Wow, just wow.

OH MY GOD THIS WAS THE GREATEST SHOW I HAVE SEEN IN MY LIFE! -Ahem- This is the show that Heroes wanted to be. A good deconstruction of super powers and the people who have them. An intelligent look at philosophical, political, sociological, and psychological effects of super powers on the rest of the world. Amazing fight scenes. Cool powers. Characters who don't have an unnatural attraction to idiot balls. The ending managed to contain all that worked in the endings of both Evangelion and Watchmen (never thought I'd mention those in the same sentence) oddly enough the particular fansub I watched had a lot of dialog in the last episode ripped almost verbatim from Ozymandias quotes from Watchmen it being a fansub I can't say for certain that they were that obvious a reference originally. I was expecting a soundtrack as awesome as Cowboy Bebop's since they had the same composer but the music here was terribly lack luster.
