Tsutomu Senkawa is an average high school kid who is busy studying for his senior entrance exams. Tsutomu goes out for some fresh air, after a hard day's work studying for a big test, when he runs into a guy fleeing from a pretty young lady. The pursued man is actually an interplanetary criminal on the run from a Federation agent called Birdy Cephon Altera. Caught in the midst of this chase, Tsutomu gets thrown by the man at Birdy, which kills Tsutomu. Fortunately for Tsutomu, there is a way to keep him alive, although it comes at the price of discarding his body. He ends up merged into Birdy's body.

XD The graphics are good (battle scene). And the storyline seems interesting (alien and human relationship). Rating for EP1: 4.5/5 The best show of the season. This is a very solid action show with an interesting premise. At first glance I thought the show would try to sell itself on fanservice due to Birdy’s skimpy costume, but there’s really no fanservice to speak of except for the aforementioned costume. Even if you don’t like sci-fi, this should be a top priority for summer viewing. Birdy will make you a believer. --Wolf Hurricane BEST SHOW THIS SEASON. The pacing and the short fights are great as well as the ED song of it. The first episode was a typical mysterious encounter of both main characters but seems a bad nightmare to the male lead. The second episode was the rather the answer prior to Senkawa's incident and problem. Overall, I really enjoy it a lot. I'll stick to it no matter what. Great animu and directing by SHAFT. --Ezil[/quote] [b]More information:[/b] [url=http://www.birdy-tv.com/]TV ANIMATION 鉄腕バーディー DECODE[/url] [url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=9287]ANN[/url] Watch it [url=http://www.crunchyroll.com/group/CRSeries_-_Birdy_the_Mighty_Decode][b]here[/b]![/url][/align]
