Just seen episode 1. Granted that the mecha designs are kinda "WTF" just like how i thought the LFOs were when i laid eyes on them, but i think it will grow on people.
I don't know when the show takes place, but it definately is the future. There seems to be a highschool which trains up pilots or something....i dunno...the student council seeem to be important people in the military or something.

Well anyway, genki teenager boy sees a pretty girl at the school pool, she jumps into it and he follows suit and can't find her in the pool. Ghost maybe? (I'm reminded of Mishima Reika of Rahxephon) So like suddenly she appears to him again, teleports him to the pool again where they jump in and he suddenly appears in a giant robot, The ZegaPain. SO naturally main guy has some hesitations, but before he knows it, he's kicking butt with the robot while the commanders watching from a distance comment on his greatness. (ho hum)
The mecha in the series seem to have a weird green crystal as the main torso with limbs coming out of it. Somewhat like Z.O.E, it can materialise weapons out of thin-air with a sorta "digital" effect. There are computer-related terms thrown out like "Tokyo Server" which might hint they are in a virtual computer world. *shrug*
Not much can be said about the show yet, but its action scenes and CG were alright.
