This is another series that really messes up when it starts focusing on the main story. I generally prefer shows to have serialized storylines rather than just being episodic, but a bad episodic story just means one bad episode, while a bad story arc can ruin an entire show (or half a show, in this case). The shows pretty fun in the first half, with a bunch of silly characters. None of them make all that much sense, but thats okay, because everything thats happening is ridiculous and over the top. Characters that were cool and important early on get sidelined in favor of boring villains who only stay around for an episode or two before theyre replaced by the new villain in the evil organization. It sucks. A lot of people have said that the manga handles the story stuff better, and that may be true, but the mangas art is also some of the worst Ive ever seen. Not in the sense that its ugly or lacking in detail. Its just completely incomprehensible whenever theres action going on. I can honestly say the manga wouldve been better with no action at all, which is really sad for a series based almost entirely on fighting.

Sorry to eliminate three of your series in a row Iceman it was completely unintentional (I ranked the series from an alphabetized list - didn't even check who nominated them when I ranked them!).
