Summary: i want more!
Review: I have just finished watching the whole series and after watching this last DVD, I WANT MORE! The ending didn't seem like an ending at all. I want to see what happens after, but I guess they did a good job at keeping me at the end of my seat.

The whole story is based on the "girl in another world" genre. Hitomi is in Gaia, a medeival world mixed with physics (robotics). Along the way, you meet the other characters and there's a series of adventures.

I love the animation and music. It's beautifully creative and the music is enchanting. Right now I hope the creators will come up with a new season. A sequel, something, anything! This anime got me thirsting for more.

Summary: Final Episode Disappointing
Review: I loved this series up until the final episode. It seemed contrived and rushed. I don't want to ruin it for anybody reading this who hasn't seen it but things didn't turn out the way they should have. It was such a disappointment to me that I wish I had never seen it and I could continue imagining the happy ending that I had expected.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Final episode
Review: I must admit that the final episode was bit disappointing. However, still considering other manga series, i would say this was a decent ending. I am giving five stars, because you just have to give five for Escaflowne. It's flawless. It embodies the very best qualities of manga. The storyline is superb. The entire concept behind the storyline has few flaws, but the concept itself is really grand and mind-opening experience.
Final episode deserves five, because it is the grand finale of the whole series, The Vision of Escaflowne. This will expanding your imagination and open your mind. Must see this and get a copy.

Summary: Nearer the end of the story
Review: I was almost sad when I put this DVD in because I did not want the story to be over so soon. I was not disappointed in the ending. In these last episodes bonds grow stronger just as they are about to break. More amazing fights bring this story to the end. This series is amazing and is one I feel is quite rewatchable.

keep the faith,

Summary: Escaflowne
Review: I would say that Escaflowne is the best anime ever created. It has great music, great animation, great characters, a great story, great action...overall, it's just plain great.
I'm a huge escaflowne fan, and I liked every single episode of the Escaflowne series.
The last volume of the Escaflowne series is the best one, in my opinion. Although, the ending left me with a sense of vague unfulfillment, it was a good ending nevertheless.
On behalf of Escaflowne fans everywhere, I hope that someday Escaflowne will continue and allow people something to look forward to.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My all time favorite.
Review: IMHO, one of the best anime series ever produce.

The story is fantastic, the designs for everything (from the melefs to the clothing) are masterful. One of those series you can't stop watching once you've started.

The final thing that pointed me to my love for this show? Something that only one other show has EVER done to me... I cried at the end. It was so sad, so beautiful, so happy...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definitely one of the finer must have animes
Review: In Vol.7 the show implied that Zaibach had a lot more then the fate alteration engine to hide from Gaea and vol.8 did an excelent job of showing those secrets,i mean REALLY big revealations that set everything to the right perspective for every character.In the final battle they explained the most underdeveloped character of the series Jajuka who played a major role in shaping and redeming Dilandau and Gave Allen a resolution he so much needed , Van learned the lessons of war and peace , everybody got really happy in the end even the supporting cast on earth,which could have been "cheesy" in an another show but the script makes it add up here.
On the technology aspect the Melefs remained cool untill the end,the weird weapons were dangerously familiar to "our" hazardous Mystic moon counterparts and the entire alchemy angle was very interesting (see Jajuka's flashbacks for that fact).
The fast pace actually helped the show end with flawless closure of old plots and seeds of a possible future sequel show,i don't know if anyone else would like that but i know i'd love another Escaflowne.
