Armitage III Dual Matrix

 by Fat Baby          

 

Synopsis
The Bad Girl Returns! Naomi Armitage (voiced by Juliette Lewis) and Ross Sylibus have changed their names and live with their daughter Yoko as a happy and normal family on Mars - until a robot riot breaks out at an anti-matter plant on Earth. Armitage learns the riot is a plot to suppress evidence of illegal research and development of more "Third Robots" and decides to go to Earth to find out who is behind this heinous act. What Armitage discovers is the most powerful enemy she has ever encountered - replicas of herself!

Video
Presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.33:1, this transfer is as far as I can tell, absolutely flawless. Cross coloration and aliasing is non-existent, colors are spot on without being over saturated and overall I couldn’t find a single thing to complain about with it. The show makes excellent use of the digital coloring palette open to it, particularly with the sky colors.

Audio
The disc features some great choices in the audio, from the Japanese and English 5.1 tracks to the inclusion of a 2.0 English track. With the Japanese 5.1 track, the music and the action effects make most of the use of the rear directionality. But the music and action effects work extremely well with this movie, particularly the style of music. Julian Mack’s work here compliments the world of Armitage perfectly, and having it designed for 5.1 is a real treat.

Packaging
Using a raised foil for the cover, something I haven’t seen in years from my comic book collecting days, the front cover features a great looking and great feeling piece with Armitage in an action pose with a great bit of additional depth to it with the material. It also manages to use some really nice vibrant colors to give it more life and more attention while on the shelf. The back cover uses the effect as well with various pieces of artwork and design layout. Features are clearly listed as well as a brief summary of what to expect.

Personal Opinion
doomo. = hi/hello.
