Adventure! Iczer-3!
Episode-1: Enter, Iczer-3! Just Leave the Earth's' Defense to Me!
For those that feel they might not have the stomach for
Iczer-1
,
Iczer-3
(or,
Iczer Reborn
if you're going by the official subs), might be more up your alley.
The horror elements are now essentially all gone, the deaths, while still bloody, are alot less gory and graphic(heck, the blood itself is now pink), and there's alot less in terms of full frontal nudity.
Iczer-3
focuses almost entirely on action, and is alot less dark than its predecessor.
If that sounds as though I'm lambasting this OVA in favor of the previous one, I most certainly am not. It's merely a matter of the fact statement about the sort of content you're getting into as opposed to the previous entry in the franchise. Different flavors, but both entirely enjoyable in their own right to me. So with that out of way, what could a sequel to
Iczer-1
even be like?
The setup is that, somehow, a fragment of Big Gold escaped being absorbed by Iczer-1 at the end of the first OVA. Her name is Neos Gold, and she actually has a pretty cool design I will admit. She battles Iczer-1, and the fight ends in a draw. Neos Gold escapes, and makes way to lay waste to Earth while Iczer-1 recovers from her wounds. Iczer-1 is too wounded to intercept, so instead the Cthuwulf send out their newest android, Iczer-3, to fight off the threat of Neos Gold in the meantime. And needless to say Iczer-3 isn't anywhere near as mature as what her older sister is.
Inbetween all of that though we do get some time to be introduced to what will be our group of heroes for the show. Most notably, Nagisa is here, and she works as a delivery girl for a military base which houses the new space battleship known as the Queen Fuji.
This is actually a noticeable shake-up, too. I kinda sorta neglected to mention any of the military forces in the previous write-ups, because honestly, they really did not matter outside of like, one scene. Here though,
Iczer-3
is making an effort to give them more focus, and the Queen Fuji being a follow up to the three Fuji ships of
Iczer-1
is a nice way to highlight that.
All in all this episode really is just all setup with a decent action sequence at the end. Neos Gold's' forces make quick work of most of the Earth's' defenses, leaving only the crew aboard the Queen Fuji to combat the alien threat. And so, we have our grounds for every episode going forward.
...Oh, and Iczer-1 has new duds, too.
