(One episode watched): This episode did an excellent job of making me hate certain people. Episode one seemed to be largely a prologue for the main plot, as the poor orphan Hana is driven to the brink of endurance by the cruel family that has adopted her. At the end Hana meets Michiko, a strange, dangerous woman who may or may not be her mother. It's looking like Hana will be the main character, and the story will be told as she sees it, which seems like a good idea to me. We know very little about Michiko, how she became a criminal and wound up in prison. Her escape was well thought out and interestingly animated. I recall little humor from this episode but I'm very curious to learn where things will go now that Michiko and Hana have been reunited. So, too soon to say for sure how good this will be, but so far so good. Last updated Monday, October 20 2008. Created Monday, October 20 2008. | ||||||||

If you enjoyed the series El Cazador de la Bruja, then you might want to check this one out... Two girls on the run in a lawless land reminiscent of a northern Mexican territory or post-apocalyptic southwestern state. In any event, the character of Michiko is one bad-a** lady! Much fun. The first episode is an introduction of the characters - grand thrills, gun fights, action and harshness (especially in the case of Hana's adoptive family.) There is mention by someone about the 'latino music' chosen for this series. My comment is latino? What latino music?? Apparently they chose to use the eclectic electric jazz music of ↗Soil & 'Pimp' Sessions, which while being different, does add a lot to the series (if you are into horny and brassy jazz - did that come out right?) In any event, I am amused and am looking forward to the next episode. (and here is a set from Soil & 'Pimp' Sessions) Last updated Saturday, October 18 2008.
