Plastic Little
Synopsis
Ah, today let’s talk about plastic a-little. Plastic is used for many things in the modern world. It’s used for electronics, manufacturing cars, cosmetic surgery, and even breast. Yes breast, I can touch on that subject all day…What? My review isn’t on plastic? Alright, sorry ’bout that. Well since I’m on the subject, plastic is also used to make DVDs. And God bless the plastic that houses this work of art by Kinji Yoshimoto known as Plastic Little.
Review
Plastic Little is the adventure of a 17 year old captain of the Cha Cha Maru, Tita. She’s one of the roughest, toughest, tomboy heroines ever to strut her stuff in a spandex wet suit! It takes place on a planet known as Yietta where colonists make their living by exploiting the planet’s unique liquid-gas oceans. The Yiettans are about to pay off their debts to the Galactic Federation at the cost of their own planet.
By rescuing a 16-year old girl by the name of Elysse from the clutches of the military, Tita puts the lives of herself and her crew in extreme danger. All for an important computer code which they think Elysse knows. It’s a dangerous game of cat and mouse, with one crucial difference: Mice don’t shoot back, but Tita does!
The only thing that keeps Plastic Little from being an instant classic is it’s length. It just seemed that a lot was crammed into 60 minutes that’s all. They could have expanded it into a much more dramatic storyline if given maybe just a half an hour more. Heh, I guess I’m just mad because it’s over.
One more thing I’d like to mention is that I liked the sub-titled edition more than the Dubbed one. Yes I actually like anime in my own language (English) rather than one I don’t understand. I’d rather watch the show than read subtitles. So shoot me, I know it’s a sin to watch anime in English… I can hear it now, ‘you’re not a true blah…blah…blah.’ But I only like it if it’s done extremely well. I can’t stand cheap dubs. This title isn’t one of these mind you, It’s just that the subbed one has a certain flair to it that I just can’t put my finger on. In the English dub, they added accents to the characters. This may or may not be your thing. At least you can choose between both.
Okay, two more very nice things, this is just something I must address. I’ve looked through some of Kinji Yoshimoto’s art books and I must say he draws the most fabulous breast for his Females characters ever. The best breasts…hey, try saying that five times fast… best breast, best breast, besh besh, besh besh. Heh, heh see ya can’t do it.
