“If you have seen the TV series Fafner then you will know what is going on here. If, like me, you thought this was a stand alone movie you will likely be confused and disappointed. Apparently this takes place after the TV series ended, and if you didnu0026#39;t see the series you wonu0026#39;t understand what is happening, I sure didnu0026#39;t. There were some interesting things happening, but they were never explained, or really explored. There were some things that needed aback story which they never got, I guess because it was assumed you saw the TV series. The editing is bad, the characters would be talking in one scene and then suddenly without warning or explanation there would be a battle, huh? The only thing good about this movie is that some of the scenery was done well. I repeat if you havenu0026#39;t seen the TV series you probably wonu0026#39;t like this movie.”
