Gunslinger Girl, ep. 09-13
Mon, Sep. 18th, 2006 10:24 pmWow, short series!
The next few episodes largely continue like the first eight did; there's a bit of a continuation between a few of the episodes, but it's not exactly a plot arc. There is, however, an understated emotional arc on the effects that the conditioning and the dysfunctional fratello-cyborg relationships have on the girls. It actually reminds me a little of Spooks/MI-5 in that way. There is a bit more of a plot in the end, since Section One (the non-cyborg section) is trying to discredit Section Two (the one with the girls), which reminds me even more of Spooks.
( Spoilers )
In conclusion, a series that starts out a little slow but ends up being very good and very touching in its thirteen episodes.
