Elemental Gelade

Elemental Gelade is another anime of the fighting subgenre. This time women are used as weapons. Creates quite an image there but they aren't grabbing ladies by the toes and swinging them like louiseville sluggers, or are they?

In truth, the Edel as they are called have a gem called the titular "elementla gelade" (I thought it was a kind of fluffy desert, so sue me). The Edel can find a human, whom they call a "Pleasure", and bond with them. When they do the Edel turns from a pretty girl into an outlandish weapon and the fight is on. I still think this is a more moral situation than the whole pokemon situation since in theory the edel chooses to bond and fight. I say in theory because there are a lot of people who want funky super girly weapons so there are bounty hunters and such and the life of an edel is never really nice.

Our hero is a young, brave sky pilot who accidently activates an edel who is powerful and the last of her type. She hates humans but there's something about him (maybe cause he tries to see her as a person and not a gatling gun with boobies) that she likes. They bond and then gather allies and fight. We've seen this all before, but this one is fairly nice and I like the world with sky pirates and floating islands.
