$47.99 @ rightstuf.com
ok so I LOVE AMAZON.com & I LOVE THE GUNDAM franchise; however everyone is correct $95 is highway robbery. So go to "RightStuf.com" the Anime~Manga devoted web site & you can buy Unicorn Vol #5 for only $47.99 ( + $8 shipping ). Sorry Amazon but overpriced is overpriced.
As far as the Series itself, Unicorn continues with Man's struggle against his constant war of self destruction all the while striving for peace. The animation is beautiful & rich keeping the action fast enough to be action while slow enough to follow it. Twist & turns abound as we continue on with the story and for every secret they reveal another question takes it's place.
Price is high but the content is worth that if you want to see Bandai back in the NA market.
Now Unicorn OVA is outstanding aside from episode 4 which was incredibly botched when it came to story. But aside from that problem Episode 5 more than makes up for it. Everything returns to form and I am quite pleased with it, there is not as much Mech combat and I appreciate the nods to past characters and the other shows in the timeline. This episode's story sets up for the two episode finale coming up. One that has released and did a review for it as well. The themes of the show Family, focusing on the past, the now, or the future is present, Then we have the Zeon-Federation conflict heading to a close, and finally some hints that some of our favorite characters from the previous entry are probably dead. The animation and music are beautiful as are the character moments especially between Marida and Zimmerman... Riddhe continues his downward descent into being the douche in the series as he finally snaps.. Bright is still here and thank god for that..
My one gripe is...
Unicorn 5
I'm a huge Unicorn fan. Getting this series made getting a Bluray player worth it. In fact its the reason I bought a blu ray player in the first place.
