Comments:
I can't quite decide if I like Kurogane Communication or not. The story
isn't anything new, but that's not always a negative thing. What I like
about it is that it brings back some classic elements from old anime
like Future Boy Conan. I also like the fact that in the end, there is
absolutely nothing special about Haruka. Animation is pretty standard
throughout the show except for two style changes. It starts out unique
and then it loses that uniqueness probably because they wanted to make
it easier to animate. At that time, quality doesn't change too much
though, since the second style is easier to animate. Then, quality
starts to drop and finally, the original style comes back partially
toward the end with the animation quality also picking up a little.
I think as long as you don't expect too much from this series, it can
be enjoyed. That's not bad in my book.
See the transition distortion on the top.
