Summary: Fun Adventure; Not to be taken too seriously
Review: To sum it up, I would call this one "Evangelion - Light".Basically, it is the story of a boy suddenly trapped in an alternate world were he must cope with piloting a giant battle robot (called Core Robot) in an ongoing war, while being in the middle of a love tug-of-war with three girls (a fourth one coming up on the 3rd DVD/VHS!). Oddly, I feel the driving force of the story was not the large-scale robot battles, but the often-humorous burden of the main character of being the object of affection of several girls, all of who are or was a pilot of those Core Robots. And it shows that he is in it over his head! As for the ending of the series, all I can say about it (without spoiling it) is that it is... odd. A VERY subjective opinion here, for those who prefer the subtitled versions: I think the dubbing was excellent, never too often overdone. This is one of those rare anime shows where you would rather listen to it in dubbed English than subtitled. Again, this is my humble opinion.

Summary: Awesome !
Review: When I first heard of Dual in an advertisement in Animerica Magazine, I though it would be a Tenchi Muyo ripoff . Far from it . Dual is awesome , Dual is great , and Dual is funny! Highly recommended!

Summary: Starts off well, finishes in disappointment
Review: When I first saw the series I was immediately hooked; it had all the great comedy qualities and love-triangle scenarios that made Pioneer's Tenchi Muyo so fantastic. The concept of para-dimensional portals and alternate worlds came right off El-hazard, also from Pioneer. Moreover, the addition of mechas added more action (even though the mechas are *too* reminiscent of Evangelion *hint hint*). The mecha fight scenes are well-done, but definitely not incredible or intense. However, being a short anime series, Dual couldn't expand on some issues that came up, such as the true origins of the mechas or their properties (like for example, where the heck did those mysterious mechas underground come from?!?). The strange ending that plagued the series fortunately ends in a good note (unlike Evangelion). All in all, Dual just comes out to be a mixed clone of Tenchi Muyo and El-hazard, adding little originality to the storyline and leaving viewers scratching their heads a little after the series ends. If you are interested in Dual, the great thing worth seeing is the solid character interaction. Hopefully, if Pioneer decides to continue this series, they can expand the storyline to explore some of the more confusing details.

Summary: Creator of Tenchi Muyo, you have done it again!
Review: Wow! This is worth buying! Even though it was short, I really loved it. This is a copy of El Hazrd, Tenchi Muyo and Evangelion- but it was greater!! You chould really try this out.
