    Usual start of series stuff

    Twelve-year-old Misaka Suzuhara arrives in Tokyo from the country to attend middle school, and is immediately drawn to 'Angelic Layer,' a battle game played with animated dolls. Under the skewed tutelage of 'Mr E chan,' Misaka assembles her doll Hiraku, begins playing, and immediately wins. Although she never does any school work, Misaka befriends kindergartener Hatoko, her older brother Kotaro, and his rambunctious friend Tamayo. Not surprisingly, all their socializing revolves around the 'Angelic Layer' game.

    Not bad, watchable

    I think this anime is aimed at a the younger end of the teenage market but I found the first volume was still quite enjoyable. The characters are quite interesting and there are some funny moments that make it very watchable, but the story can be a bit predictable at times since its (kind of) a sports anime. I much prefer Chobits over this series so far, due to the superior storyline and unpredictability so if your considering watching this.. I'd recommend Chobits first (even though not all the dvds are out for it yet). Even so, I'm still going to watch the next disk.
