As
the war between Earth and the Wulgaru forces continues, the Majestic
Princes or MJP (a.k.a. Team Rabbits/Fail 5) continues to prove
themselves above and beyond duty with their ever evolving ASHMB mecha
units. That they are the only ones who have been effective in
defending, repelling and even defeating the enemy on their own
grounds, but with each victory, their next mission becomes more
dangerous and they never know when their next mission will be their
last in the exciting Anime series Majestic
Prince: Collection 2
(2013).
Izuru,
Asagi, Kei, Tamaki, and Suruga are the Majestic Princes, a group of
genetically altered children created to pilot the prototype ASHMB
units. The ASHMB units are powerful experimental mechas, each one
tailored to their talents. Originally called team 'Fail 5', they
were considered test subjects and failures. Suruga is an weapons
freak/sniper, Tamaki is their heavy artillery, Kei is their
communication and information scout, Asagi is their close combat
expert, and Izuru is their leader. Izuru's Red 5 in particular has
been evolving at a exponential rate and has captured the notices of
both friend and foe, that some want control it and other would like
to see it destroyed. They are joined by a new ASHMB member Ange.
Together, they fight to protect the Earth from the Wulgaru, a race of
aliens who live by combat that the strongest have rights of
'harvesting' genes of other races.
This
series is your usual standard anime sci-fi space opera. Full of
action, adventure and mechas (and makes Stars Wars space battles look
like child's play). As usual, a group of teenagers must become the
heroes to save the world in their mecha/robots. My only complaint is
they should of released it as a complete series instead of 2 parts,
but maybe we'll see such a set later.
The
1080p 1.78 X 1 digital High Definition image is top rate throughout,
while the lossless DTS-HD (MA) Master Audio 2.0 Stereo has decent Pro
Logic-like surrounds and is pretty warm from show to show. There are
no extras.
