this has game version and anime version...i wanna know the anime version got how many part? what's the title?

IIRC only 2 arcs were animated:

ZoE: Idolo

ZoE: Dolores

Idolo is a fairly short OVA which is played as pretty straight forward tragedy. It recounts the events leading up to the Deimos Incident tragedy.

Dolores is a 26-episode TV series set several years after Idolo and represents an interesting take on the universe from the POV of a family trying to stay together in face of socio-political events mostly out of their control. The tragic protagonist of Idolo, Radium Lavans reappears as the baddie in Dolores.

edit: For the record, I think this is a vastly underrated franchise that deserves far more attention than it is getting. IMHO Gundam fans suffering from bishounen plot armour and haro fatigue will find the well thought-out politics and highly detailed universe of ZoE comparable (if not superior) to that of the golden era of U.C and certainly miles ahead of the newer alternative Gundam stories

ZoE: 2nd runner aka Anubis: Zoe of Enders is a video game. Chances are you saw the cutscenes from the game.

The anime is sort of old... and it didn't have the awesome cell shaded mech art/graphics like the orbital frames did in the game.

But ZOE still has the bestest mech design ever. <3 Orbital Frames.

The pilot cockpit located at the robot's cock = phailed.

But still the design of the mech looks better than Kurogane no Line Barrel eventhogh same designer.

Since when it was cel shaded in the game?

Anyway didn't hear good reviews about the anime so i didn't bother with it.....is it as good as kintaro said?

i lost count on how many round i play that game
naked jehuty anyone?

ps2 game...

wah...same designer as linebarrel..so different...the anime? why i saw the 2nd runner...should i buy not? anyone know where got site i can watch or download the anime?

ZOE was my favourite game of all time, and Idolo is a good complement OVA to the games. I haven't seen Dolores yet, actually.

Don't diss the cockpit design. I feel proud controlling a phallic mecha that symbolizes a man's burning spirit as a whole.

C'mon Kojima, make ZOE3 already!

2nd runner is the ps2 game the 2nd instalment.. i only kno the idolo & dolores series... other then that donno... 2nd runner got anime meh?

i dont know wor..i saw it at popular bookshop rm42.90. i have a feeling it is cutscreen from the game...cos i go Cruncy roll see. there got no fight scene..only story and dialog...and their conversation also like game's

ya. i know...but it's so nice even it's not actually an anime T^T what can i do? anyone know anime version? where got sell? preferably in melaka

That said, Vic Viper is best design evar.

WRT Dolores: IIRC, the animation quality was only so so and obviously on a limited budget. If you are watching the anime for the mecha, IMHO the only really cool looking one is Anubis (makes a cameo towards the end). To me, given the weird design, I don't really care about the mecha, but enjoyed characters and the sense of world-building that goes on in ZoE. It's in all the little details that make the show interesting for me and impressed me that there was a lot going on in the background (that didn't necessarily relate to the main story). This is what science fiction is all about, and not just getting from plot point A to B. Perhaps I am in the minority, but if you catch my drift, then you should pay more attention to the series.

ZOE > gundam
and gundam is freaking overrated

there is a lot of mecha design better than gundam

ZOE is a very good example
vandread is also another example

Not to mentioned the Boobs Burst size is huge. I think the hardest part was cleaning the AI Virus while saving the cockpit pilot trapped inside.

Anyway this is my favorite game after Armored core.

I remember breaking every finger on both hands playing it... Indeed my fav game after Armored Core as well

lolz
u should try damaged jehuty on hardest difficulty with no subweapon attached

Human ver. of Dolores in Idolo OVA = FTW!
No wonder hero went emo and killed all the space navy O.F. at the end of ova.

That silver haired girl in the siblings in Z.O.E ova =also FTW.My type of tsundere girl.

ZOE 2nd runner heroin =FTW coz her big boob.nuff said.

Dingo remind me of Dante from Devil May Cry(light brownish skin and white hair.Can be humor sometimes).

ZoE is just story mode or got versus mode? like can play versus frens or with frens?
