Overview

Among the 5 star systems known as the Joker Systems, there are many kingdoms. There are knights within the kingdoms and the knights control giant robots called Headliners. Bound to the knights are fatimas. Human in appearance and mind, the fatimas (mostly female) possess expanded physical capabilities and make it possible to control a Headliner. Fatimas cannot reproduce. All this is overseen by Emperor Amaterasu and his Mirage Knights. Rather than grasp at the epic proportions of Mamoru Nagano's manga, this OAV tells a simpler story of the fulfillment of two fatimas and, perhaps, questions their traditional roles.

Review

I'll be honest with you, I have no idea what the hell this movie was about, I watched it twice. This is based on a massive series of books with an ass load of history surrounding it; so unless you know about this before hand, you'll be stumped.

I will tell you what this was very similar to in terms of style, The Meta-Barons and basically anything in the Leiji Matsumoto universe and the Outlaw Star, Star Wars epics as well.
