Metal Fighter Miku

Metal Fighter Miku is a straightforward action show, the kind that leans on a fighting premise more than on rich psychology. By our assessment, its appeal is in the simple energy of anime combat and the directness of a series that knows what it wants to do. The downside is that this sort of title can stay thin if the characters and worldbuilding do not do much beyond the basic setup. In practice it has the brisk, episodic feel of genre TV that moves from one confrontation to the next. It sits in the broad middle of action anime rather than among the especially memorable names. Metal Fighter Miku is fine for viewers who want a clean genre run; it is not the place for anyone seeking depth first.
