Quote:

In the continent of Cruzon, an impending war between the Kingdom of Krishna and the nation of Athens is brimming. The people of this land are able to wield the crystals from the ground for whatever purpose they desire. Yet one person, Lygatto Arrow, is not. He is an "un-sorcerer", a person unable to wield the crystals. But this characteristic will enable him to pilot an ancient mecha, one strong enough to put up a fight against the invading army of Athens

A really nice solid mecha manga. Nice art and good story. I just wish they adapted it into a series rather than an ova. Check it out. Got action and little romance too.

imo not enough story to go into a series IMO, unless you want them to make up battles and stuff... so they woudl have to stray too far away from cannon.

After seeing this post, I started reading the manga (just caught up with the most recently translated chapter). I like it so far. Has an interesting plot and good action. My only complaint is that the mechas all look so similar to eachother that sometimes it's hard to tell who just did what - like, was that a "good guy" or a "bad guy" who just got hit? Once you start looking a little closer though it becomes easier.

i heard anime/OVA/movie is coming out you have any info on that?

^^ All I can find is that it's coming this year. Sorry. It's gonna be a 6 part movie, 50 min each according to wiki lol.

@dchaosblade:
I got the same problem too. lol. I thought it was only me. But the last chapter was really good. Love those insane characters.

That's almost always a problem in Mecha Manga. It's a case where color might come in handy, but unfortunately...

6-part movie??? OK. If they want to call it that... Cool, though 'cause a regular movie wouldn't have been long enough to do any justice to the story.

is it really hard to tell who is who when they fight u_u .and sometime is very diffcult to figure out what happen, like they how attack and manuver.

wonder when the OVA gona come out. but movie, you dont mean they show it on cinema they wait few month to release on dvd? hell no.

I think it's gonna be like Hellsing ova imo. Not sure.

But the latest chapter, the fight with Girge was actually alot better compared to the other fights so far. That guy is a beast!
