I thought the animation was a bit choppy & bland, but the cg ship sequence was slick. Quality issue aside its on my watch list for now.
(ID #238576) Posted on 2008/07/15 22:13
Original animation was about 3 episodes I think, and it was released way before 2006. Birdy the Mighty manga was at first just one vol. and they made the OVAs based on that one shot manga. Then few years later, the current revised manga came out which are still serialized right now. I don't think I'll watch the anime sereis since I heard it's going to be 13 episodes long and I don't think that can cover the manga that much. Just a side-note, the mangaka of Tetsuwan Birdy was also did the popular Patlabor manga series.

IT, Programmer, Otaku, ...
The original OVA was 6 eps and was from 1996-1997. I had already seen the original OVA which I liked very much, so I was thrilled to hear that is was getting a full series. And even more thrilled that I got a bag from Tokyo Anime Fair with Birdy on it ^^ (one of the 6 bags I got ;p)

hm, that explains why I thought it seems pretty different from OVA, didn't know it was a one-shot manga at first. I thought it'd be so long since I watched the OVA that I mixed it up with a few other animes. I remember finding the OVA to be nothing special and was thinking of passing on this, but I guess I'll check it out and see.

This series is awesome, period. Didn't know it has a manga gonna try it later. BTW it is directed by the same director who did noein so the animation is somewhat similar, to certain ppl it might look choppy and such.

I watched the first ep and was impressed by the premise to I decided to keep up, but the animation, esp during the fight, was very poor. That doesn't bode well for the rest of the season if the first ep looksed poor in places...
(ID #238605) Posted on 2008/07/15 22:58
I really like the animation style of this, and the faces are very appealing - they look more natural than the usual samey big eyed ones you normally get! Might have to give this a try... I havent gotten into an anime series for ages.
(ID #238610) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:09
the original is one of my all time favourite anime, i can't wait to see this

For some reason, the name Birdy reminds me of Street Fighter Alpha's character Birdie. :x But I'm looking forward to this series as the premise seems interesting.

yeah. i was shocked the first time i heard of the anime, i thought " who would make a show for birdie?!?!?!?!"
(ID #238619) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:21
Looks really good to me, add this to my watch-list. Thanks for the post Danny!
(ID #238627) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:27
Animation looks good.. Will give this "birdy" a try.
(ID #238628) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:31
The animation in EP 1 seemed pretty chopped at times, but EP 2 got a lot better. The original OVA was pretty good but way too short ^^;
(ID #238635) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:54
I've seen the first to episodes and I'm going to watch to the end, looks really good.
(ID #238636) Posted on 2008/07/15 23:56
I agree with some of the others comments the animation quality is not as good as some of these other mainstays this year such as Macross Frontier and Code Geass R2. The plot mechanics certainly give me hope that it will be entertaining but episode #2 didn't look so "visually" appealing. :( Holding on for Zegapain sequel?!?!! Where is it?!?!

Thanks folks, finally got episodes 1 and 2!
(ID #238978) Posted on 2008/07/16 07:56
while the animation wasn't too great, i thought the premise behind the story was a tad more interesting. also, her doubling as a model/idol pretty much makes this a must watch hurhur
(ID #238653) Posted on 2008/07/16 00:15
Looks interesting. Added to my watch list. Thx for the info, Danny ^^
(ID #238662) Posted on 2008/07/16 00:26
You should check out the OVA. It had a far more serious tone to it, and the fights were pretty impressive.
(ID #238669) Posted on 2008/07/16 00:40

I have to say I do like the animation and chara design style. I usually try to restrict myself to 2 series a season(this season its Strike Witches and Haruka's Secret) But this does look cool.

feels like g-force but great animation nevertheless
(ID #238685) Posted on 2008/07/16 01:14
The animation for it looks wonderful! It is on my watch list, but I also have sooo many other things to watch too ._.
(ID #238691) Posted on 2008/07/16 01:27
Might add this to my watch list. Thx for sharing ^^
(ID #238713) Posted on 2008/07/16 01:55
Watching this right now,and it's awesome!!!...the animation style kind of reminds me of NHK though.....
(ID #238734) Posted on 2008/07/16 02:20
I have watched 2 eps so far, seems good. Will be an interesting story, if it keeps up like it started.

