Nadia is a series that was, oddly enough, cursed by success. It was originally slated to be a show in the 24-26 episode range, but because it was so popular, the network ordered another 13 episodes to be made. However, the team that made it didnt really have the resources to make another 13 episodes, so those were all outsourced, and theyre...really bad. Thankfully, I watched this in the age of the Internet, so I just skipped those episodes with no ill effects. The rest of the show is pretty good! The quality still varies from time to time, but Nadia herself is pretty cool, and the rest of the cast is alright too. It does still have a lot of meandering episodes that dont go anywhere, as old long shows are wont to do. The most memorable episodes to me are the ones just after the block of filler - the team seems to have taken the extra 13 weeks to make them extremely stylish and cool. It feels like those episodes were made 10 years later or something. Its probably the worst original Gainax anime, but thats not a particularly bad title to hold.
