Big O tv Review
The story takes place forty years after a mysterious occurrence causes the residents of Paradigm City to lose their memories. The series follows Roger Smith, Paradigm City's top Negotiator. He provides this much needed service with the help of an gynoid named R. Dorothy Wayneright and his butler Norman Burg.
When the need arises, Roger calls upon Big O, a giant relic from the city's history that may hold the key to its future.

Story & Characters
This is a pretty good anime, i catch it at around 1:30 2:00 on cartoon network. Ive onoly seen it a couple times and i havent caught it in order. The plot is pretty good, based on mamories, that are worth MIlloins of dollars. alot of Big robot battles too. The negatiator is the main carecter, who pilots his Giant robot, Big O. With his android/ maid, at his side. He encounters many enimies and always tries to nefgotiate before he has to fight. Again i said i9 havent caught all of the episodes, so now to take up the rest of the word quota i will type random stuff i hope you guys dont mind.
This anime is pretty tight i think. I dont think there are vary many episodes so if you bought the dvd you might be
able to watch it in a whole day. I think the plot is pretty interesting, it keeps my attention. UH there are a couple
carecters it follows and tha6t tare in every episode. and you can get to know them pretty well. there is always a main
thin gthat happens in each episode, not just like one episode nends and then ext one the same thing is still going on.
You can feel some of the connectons between some of the charecters like dorthy and the negotiator. The genaral is a
pretty tight dood. he commands the army. witch gets smashed up by big o a couple times by accident, durring a robot
fight.The robot fights are pretty entertaining. Its mosly hand to hand, with a couple missels that come out of the
robots leg or arm or =something. each robot is different. And usually Big o wins, i really dont want to give any of the
story away, cuz one of the few episodes i watched was the last. If you catch on in the middle, its not very hard to pick
up what goin on.

Art
THe art is good i think. Well done, It doesnt have all the bright colors that some other animes have. Its more of a "old skewl" style as i call it like the old speed racer shows. It has its own style. not exactly the same as anyhting else. the backrounds, they are pretty good, Its not like some were when they are talking it only shows there mouths moving, and nothing else, sometimes there will be running people in the backround or, somethign like that, definatly movment in tthe backround. The cloths they wear are usually busness suits. LIke A formal atire. Well thats as much as i can think of right now.
Rating:
Sound
well the sound isnt the best. the starting theme/ song isnt the best,or i should say one of the worst ive seen. A siren sound and the its a just siloughett of figure in the show. it revolves and then then when it fills the scrteen a buinch oif ladies say, BIIG O. and the another figure come up and it repeats. The speech is good. the lip movement is pretty good, mostly with the words. Uh i dont recal any soundtrack. When the robot fights take place they have pretty good sound effects. LOts of creeking metal. And i think there is some music.

Presentation
Wel there is a hint of humor, you have to look for it, not the best anime, it is entertaining and it keeps me up at night/ 2:00 in the morning. I think i would recomend this show to someone who is doesnt follow anime alot and just needs somethign to keep them up at night, but thats what we all have freinds for, The show is pretty tight. They do make it easy to tell whats goin on. Like, every once in a while they peresent a charecter and then when you catch it in the middle he usually appears again. this is my first review ive done and i hope i did a decent job. and i sure hopei got my facts strait, lol, yea you guys should catch it sometime.
The show is pretty original, but the big robot battles has been done before, other than that i dont think iv heard of any other aniem or show or book or whatever have the same kind of things, lol hope im noting to vauge, but it does have a uniquness, yess. the show is sometimes how do i piut it, uhh kinda weak. Some episodes are lame and others a pretty good.

not a bad review, I probably wouldn't have given it such low ratings since I do enjoy this anime greatly, and it still airs on tv from time to time on cartoon network's adult swim.

Pretty good work at the review, could use some details to characters, but it's a good and solid start all the same.
