RESENTMENT

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Eureka is feeling depressed lately because the relationship between her and Nirvash has become strained. Renton is now able to pilot it without her help and Eureka takes it personally. She thought that she was the only one it would ever accept. It's left to you whether she's jealous of Renton stealing the Nirvash or of the Nirvash stealing Renton! Because Eureka clams up and won't talk to him, Renton begins to build up a little resentment of his own, which might send Eureka into a downward spiral. But this volume isn't all serious. The first episode on the disk sports a very Cowboy Bebopesque feel to it as Renton, Matthiew, and Eureka go looking for a stinky fruit said to do wonders for your health as the Gekkostate's crew is going through a little healthy diet fad.
This show is just great. It builds up the characters and plot with just enough information to keep you watching but never enough to frustrate you like some anime. Eureka and Renton seem to be growing together and becoming adults a little before their time (if Eureka is even human). The thing that intrigues me the most is what Anemone's real mission is and what exactly are Eureka and her? And what are the LFOs? The animation, voice acting, and writing are all some of the best I have ever experienced. There is still a wealth of background data to be divulged so this show has a lot of room to grow."
