Birdy herself is charming and manages to get several good lines with Senkawa. He has a good personality and reacts realistically to his situation. I can't tell if he's supposed to be a dull harem protagonist or not. The characters are a good part of this show. Also, the way Birdy and Senkawa meet in the first episode, while is rather coincidental, doesn't really seem that way due to good writing or direction or something like that. The main romance isn't annoying either (though it does progress a little too fast). One of my least favorite things about anime is the refusal to kill off main characters (and even if they do it's in the last few episodes or something), and it also came unexpected. Another cliché Birdy ignores is that it kills off what seems to be a major character very early on. In the age where all lead female and male characters are destined to end up with each other, this is definitely a relief. Senkawa has his eyes on someone else, and the one time Birdy shows any strong feelings towards Senkawa seems to be as she thinks of him as a friend, and her “buddy”. One of my favorite things about this show is the fact that Birdy and Senkawa never get any unresolved sexual tension between them. Instead, most of the plot comes from the very vague artifact simply called the Ryunka. All the problems it causes are pretty minor and typically just used for comedy. Heck, there's even a few bathing scenes, and all Senkawa has to say is that Birdy is using his body too much for just relaxing! No, the premise can actually be seen as a flimsy excuse to get Senkawa to follow Birdy around everywhere. Okay, so the premise doesn't sound good at all, but surprisingly, there's zero jokes created from the fact that a boy shares the same body with a big-breasted girl, and they can switch who's in control/who's body is up. This causes several problems for both Birdy and Senkawa of course! However, what is the Ryunka? Could it possibly be closer than Birdy or Senkawa can imagine? Expect when Birdy switches into his body to battle some villains. up for it, Birdy puts Senkawa's conscious in her body until it is fixed. Birdy Cephon went to Earth to chase a mysterious artifact called the Ryunka as an intergalactic cop, but while battling with a bad guy, accidentally kills him.
It tells the tale of Senkawa, who is in great anime tradition an ordinary high school student. It is directed by Akane Kazuki who also directed Escaflowne and Noien. Tetsuwan Birdy Decode is a remake of some nineties OVA, that being an adaption of some eighties manga, which was written by Yuuki Masami, who also wrote Patlabor. Birdy the Mighty Decode to be exact, but does it really matter?
