I'd have to say that Vandread (1st & 2nd Stage) is one of the most unique Anime series I've ever seen.
The idea of men and women separating paths, each forgetting that one needs the other, kinda bothers me
but it is also interesting to see men and women re-discover each other. The term "Vandread" was coined
when a man's "Vanguard" (a battle mecha) and a woman's Dread (space fighter) combines to become a totally new vehicle of some sort. As you would expect from a
Gonzo production, awesome computer generated animation for the mecha and breath-taking battles in space
are the recipe for this kind of Anime. I'd have to say, aside form Rurouni Kenshin, Vandread is my
2nd favorite Anime of all time.

Vandread, Vandread. What can I say about this series?
Well, remember that phrase, that men are from mars and
women are from venus? In this series, the men are at
war with the women. The men think women are monsters
and the women think men are dirty. They have a rather
unique way of continuing their race... ^.^;
The fun starts when the women take over one of the
men's ships. Some of the men weren't able to get out
of the ship on time and is then captured by the
women... Of course, since they really don't have any
idea what the other is like, interest grows in a cute
and hilarious way! *^_^*
Of course, there are very dramatic scenes as well...
*sniff*
Anyway, this is a series well worth the time and
money. ^_^ Lots of Mecha, Action, and a tad bit of
Romance as well...
