I saw the 1st episode at a friends place and then I had to get the set, for me its a hit or miss and this was defiantly a hit. The show has a rich story, jumps around abit but thats the normal from some other series I've seen going from past to the present yet they dont quite let on all the details till the end course if your smart enough you can pic two and two together.
Now without spoiling anything, my only complaint is the case it comes in, nothing like another packaged series where the dvd's are stacked on one another.
Just note there is quite abit of blood, human decapitations and like wise nudity.
A good short series as it was, the extra directors cut addition on dvd6 makes it worth while however the sale price is a tad more then what its really worth. Still none the less a good buy for those who are into Mecha (or this case bioengineering Mecha) let alone since-fiction.
However if you can not stand the sight of blood, some gore, Violence, this may not be for you.
