I would rate this TV show as PG-13.
