Plot Summary
Sixteen years have passed since a mysterious alien ship crashed on Earth. Graviton City, once leveled by the ship's crash, is now a bustling metropolis. Within the city's high school, superhuman high school student A-Ko Magami dukes it out with the diabolical genius B-Ko Daitokuji, who will stop at nothing to win the friendship of A-Ko's buddy C-Ko Kotobuki. Meanwhile, in outer space, another alien ship is on course towards Earth to find its planet's lost princess.
My Thoughts
The Project A-ko movie series is all about the hilarious rivalry between A-ko and B-ko. It's very cartoony with moments of exaggerated expressions and such. It's crazy with the alien race of women who look like men. If you're a sci-fi fan you'll love the mechs. It's fun to watch. I recommend it if you're in the mood for something with humor and cool fights.
