Transcript of Featured Review

Hey guys. I'm here to review 009-1 which is an epic anime series as you can see. A little bit of fan service here which is rated TV mature and comes out from ADV Films. This story is based on in a world where the cold war has never ended. East and West continue to battle for technological and political supremacy. Mylene Hoffman field commander of the elite 00 Organization exists in a world with her eyes open and her body always ready to do battle. She puts the intelligence to intelligence agent and her body into body of evidence. With her a benevolent scientist tagging along with would be monsters slayers meeting her match in the worlds most hardboiled assassin and navigating a daily library at the pores and all of these work for Mylene. There is no problem she can't solve. The proper application on explosives fast talk the shuffling german makeup the bright moves pry closed doors. Imagine this series almost like Alias on Fox I mean in animated form. And of course the interesting thing about anime form would be you can pretty much do anything. You can jump out of building than do several twirls in the air and not miss a beat. Now whereas in a live action series you do something like that it can come out looking extremely cheesy fake because obviously that's what we know what it is. But in anime this comes out extremely well. It's a very exciting series well written very creative and just a different spin on what you technically usually see on an anime. They have cute scenes but it's not too cute scenes. Pretty serious takes itself pretty seriously. So there you have it. 009 this contains the episodes one to four so this is the first disc in the set and it's extremely interesting and I would highly suggest it.
