Summary: 15 teenagers, while playing on the beach, discovered somebody setup a secret computer workshop in a cave. The owner of the workshop claim he is the developer for a new game, and asked the children to participate in game testing. Only after they signed up for the "test", they found out that it's not just a game. The game had come into the reality. Now the fate of earth is in their hand.
Rating - first impression: 4.1 out of 5
Personal comment: Yet another anime from Gonzo. This time, however, it feels that they're on the right track to made another great anime.

Genres: magical girl/children's
I've watched: 0.6 episode
Art style: magical girl/childish
Recommended to: urr.....children younger than 8?
Summary: "slow or limited in intellectual development" - this is the defination of the word "retarded", and that's exactly what this anime is. This is either targeted for children, or the producer is mentally retarded. The typical part of magical girl anime is the transformation sequence, and I have to say this is the most retarded I've encountered. One of the transformation sequence, the character literally says "I am God" in broken English while being transformed.
Rating - first impression: Retarded
Verdict: I'm not even going to finish episode 1 before I throw it into the garbage.
