Wow... this anime really left me, well, speechless.
I picked this anime up Sunday night and watched the first 2 episodes then. Yesterday night, however, I watched it again from the beginning and all the way through.

I was very shocked at how great this anime is, since I had never heard of it before, and was only drawn to it by the title and box cover (ah, I'm a sucker for these things >.<; ).
All I can say is that I really, really enjoyed this anime, and in fact, it became one of my favorites.

Since this is the creater's first attempt at a sci-fi anime, and is sheerly "independent", this anime won't be advertized very much.
You can say that this was a "first" of this sort for GONZO, and maybe that's why the anime is so short (only 4 OVAs).

However, this anime really excels in every point, IMO. The story, although complex, is explained greatly and has an excellent pace.
The characters are also designed very well. The dark colors used for the scenery, and overall story, really set the mood for this action/drama anime.

The only things I wasn't very fond of were the ending and the integration of CGs into the story. Maybe if the serie had been longer, it would have been better.

; So, yeah... anyone seen it ? If not, you should check it out, as it's really a very good anime... I recommend it !

What's that Sniper? I've never heard of it, but from your words it seems very good stuff! Is it only 4 OVAs you said... hmmm... pretty short... I'll try watching it if I have the chance!
