Like Eureka Seven and Nausicaa put into one! The story is about life forms (Hiruko) that can inhabit a host and turn them into a bio-weapon. On the way to school, Akiyuki is caught in a terrorist attack, from which he is 'infused' with a Hiruko, turning him into a Xam'd. In order to maintain his self-consciousness and not turn into stone, he attracts the help of Nausicaa, I mean Nakiami, a Tessican woman whose race respects the Xam'd. To top it all off, Akiyuki's country is at war with another, both of whom seek to eliminate the Xam'd.
All in all the show had a different storyline with diverse characters. The series had a good start, then got little a slow middle, and then had a moderate wrap up - but I would still recommend it. The animation was clean and pretty. It was interesting that this series came out on the US Playstation network before it was released to Japan.
