Eureka seveN encompasses everything I love about anime. Romance, drama, action, science fiction, giant robots surfing while blasting guns and wielding blades at each other to drum and bass music. I mean, what's not to love? All of this framing a story of political conspiracy, morality, and religious dogma.

Renton Thurston is a typical kid, begrudgingly dealing with mediocrity while dreaming of making it big as a lifting pro (surfing+ether). His father, Adrock, apparently died saving the world, and while that's gotten him some notoriety, Renton laments the attention and doesn't quite measure up to his father.

One day, a giant robot, an LFO, lands quite literally in his back yard and his life is turned upside down. Renton goes on an adventure of a lifetime, learning about life, love and the truth about his world.

Eureka seveN is a gorgeous adventure anime, focusing on Renton and his romantic interest in a mysterious rebel LFO pilot named Eureka, as well as the exploits of her band of comrades known as Gekko State.

If you like adventure, action, giant robots, romance, and music, Eureka seveN is a fantastic watch. And if you're like me, the story here will resonate with you for life.

I can't recommend it enough.
