When I first saw that this series was available to watch on Funimation's YouTube channel I nearly didn't bother with it as I prefer my anime in Japanese with English subtitles but only the English dub was available... I'm glad I put my doubts to one side though as the dub is rather good; of course it helped that it isn't set in Japan so American accents don't sound out of place. The series opens on the planet Sandvil where Federal Investigator Angelica Burns goes to prevent a criminal known only as 'Mister' from breaking out of jail. Unfortunately for her the breakout goes ahead and she spends the rest of the series in pursuit of him. She isn't the main protagonist though; once he escapes from prison Mister becomes the protagonist and we follow him and his gang of criminals aboard the Coyote as they fly to the planet Graceland to retrieve the treasure buried there by the late Pirate King Bruce. To make matters harder for Mister and his gang they must complete their task in a week as the planet is about to be blown up! To make matters even more interesting Mister isn't the only person heading to Graceland; Madame Marciano and her 'family' of twelve robot sisters are going there too; not for treasure but to kill Mister! All this means there will be a great confrontation at the end.
I was surprised just how much I enjoyed this series; the plot may be basic but the action is good and the characters are a lot of fun to watch; Mister is a great protagonist, Angelica and her sidekick Chelsea were fun and what's not to like about a group of twelve Gothic lolita robots?! As it is only twelve episodes long the series doesn't overstay its welcome; in fact I was left wanting more. The animation looked good and the English dub actors sounded right for their parts and didn't sound too 'cartoony'. As there is neither excessive violence nor obvious fanservice the series is suitable for most ages although there is a little bit of swearing, which some parents might not approve of. If you've not seen it yet and are looking for a humorous series with plenty of action I'd certainly recommend checking this out.
