With the dark story, the cartoonish drawings could still fit, as is the case in Devilman, Billy Bat, and so on, but here it doesnt. I was never a big fan of 60s artwork which looks the same most of the time, like in Ashita no Joe, but Cyborg 009 has possibly the worst art i've ever seen. It looks like an even worse version of the Jetsons. But there is a major problem in this series. I mean what was originally supposed to be the ending) was pulled off very well. There was also a very prominent Anti-War theme, thought that isnt a bad thing and worked very well in the story. The overarching plot was great too, with interesting story arcs portraying their conflict. The characters were interesting, and though it was rushed in the beginning, they soon all got a respectable amount of character development. The concept of a group of people, all given superpowers against their will and dealing with the horrible repercussions of such was a revolutionary concept back in its inception, aside from x-men which came out only a few months prior.
