Elemental Gelade



Anime: Elemental Gelade (Jap: Erementar Gerad)
Type: Fantasy, Adventure, Romance
Episodes: 1 - 26
My Rating: 5 out of 5
My Grade: A

This is one of the first anime series I watched when I got really into anime. I saw the opening of it in an anime store and asked what the name was. I looked it up and watched the first two episodes online, loved it, and searched for the DVDs (until I found the box set with the whole series in it).

As I said before, it had a very well done intro to the series. It always makes you wonder what's gonna happen next at almost every end of the episode. The action and the drama were really well done. They often put in comic relief where it's needed to keep the story interesting and fun. It's full of surprises and twists that just leap out at you. While watching the series, you will be put in a long cycle of suspense and wanting to watch more and more until the end. This anime is my 2nd most favorite anime series.

Basic Story:
Cou is a sky pirate who dreamed to be the best there was. Despite his pride and ambition, he is a failure as a sky pirate. He then stumbles upon a mysterious girl, Reverie Metherlence, the Shickohoujo. She seeks to find her way back to a place called, Edel Garden. Cou offers to escort her there but soon finds himself protecting the girl with his life. Why is this girl so important? What secrets lies in Edel Garden?
