Due to her father's involvement in a weapon program, Elize Altmodisch
after his death finds herself the only person between the safety of
humankind & mad army general Gaizel's plans to conquer the earth
from underwater. Problem is that Elize Altmodisch is a 16-year old
innocent girl all alone against an army. Fortunately, when she is about
to be apprehended by Gaizel's goons, she is rescued by chaotic,
spontaneous & headstrong 17-year old Tita, captain of a Pet Shop
Hunter-submarine (Pet Shop Hunter because they hunt large sea-creatures
for pet-shops), which after many a chase & exoplosion comes in
pretty handy, when Elize has to go underwater to disarm Gaizel's
ultimate weapon. So it's the 2 girls plus the sub's crew against Gaizel
& his army, fighting their way through a fleet of armoured
submarines & through Gaizel's underwater headquarters, when the
earth's surface already starts to crumble. Of course, in the end Tita,
Elize & the fellow Pet Shop Hunters come out on top.
This anime is actually way better than its rather mundane synopsis
sounds, a movie packed, with chases on foot, underwater & in the
eair, with fights, explosions, futuristic machinery, & a little sex
thrown in just for good measure, while still running only 45 minutes.
Great fun !
