I was lost at the beginning (darn similar hair colors), but the gag of headhunting goons to be bested by a hero was pretty fun all said and done. I was very bemused by the scaling down that the multiple beaurocracies subjected the thunder bird to- from Mecha Phoenix to chicken with a water pistol. The institutionalized incompetence made my day, as did the hero commenting on its poor design just after the whole organization celebrated the collaborative success of its creation.

Also, is it just me, or is the line art on the character faces strangely sharp? Like, 'make plain characters seem cute' sharp. This isn't a great looking show, but there are some suspiciously nice looking shots...
