As Michael said, it's not Gainax.  Gainax means jiggle, and that's not 
what they do.  They just have CHICHI so OOKI that I can't believe they 
can zip up their flight jackets.

Hitoshi's right.  Sakura isn't that cute, which kinda bums me out.

Is it?

You know them all?  I wasn't paying attention to them very much.  Some of 
them looked familiar, but I wasn't going to pause the tape just for that.

What do you mean?  I think Blue Morris had a better character design than 
most of the girls.  The show wasn't that great on cuteness anyway.

I didn't like the OP at first, but then it started to grow on me, and I 
could groove to it.  ^_^

The story is a little disappointing because it ended kinda lame.  It was 
kinda predictable to me.  But I really liked the spaceships.  I think 
that the designers are really creative for coming up with ships that look 
like girls AND have a female "brain" (like Tsunami in TM!).  Rain is 
mondo cool, in that she's a water-based ship.

They were silly looking to me...  ^_^;;

Maybe you're right.  I think that seiyuu can stay here, but you can't 
split up the other stuff.  There just isn't enough to talk about for cute 
garage kits, for instance.

Man, I only understood about 50% of what was happening in the anime.  The 
CDs would be even worse for me.  If it wasn't for a Japanese native 
giving a live translation of events, I would have never have gotten most 
of it.  To be honest...  I don't think Yuna does much for me.  I know, 
that's blasphemy if you're a cute fan.

> Should have gone to the event.. (;_;)
> Yuna is my favorite Chisa role.

Tsunami's my fav!!  At least in the anime, the manga is sloppy with her 
char design.  "If Tsunami was bubble gum, it would be called Babe-alicious!"

(Minerva.  FYI: Minerva is the goddess of wisdom, which is funny since 
she's a total airhead in the show.)

I can't remember.  I think that she was cute.  But I still like Blue 
Morris, because she has the coolest outfit.  In my stupid opinion.

> I prefer Iczerlion to Evangelion..

I hope you mean in terms of cuteness!  To me, Iczelion gets a big zero for
most things like "plot" or "character development" (and especially "idol
singing"), but it got high marks in terms of kawaii otome.
