Short Outline
Renton Thurston is a 14-year-old boy who lived with his mechanic grandfather in a backwater town. When a young girl named Eureka riding a giant robot, the "Nirvash typeZERO", crash-lands and asks his grandfather for a tune-up, she inadvertently brings the attention of the military to the garage; as a result, the garage is destroyed and Renton is forced to deliver a new type of interface-- the "Amita Drive"-- to her shipthe Nirvash, crewed by an outlaw semi-mercenary team that Renton idolises and the military are chasing called Gekkostate. After a heated fight, Renton is invited into Gekkostate. However, he quickly realizes that behind the facade of a traveling group of mercenaries is a very bitter reality.

Personal Opinions
Big Big Moon
I might be in the minority here, but I really couldn't stand too much of this series. The character interactions are awkward and often forced, especially the budding relationship between Renton and Eureka. The longer the series goes on, the more apparent it becomes that in the end you're watching a 14-year-old and his surfer buddies piloting these awesome war machines with annoying kids cheering in the background and-- hey! String-laden music! Something exciting must have happened! It was terribly unfair in my mind for the writers to dangle this mysterious whiz-bang technology in front of me, only to yank it away and force me to trudge through another "Renton does something awkward and funny, guys! Remember when you were fourteen?" episode again and again. Don't get me wrong, the robots are sweet. Surfing Gundam-Transformers! I'd just prefer if a whiny kid with hormonal issues wasn't behind the wheel.