Old anime series getting to be new story,music and the drawings. It was good than the first.
(ID #238789) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:03
Looks like they're using less than 24 frames but overall it was nice!
(ID #238793) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:06
Wow, the animation is pretty nice. I think I might see at least the first episode. The OVA looks like it was made in 1996 not 2006. :P
(ID #238799) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:16
Will have to check this one out.

(ID #238821) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:47
I prefer the new one than the OVA, both are nice, but the new one is... how to say, more modern... It looks really nice. I envy you in Japan cause you have a lot of animes, here in Spain we got Naruto, Keroro and few more...
(ID #238827) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:51
Animation quality is pretty awful in my opinion.
(ID #238830) Posted on 2008/07/16 03:52
i don't know how i'm ever going to catch up with everything i want to watch orz
(ID #238857) Posted on 2008/07/16 04:30
I actually found the OP to be nothing exceptional, just a song and some animation with neither being awesome, nor bad. The ED on the other hand has crap animation with a really good song. So I think I'd have to say ED > OP n this one.
(ID #238858) Posted on 2008/07/16 04:45
This anime is done in a old school way which is my favorite way, what i mean is the animation quality. The quality is like denno coil and flcl mix(those are great as well). I would really like to see it.
(ID #238865) Posted on 2008/07/16 05:04
I definitely started watching this one when I saw hit the internets. So far it seems to have a much better story line then the OVA. I still have original OVA on VHS even though my VCR hasn't been plugged in for a while. The animation is a nice welcome change of pace compared to the more moe titles.
(ID #238870) Posted on 2008/07/16 05:13
Following Tetsuwan Birdy this season, the storyline is enough to keep me interested. I totally agree with Danny about the ED being shitty, it looks like it was done in about 10 minutes. (i don't know why my other comment never posted)
(ID #238876) Posted on 2008/07/16 05:19
Wow, you don't like the ED? Why? It's by Afromania, same author of Minna no Peace! This anime is really well done. The Animation is excellent and the story line has some tweak to it so it different from the manga which is awesome.

i dont really like this anime vuz it renew
(ID #238918) Posted on 2008/07/16 06:35
I started to watch it yesterday. The first two episodes are very nice :) There is a bit of fresh air, for now though :) I always laugh when I read the title - Birdy, the Mighty Decode :D
(ID #238922) Posted on 2008/07/16 06:38
I liked it so far. Birdy looks good even without much fanservice. The alien hunting story seemed a bit old for me and the title was funny as well but still I liked it. Maybe I should check out the ova too.
(ID #238928) Posted on 2008/07/16 06:45
You are right on the story being a bit old. It originally was published back in 1985. Classic

For some reason I realllyyyy hate Tsutomu's guts. He's annoying also (if you watch the beginning of ep 2). Is it only me or is dannychoo.com takes much longer to load nowadays?
(ID #239270) Posted on 2008/07/16 14:17
Saw the OVa and loved it. Didn't see the series yet. but will put it on my watch list now :D

Birdy is a classic! In Venezuela and a big part of Latinamerica, we watch the ovas in a channel called Locomotion, that now is Animax Latinamerica. I'm sure i will watch the new anime, the animation taste like old school but with all the good stuff of new animation. Greetings!

(ID #254424) Posted on 2008/08/02 14:42
No because i don't like when the anime doesn't follow the manga. Aniplex has changed almost everything and they still want a second season!!! I'm reading the manga but definitively i won't watch the anime.

ゆうきまさみの描く悪役には、無邪気ゆえの邪悪さというか、楽天的な暗さと言うか、 一番敵に回したくないタイプの狡猾で自信過剰で残忍で愉快な優男が多い。 それが同じ楽天的でタフで愉快で極めてノーマルなヒーローやヒロインを否が応でも引き立てる。 彼はきっと後者になりきれない前者であると同時に、前者になりきれない後者なのだろう。 善悪定かならないところで自身の創作意欲を揺らし、それによって個性的なキャラクターを生み続ける。

(ID #326729) Posted on 2008/10/08 08:11
Bumping a semi-old entry, but: I have to say I really liked the OVA more. I'd much rather have seen a continuation of the OVA (which left off quite open ended) than this, which was very different from the original. I'll prolly try to get a look at the manga sometime soon, then.
