At it.

I enjoyed it. Particularly the environments.

I really like the environments, the Voicing could of been a bit better, sounds like the typical animes,
Animations are decent, im a bit happier that there's gore, that surely spices it up.

I wouldn't buy it however....... Arrr time to visit the bay again...


edit: oh fiddlesticks...

^^
Admowned.

So is there a offset time between Japanese and American release. Like with everything else from japan.

The first ep is out today.

I was unimpressed.

The plot was just uninteresting... I felt they were being dumb by making these shorts (as opposed to at least full episodes) and I was right. The English VAs didn't do as good of a job as you would hope, and though Waypoint claims that the Japanese version is also available I couldn't find it. I would have liked to get a subtitled version, to at least see what kind of effort was put behind the project (if they just skimped on the English localization or if it's lacking everywhere).

My biggest problem was with the Spartan dying. Ugh. I'm getting the feeling that the dudes who write for Halo don't really know what good character-drama is... between this, ODST, Halo Wars, and our good friends Miranda and Johnson in H3, my faith in the universe's storytelling for anything but lore continually shrinks.

Also, I couldn't tell if the buildings they saw were Forerunner, but if they were that's one hell of a break from canon. They looked more Indian or Japanese to me, but they were supposed to be "alien ruins" that weren't human or covie. Either way, they just looked out-of-place.

On the plus side: the fight with the Brute was cool and I liked that the Spartan's face/hair was completely white and barely looked human.

How'd you watch it? (Under the XBL waypoint?)

They're on Halo Waypoint.

I found it to be OK. The animation seemed a bit bad in a few places, and the overall storyline was mediocre. The environments were good. I thought the characters and how they looked pulled away from halo though. The fight scene's were pretty cool however, but the pacing of the short was slow.

One of the most things that annoyed me was the spartan. Though she did a play a good part of how the spartan acts and looks, she died pretty easily for being a spartan. Also, her hair is way to long for fitting inside the helmet, which annoyed me and is something that always annoyed me in anime. The books say the women need to keep there hair short, I recall from the first book during training.

Wtf, did this mission predate motion sensors?

and I agree, those ruins were just out of place, even for Forerunner...but whose to say the Forerunner didn't have different cultures like us?

Overall, I thought it was pretty good. The only thing that bugged me was the fact that the supposedly "Forerunner" ruins looked more Japanese-Human than Forerunner.
