Boo~
Still lazying around at home, don't have the motivation at all... =( Recently just watched Mai Otome and Mai Otome Zwei, borrowed them from Matt after finishing Mai Hime. Although both series isn't really related, but somehow there are similarities here and there...
Mai Hime, I would say it's an old series by now, not sure how long ago. =p Basically featuring a group of girls having special powers from a star, those girls can materialize weapons as they need them to fight against the evil and a cursed destiny awaits them. In this series, friendship and love is emphasized a lot and of course, it ends in a happy way, good people get to live on a great life, bad people just stay away and back to where they belong.
For me, the beginning of the show is quite boring, that's why I stopped watching after 2 episodes when this series is newly released. As all the characters slowly develops, the story became more interesting, seeing how they unite and fight to protect their school. The later part of this series is the best, in my opinion, where all the girls are forced to fight against each others and how Mai tried to stop the battle and end the cursed destiny. It's a bit fake for the ending but there's nothing much that can be done, right? XD
After finishing Mai Hime, I am interested to see how the story goes for Mai Otome, which starts with a total new storyline but uses the characters and some power from Mai Hime. Again, it involves a lot of girls (lol), and the power source of this series are nano machines and Otome (Girls with nano machines) uses a gemstone to control their power to materialize weapon and armor. According to the story, the Y-chromosomes will react with the nano machines and cause them to malfunction, so Otomes can't have sex and naturally guys won't be able to have the power. =p
This series is faster in story development, thus it's interesting from the start to the end and even the OVA - Zwei is pretty much action packed. There are some comedy and love here and there but the story mainly focused on explaining how Otome powers came about and what kind of technologies are there in their world. This series shows more on what power can do and how it changes or shapes people, it involves different countries around the world, not only a school.
I personally prefer Mai Otome over Mai Hime and I feel this series is worth watching and collecting to watch again some other time. =) Both series have 26 episodes and the OVA (Zwei) has 4 episodes, thanks Matt for borrowing them to me. XD There's another OVA series coming up right? I saw the preview at the last episode of Zwei.
