The Big O is a mecha anime with a refreshing change of pace from the "gundam syndrome" that was going around when it came out. It's more of a mystery / detective anime with giant robots thrown in for conflict resolution.

The story is downright amazing, it is definitely one of the best anime stories I have ever seen. The world and the characters all have quite a bit of depth to them and I thought the ending was well done.

The dialogue is great, the character interactions are very well done. Another point in the anime's favor is that the English VAs are quite good, so I highly recommend the anime whether the version you find is subbed or dubbed.

The animation is quite good and still holds up against some of the top animes of today.

Overall, this anime is easily one of the best ever made, at least in my opinion, and I don't think you can go wrong by downloading and watching it.
