Has anybody here seen this anime?

[M.P.]

I've only seen a few ads about it. Kind of want to see it.

I used to watch this on IFC a few years ago. I thought it was pretty boring and only watched it because Basilisk was on after it. It was a good concept, but i just found it to be dull.

i was considering this after i saw of course a (bodies) amv. but never was interested enouph to watch it. if someone told me it wasn't a wast of time i'd watch it.

I blame the AMV.

I've watched up to episode 6 and it's pretty cool. Henrietta is also a total badass.

I thoroughly enjoyed this anime.

The sequel was very good when watched all in one go now that it's all been released.

[Gamemaster300]

perhaps someone could tell me a little about it. (it's good) isn't detailed enouph. just a little back story. no spoilers.

In a nutshell:

Young girls who've undergone a special artificial enhancement program (usually after surviving an otherwise fatal occurrence) are trained to become super soldiers. Each of these super soldiers has a handler (who chooses how to treat/teach them based on their own personality/views).

The first season (and the better one, in my opinion), is a series of non-linear stories meant to delve into the minds and actions of the girls as well as the handlers, as well as the effects of said artificial enhancing.
