Anime: Birdy The Mighty Decode

A weird title for a weird anime, Birdy The Mighty Decode came from the same author Masami Yuki who also wrote the long running Patlabor series and in turn becomes an amazing anime too. This particular series has a continuation story which will be aired in January 2009 and that very well explains it's 12 episodes without a variable conclusion...


Birdy Cephon Altera is a Federation agent chasing interplanetary criminals to the planet Earth. While in pursuit of one, she accidentally kills a high school boy named Tsutomu Senkawa. Fortunately for Tsutomu, there is a way to keep him alive, although he ends up merged into Birdy's body and must remain so until the repair of his body is complete. So Tsutomu is stuck sharing a body with an attractive, strong space police agent, while trying to keep his family and friends from finding out about about Birdy. In the meantime, Birdy continues her investigation. Together, they take on a secretive group of evil aliens planning to perform experiments on the unsuspecting inhabitants of planet Earth.


The old switch-a-roo has become another series but with a bit of futuristic twist of fighting aliens and extra-terrestrial beings becomes one is what I would describe about this anime. Yet to fully watch this anime yet so I'm still in the daze of whats to come... In any case, if you do like Patlabor, you'll bound to like this next new series by Masami Yuki.
