Synopsis:
In the year 2072, the world's energy problems seem solved by a network of cross-dimensional electric-field inductors—"coils"—that extract energy from a seemingly infinite source. That source is the W dimension, a fourth plane that exists beyond the X, Y, and Z dimensions. In this world, unofficial "illegal" coils harness powers that the police can't hope to counter. Dealing with these coils is the job of coil-hating repo man Kyoma, whose run-in with the unique coil android Mira leads the two to form a reluctant partnership.

This does indeed look very promising. The animation was very good to watch and the characters are interesting. Hopefully the story is going to go a lot deeper with some explanation what exactly the professor was doing and what is the hidden motive of the company.

Along that debut of the so-called 'Loser' despite he's cool, DW is rising to the top of my list ^^ cant wait for next soon
smile.gif
 
Episode 2 does indeed show that illegal coils are dangerous. The connection with the professor is slowly becoming clear as he did give Mira the instruction to find the source of the illegal coils. The company itself seems to be power mad...a hidden agenda or research which the professor found while investigation dimension W still feels to be missing..

So the numbers are very powerful coils. Looks like a hunt for these coils is going to start.
Mira and Kyoma had some very funny interactions this time. He really is a guy who keeps his cool
smile.gif
. Kyoma himself does have a disturbing past..

. Kyoma himself does have a disturbing past..yes ep'4 just got more interesting than previously, with Albert joining the chase revealed as beast of Grendel like Kyoma... the new collector Elizabeth too using cybats, on mysterious murders o'o it's like Mira is trapped in Lain's dimension

this is getting pretty good. Dimension w seems to harbor more mysteries than just deliver energy. What can summon ghosts which actually have real actions...numbers seem to really have a lot of power.

Do you remember "Ghost Hound"? Yeah, it's starting to feel like that...
 
The numbered coils really have some strange powers. As the explanation when the numbered coil was stopped suggests we are bound for even more weird things. Kyoma himself is also still a mystery. What does he know? Mira is also getting stronger. She is not a weak robot but one who can evolve into something which can make her own decisions.

Also Mira is still a mystery but hopefully its 'wind of africa' arc, can solve many questions introducing the new cast left
biggrin.gif
 
Indeed that grave really feels connected to kyoma's past. That island also seems to be the place where it all happened. Looks like the next episode will give us more answers.
Although not about Mira..

It was indeed a good flashback. It was weird when we got to see her dead body. Did they try to put a (numbered?) coil in her head? Something felt off..why does it give the feeling that it maybe connected to that weird shadow in the window at Easter island..
The power struggle within New Tesla doesn't seem to be over. Whatever happened with the research at Easter island and the strict defensive measures looks like something they will try to hide at all costs..
 
May have to check this one out... sounds like the old Atlantean pyramids, such as The Bermuda Triangle, the one off Japan, the one down in Brazil, et al... said to be no longer operational of course, but can be triggered through EM factors and whatnot.... thus people disappear, time distortions etc. They were said to be used for just this type of power accreation... and everything that energy can power of course, from health benefits to the planet's EM field reallocation, manipulation, travel etc.
cool.gif

It does feel strange that the sphere is looking for men. Maybe the scientists were not truthful about Miyabi's death. If it is looking for Kyoma, then maybe Kyoma is in for a horrible surprise about her head...Loser is also involved in Easter island and seems to have memories of it. Does he know more?
 
Wow, I was a little behind, guess that's because I watched the english dub which only has one ep out on the site I watch...didn't check for a sub, cause me likee the dub... get to watch the show without reading below all the action etc.... maybe I'm just another lazy gringo, but damn, it's nice having a dub.

In ep 1, that graphic overlay of the earth is the same as that used by the ancient pyramids, the crystal ones before the fall of Atlantean tech society and even after, only in stone... same grid points, in which we find these pyramids all over the earth, most of them buried in the earth, sea etc... time takes its toll, same as said to occur rather soon... Mother Nature resetting the game... interesting, as utilization of 'Dimension W' is just that, accessing 'free energy' from the grid points of the planet, the star, cosmos etc.... more than another dimension, whose EM signature would be incompatible at least directly, so pointless unless one wants to travel dimensionally as they are said to have done, which again, points to the danger of this kind of energy, something the Atlanteans were said to have been a weeeeee bit excessive about.... same as our elite regarding money... which equals power, control, domination... the 'dark side'....which Atlantis was, as we are today. Also interesting, is that it is said that certain objects etc of the past have been 'collected' like these 'coils'.

Maybe I'll have to check out the subs...

Neat for its time back in mid 90s unlike the film, glad this series will be on BR
