Story

Pros: Proper introduction | Smooth storyline

Cons: No major problem spotted…

The episode starts off with a brief introduction about the story background and then continues with the encounter with enemy unit, main characters introduction and battles.

Cramping everything in 28minutes seems to be a bit reckless but everything turns out to be really nice and it works perfectly as the preview of the TV series of “Sky Girls”. It’s just like giving a quick summary on what “Sky Girls” about.

Points: 29.5/40
