Life seems simple for Koichi, a young student, until he learns that he is the reincarnation of an alien protector who crashed onto the mantle of responsibility as"defender of the Earth", Koichi/Babel teams up with trio of super-powered alien companions to battle the the dark forces of an evil cult leader. The war to save humanity takes Babel from the deserts of southern Asia to the upper east side of Manhattan and ultimately to a final showdown with "the master" in a hidden base nestled in the Swiss Alps. The action is fast-paced and deadly. The fate of the world rests in the ability of this courageous youth to tame his latent psychic power and use it to defeat the enemies of mankind.
I will admit the story is okay but does feel very rushed for a 4 episode OVA. We don't get much depth behind Koichi aside from being some high schooler who can use Babel.
The dub hasn't aged well especially from its time. Both Koichi and Juju sound like adults then teenagers. Speaking of Juju I wasn't big on how she was a love interest from the other side that hardly had any chemistry with the main character aside from some scenes, heck i don't know why she didn't choose to follow him and his journey towards the end.
Overall it's okay for it's time but not the best 90's anime.
