I realize I've been silent for too long now. Especially in the first quarter of Zero-One.

So Horobi and Jin, the ForceRiders, have a neat aesthetic to their designs. Its full of hazard lines, strewn together haphazardly, and evokes the look of something dangerous, and I love that look. Even the sounds sound like a bomb waiting to go off, where even the peppy voice of the Progrise Keys gets distorted somewhat in the transformation, and the point of forcing them open to create their suits is just plain cool.

This show explores things a lot of other A.I./technology shows don't usually touch on, and that's that there is no clear answer to whether their evil or not. It's not saying "technology evil" or "technology is good future" but looks at both and leaves the cast to figure that out, and that's a good thing.

And good gosh did the action scenes impress. The ForceRiders in action just scream destruction, watching Horobi destroy Vulcan being one of those instances, and just the whole aesthetic with Zero-One's Finishers. Good stuff.
