Synopsis

Centuries ago, mankind abandoned planet Earth after the Vice, a race of mechanical aliens, drove them from their home into a life adrift in space. Now resigned to starships forged of pieces of Earth’s shattered moon, the final hope for humanity lies in the hands of Actresses, young women born with the ability to wield the only weapons that can harm the Vice: Alice Gears, mechanical suits that can finally turn the tide against the alien incursion.

Audience Consensus

Alice Gear Aegis is a fun, lighthearted show with strange humor and cute girls. However, the final episodes and certain plot elements feel out of place and detract from the overall experience. Despite its flaws, the show is generally enjoyable for its unique charm and weirdness.

Strengths

  • Fun romp with cute girls doing weird things
  • Strange, weird, subversive humor keeps jokes from getting stale

Weaknesses

  • Questionable production values
  • Final two episodes spoil the show
  • Evil Chihaya plotline feels out of place
  • Lack of focus on other characters
