Episode 1: Crimson is the Sound of Dawn
Oh man, this show drew me in right away.
I figured it would, as from the trailer I could tell that it had alot of aspects that I tend to love whenever they pop up in stories.
So what's this about?
Metallic Rouge
takes place in a future where humans have cultivated Mars, and live together with androids known as Neans(Neons?). The Neans are very much second class citizens, bound to forever serve humans.
But there are those who have started to break free of their oppressive human programming, and try to live their lives as they see fit. Among these are the Immortal Nine, a group of Neans that the government wants put down, and as such have our main character, Rouge, to execute them.
The plot setup alone is enough to have me intrigued, but episode 1 showcased alot of things that had me almost completely sure that this was show I'd be into. From the art style and colors that evoke a mid-2000s anime, to the heavy atmosphere of mystery and intrigue, I was hooked, and the first episode does a great job at world build and showcasing the baseline of what you're in for.
Despite being the target for takedown, Viola's' plight is very sympathetic and sad. Her plea as Rouge kills her to really examine the relationship between Humans and Neans was great, and it being set among a pretty solid action scene only elevated it. As seen with the Nean who gets his life blood stolen, and then thrown away as soon as his batteries run out showcases, Neans have it rough, and you're very much meant to sympathize with their plight.
That said, I also don't know if the show will give me a whole lot to talk about. Atleast if the show is structured like how this first episode was. But hey, this is only the introduction with which to lay the groundwork, so there's plenty of time for some surprises. As is though, I liked what I saw, and I look forward to more.
