Zone Of The Enders: Delores - Vol. 5 - Episodes 19-22 And (DVD 2003)

Yey! Go Dolores.
This has rapidly become one of my favourite anime series. Avoiding the sometimes over seriousness that can permeate the genre. This show manages to balance that with a good dose of comedy. I suppose ultimately that this is not just a giant robot program, with the core of the series being the search for the lead characters missing wife and his attempts to rebuild his relationship with his children. All the while trying to keep the giant robot which has come into his possession (and now considers him to be its uncle) from the hands of nefarious men. The fact that the robot has enough power to destroy an army does help though this is offset by the the personality, which is about that of an 8 year old girl.
Though the soundtrack is nothing amazing, the artwork is good and a strong unfolding storyline keeps you interested, along with the well developed characters. Even the support characters are well done.
For those whoe enjoyed Full metal panic or Dai guard. Or simply like their anime with a balance of good fight scenes, comedy and well written story.
