Comments on: The Third Review - 95/100 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2006/12/25/the-third-review-95100/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated.

Bogie vs. Anti Tank had me screaming and falling out of my seat but that was it. But... since your descriptive English is so damn good for a second language... I'll try Noein lol.

Gorgeous, dreamy artwork; gorgeous, dreamy music; and unforgettable characters. What more could anybody want? I think some people want a faster pace, but smash-bang-zoom-kaboom isn't what The Third is about (though it does have some great combat moments).

I've come late to it, having rented the DVDs through Netflix and their incomprehensible system of recommendations, but boy am I happy they did. The ending somewhat bothered me, though; I guess I was expecting them to change up Honoka's usual SOP of winning people/alien entities over with her awesomeness, perhaps with a more Nanoha style of "befriending"? ^_^ It's more likely I'm bitter that she and Iks got together so definitely: I admit I sincerely enjoyed Paifu's jealous possessiveness.

Maybe the second half is better, but I feel like all of the things Honoka says are things that have been said before. Such as the things with her and her important people. When I say this ninety five I was expecting to be blown away but all I can say is that this series is ok. I don't even think its on the same level as animes like noein which i loved and bokurano which i loved also.

I like to read your entries after watching each episode to catch your enthusiasm when you have it. It really is nice. The Third is now definitely one of my favorites. I adored the ending since many aspects of it aligned with my personal philosophy. I really enjoyed that Honoka empathized with the artificial intelligences. She was a very believable character - especially after her beautiful identification with Rona.

And those final 2 episodes are just awful story wise, how to ruin a good series. Tsk to any future viewers - do not watch past episode 22. Just pretend ep 23/24 don't exist. gahh ffs 2 episodes in the middle and the last 2 in the series the art is absolutely terrible.
