XT-8147★ 3I found out about Steel Angel Kurumi Zero after having seen the entire US DVD release of the anime, and after having read a significant portion of the manga. Needless to say, I was excited to find out that Zero contained my favorite character from the manga, Excelia. I eagerly downloaded the fansubs, hoping I'd get to see her in action. What did I get? Well, definitely not what I expected. First and foremost, the point of view never leaves the apartment that they live in. That rather disappointed me. Second, no action whatsoever. It's just a straight up drama.This could be enjoyable to some, and the original did have some drama in it, but it contained so much more comedy and action to balance it out that Zero simply lacks. Third, Excelia isn't at all like she is in the manga. She's basically in Zero in name only. Not much of a point, but given that she's my favorite Steel Angel from the manga, it's kind of a letdown. Actually, that sums it up perfectly. Steel Angel Kurumi Zero is kind of a letdown.
plumxxjam★ 5I love Steel Angel Kurumi, so of course I wanted to watch all the rest of the anime series that went with it. This was definitely one that could be skipped. SAK Zero is a prequel, but it feels more like an AU series. I'm glad this was only 3 episodes because I don't think I could have handled any more.
