CANAAN is one of the more anticipated series of the season, and in the sense of animation and action, I’d say it’s definitely fit the bill.  As far as the story goes, I still think it’s too early to really know.  This seems like it’s going to be one of those shows where you don’t really know what’s going on, but you continue to be given pieces here and there as the series goes on until it all comes together in the end.

Basically at this point we have the “Snakes,” which seem to be some sort of terrorist group, whatever group CANAAN is working for, which doesn’t seem to be all that nice of a group either, in that they’re just using CANAAN (or so they think), and then we have this photographer girl Maria who had been injected by some sort of super virus which she only survived because her father was the president of a huge pharmaceutical company.  How all of these fit together, however, is yet to be seen.  Stories like this seem to either do really well or really badly from my experience.
