Plot Summary: Next in the four-part Marvel Anime project and broadcasts after the Iron Man anime. Wolverine is a mutant, possessing animal-keen senses, enhanced psychical capabilities, three retracting bone claws on each hand and a healing factor that allows him to recover from virtually any wound, disease or toxin at a accelerated rate.
And that's the tragedy of this OVA. When given the budget for a video episode, instead of continuing the story past the abrupt yet rather promising end of the TV series, the series' creators decided to provide a side-story detailing more of Jo and Meg's frankly uninteresting back-story. It fulfills exactly the expectations raised by the television series: Jo runs around shooting crap and raising hell, a bunch of stuff explodes, there's a nifty mecha brought to life with the "Gonzo Special" brand of 3D CGI, a lot of people die in unpleasant ways, and there's a faint whiff of shoujo-ai in Meg and Jo's partnership. It also fulfills some expectations better left unfulfilled. Given that this story takes place somewhere midway between the previous back-story episodes and the beginning of the TV series, it would be breaking character for Meg to grow a spine, but that doesn't stop one from wishing that she'd do something other than snivel and cry whenever she's in a pinch. Plus, there's only one episode in the story and she still manages to get abducted.
