Movie Reviews of Stratos 4 - Complete Collection
Movie Review: Easy watching -- this is a laid back, relaxing, fun series.
Summary: 5 Stars
For music there is "easy listening" and this show is the equivalent for Anime -- it's "easy watching". The creators did a really great job at making an interesting character and plot driven story that somehow manages to maintain a laid back, relaxing feel to the presentation of it.
The premise in the story is that Earth is being bombarded by tons and tons of comets and meteors. This was predicted a few decades back so a system was put in place to deal with it. It evolved into an outer space defense force that gets all the glory and acts as the first line of defense and ground based units that provide cleanup. The ground based units actually use fast-launching high-altitude jets and the story revolves around a unit of four girls training to pilot these jets.
Mikaze is arguably the main character and early on the story focus on her lackluster performance as she ponders why she is there. There are mishaps, etc. along the way and eventually some intrigue, conspiracies, and action at the end.
The series will likely *not* appeal to the teenage boy market but it will likely appeal to girls and the adult male and female markets.
