![Alien Nine [DVD] - Picture 1 of 1](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/f7kAAOSw8w1X~Zyp/s-l500.jpg)
10/10. Alien Nine is such a fantastic and extremely underrated OVA. Anime fans of cult shows like Serial Experiments Lain will really appreciate a series like Alien Nine. The last 3/4 of the OVA was directed by Yasuhiro Irie, (Director of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) and it shows in more ways than one. The characters are complex, and their designs are really unique. The animation is very high quality and has really aesthetically pleasing color schemes. The short sequences of 3D in the animation look a bit dated, but the incredible 2D makes up for it entirely. The soundtrack is also amazing. Alien Nine really succeeds in catches you off guard. Some of the visuals are extremely disturbing, in very subtle ways. This show and it's imagery stick with you long after you've watched it. This may not be every anime fan's cup of tea, but Alien Nine is one of my favorite series of all time. Also, this show is not for kids.Read full review

Funny are Yuri's reactoins as she is rail-roaded into the role of "class protector" against the constantly invading aliens and very reluctantly joins in the daily fight. Twelve year-olds are assigned to fight dangerous alien invaders, become hosts for symbiotic aliens, and in general put their lives at risk while the adults critisize their performance. This is the disturbing part. This anime shows superior writing and character development. Great character design on the aliens. The art and animation are very good.
i know this is a bit of an odd alien invasion story
