![]() After watching the TV series, then A Contact I would move to Be Invoked and felt a sense of satisfaction that this journey was worth the work. I really, really, really and truly love this movie and what it did for me. There is nothing wrong with cutting out the fat so they say, but when you cut into the meat as well it can leave you a little hungry. Though for those of you who have yet to see the Ideon TV series I would highly recommend diving into the 39 episodes that were produced as you get a little more background. Retelling the first two thirds of the series in a condensed structure makes the movie move quite fast, but I would still recommend viewing it as there is nothing wrong with reviewing the events leading up to Be Invoked. There is nothing new here if you are already familiar with the TV series. Truly a concept beyond it’s physical package.įirst let’s look at A Contact. All of this from the origins of a simple toy sponsored show with funky disco derived fashions. ![]() Perhaps the energies to keep the cycles of life and evolution flowing, continuing and growing. Perhaps the embodiment of the universe itself as neither good nor bad, it just is. These are acts of nature, an act of whatever name you want to call the deity, or the ultimate power of the universe. ![]() The Ideon robot, for me, is the most terrifying machine… EVER! The Ideon is not so much a robot and the Ide energy is more than spiritual mumbo jumbo. Tackling issues of xenophobia and higher cosmic metaphysics around a large cast of characters that go through a story that is beyond the sublime. For Space Runaway Ideon, the ending was completely cut and rushed leaving a universe of questioning what just happened? Two years later the missing pieces and a proper ending would emerge in the theaters as The Ideon: A Contact and The Ideon: Be Invoked.įor my money Ideon is the ultimate super robot tale, maybe even the most amazing space opera I have experienced as well. The first was that little show he did a season previously called Mobile Suit Gundam, though that was more a refinement of the overall story. This would be the second production in a row where Yoshiyuki Tomino would go back and retell his story again after early cancellation. How often do we get to have a second chance? Have you ever had an idea, a story or a project that was meant for a bigger promise and an even bigger finale? Often times some stories, be it anime or otherwise, get a premature conclusion.
