| Variable Geo : 2 of 5 | |

 I wish you could keep notes on Netflix so you could remember when and why you put something in your queue! I have tons of anime DVDs on my list, and I usually add them after watching a preview or reading a review. Anyway, I didn't know anything about Variable Geo, but now I've seen the short series (only three episodes, no further volumes). To tell the truth, if there were more volumes I probably wouldn't rent them, because there wasn't anything spectacular about the show. The idea seems like a goofy fantasy - waitresses enter into a fighting league where they beat the crap out of each other, and then the loser has to strip in front of the crowd! Pretty goofy, huh? They manage to pack a lot into these three episodes, including lots of bizarre opponents (all wearing variations of waitress outfits, of course), a sick brother who needs an expensive operation, a tortured child who is haunted by her mother (who lives inside the body of a mean dude who transforms into a mad man), and there's even a little pink-haired girl to round things out (and make boob jokes). Unfortunately, I just couldn't get into the characters or feel anything for them, but it was still fun to watch such a wild story (only in anime)!
