| Action (guns, fighting), drama, ecchi, humor, crime fighting, Girl cop type stuff although technically they are not cops, they are for hire.
This anime is very episodic. I mean many of the episodes are self contained units and don't tie into the main theme except "loosely". There is a story, but lots of "filler" episodes.

| Pros:
The setting. The idea of ocean dominates, mankind finally casued the backlash of nature. That's a very interesting idea. The anime carried out the setting very well. The people and the setting fit in perfectly, you actually think that it would make sense if that had ever happen.
Cons:
Everything else. From the crappy animation, to flat characters, to all the filler episodes. I admit, the story does conspire me and makes me want to find out the ending. However, overall, it's just lame.

| Total fanservice cheesecake ecchi whatever anime. But quite good regardless. Noone's going to give it any awards, but it's quite enjoyable. Also, it's got one of my favorite groups doing it's intro and ending, CooRie.
I dunno, sometimes I'm in the mood for some good, lighthearted fluff with blatant fanservice thrown in, and that's when I pull out Daphne. The first couple of episodes are actually rather interesting by themselves, but the anime goes downhill pretty fast and to be frank, their outfits are too distracting. Even compared to other cheesecake animes, you can't help but wonder what possible purpose the outfits could serve, and more importantly, how the hell are they staying in them?
Still, it's total fanservice, and it doesn't completely suck, and the anime has a certain sense of drama that keeps it watchable. Can you really ask for more from the genre?

| An special Investigation Squad with a bunch of girls, almost naked, solving cases...Dont let this title fool you!
At the begining I thought this series was only fanservice all around but then I discovered there´s a good character development here and cant wait to see the rest of the episodes. OP is great. Usually, I skip the op to watch the episode but this opening is really good and the music is cool...with the fanservice included. I must admit that the OP was one of the reasons why I got glued to this series, but then I saw that this is just more than that.
Even when you see this girls almost butt naked going all around, this series is enjoyable and it gives me the laughs with some of their situations...
Theres actually a good comedy / drama situation here.
Just give this series a try....You will not regret it. I saw it with some friends and they enjoy it too.

| The animation is not the best out there, but not the worse. You can tell from here and there they slacked off a bit and such. Story is not bad, but it is none the less cliche. They throw you surprises here and there but you can figure out the big picture without those detours. VC was ok, nothing special. The characters are nicely defined but not so much development except the main character. It is enjoyable to watch if you like fan service.

| Episodes 1-3 seemed somewhat promising. I found the 2nd and 3rd intriguing and a fairly decent setup, if only
episoded 4 and 5 weren't so darn weak.
Well, I think this show will end up a fanservice junk with a decent plot and characters
but overall not well enough thought out to have been worth watching.
I'll still watch a few more episodes, but 4 and 5 are pretty bad.
Episode 6 was ok. I think this isn't nearly as deep as it at first shows itself to be, and that was my initial problem with it.
I'll probably watch through episode 26 or whatever, it's enjoyable.

| The setting for this series is similar to Agent Aika and Najica Dengetsu Sakusen. World enveloped by water and such. Masaka?? Could it be...they live in the same world Hence the fanservice?!?!? Nah...
Anyway, what's up with those big ass head?!?!?! I mean they're friggin huge! Sometime they distract me from the fact that these girls have nice bodies.
Oh yeah speaking of which, what the hell are those uniforms for? Do you really need to wear those to save a friggin cat?? And how can they walk around normally around town like that? Don't people realize that they're wearing close to nothing?!?!?!?
Well aside from all those problems we actually have a good series here. Despite the fact that the fanservice is sooooo obvious, they don't actually distract from the story. This series may end up being deeper and more complex than people think. I don't believe for one second that Maiya got dumped from the Ocean Agency because of bad grades. There'a hidden agenda here so expect the unexpected.

| As most of said already, the first 2 episodes were very enjoyable. Then it just suddenly changes. You get introduced to the other 2 members of Neres through the next few episodes. The uniforms they were do look ummm...Not suitable for work?

| After watching the 2nd episode, I would have to say this anime is exciting, but it gets kind of old. The battle in episode two was not even a battle, and the chase scene was boring, although one up on the music. Although I enjoy the costumes in it, I often find myself asking why? It never crossed my mind that a bunch of girls, work alot better in half thongs battling crime. Also it is too predictable, so anything they try to throw at you is just an old thing already used. Possibly when more characters are introduced the anime will get alot better. It just needs some tweaks, some explanations, and some character devolpment. And is it just me, or does the branch guy look awfully like Adolf?

| While this anime certainly isn't original, it's quite entertaining. If you don't agree with fanservice, this series is not for you. The costumes used by the girls are skimpy, to say the least. They are also drawn with confusingly little consistence. Depending on cituation the costume parts can be covering a lot of skin or not. Inconsistency is something I dislike in anime. Unfortunalely it's very common.
The story is entertaining. Still, I expected an explanation of the costumes right away. Now I don't think we will ever get one.
After watching three episodes I have to say I enjoyed the second most. It had the most fanservice and a lot of action. The first episode seemed to set up a different story. Well, this is a 24 episode anime and I don't really know how well it will do but right now I will continue to watch the series. Let's see how this developes. The opening animation is great.

| To me this series stands in direct concurrence to Mezzo DSA and and it looses out quite a bit ..maybe i expected too much by the name JCStaff (?)
(no of course i don't think they are very similar, but they are both fresh action series playing today, thus not in concurrence to naruto/fma/pmk..)
It's not bad, as its nothing special it could at least have been 'good craftmanship' ..well, then not. I will most likely continue to follow it, but not the anime i really hurry up to get and watch asap.
