With Angel Links, I think it's most fair to group up
the episodes as follows. We have episode 1, which wasn't too great. We have 2-4,
which were okay. But episodes 5 to the end really pick up and take this series
in a direction I wasn't expecting. Romances remain unsolved, it isn't a happy
ending for all involved, and it's just pulled off nicely. Based in the Outlaw
Star universe, you may remember AL crew Valeria and Duuz making an appearance
in episode 19 of Outlaw Star. If you really liked Outlaw Star, I'd
suggest giving this a try.
Spawned from the universe that gave us Outlaw Star,
Angel Links is a 13 episode series following the exploits of Meifon, her
massive chest, and the crew of the Angel Links starship as they provide free protection
from space pirates. While the show starts off fairly slow and formulaic, it's
later episodes really shine. With it's great ending I was able to forgive it's
less than stellar start. Fans of Outlaw Star will enjoy this one, though
be warned that the first half of the series is far less entertaining then it's
excellent ending.
