This is a major part of the drama that takes place. Can you imagine what he must be feeling? Leave it to Masamune Shirow to come up with such a premise. Near the last few episodes, the characters become really amazing. More so than other Shirow works, this one is about love. Love between friends, family, the possibilities of love or lust in an age when everyone and everything is connected.
The whole thing about him being an old man is just one of the unusual things about this anime, mind you, stranger things happen in some of the eps.

The main character is that girl, dude. That old man (CEO or whatever) is also a major character.

Reason why I downloaded this was because Production I.G. also helpd produce non-other than Ghost in the shell series + Furi Kuri and others. I got up to 4th episode before I gave up.
Note: Production I.G. also took part in producing Avenger, which was excruciatingly painful to finish due to boredom.

=.= Really? I guess... Having a really average main character was unusual too.
That old guy who looks young is the Director of Electronic Investigations. I feel like he's supposed to be a foil for Haru.

That one was bad. However it mainly wasn't their production. Same for the excruciating Sisters of Wellber... Man, I forced myself halfway through that series and gave up.

I felt like I wasted 5 hours of my life... because half of the show is pointless and shallow fillers. Even without them the main plot is still weak - Man vs. Nature, the overused lame environmentalist theme. Not to mention the creepy relationship between an annoying teen girl and an old man(even if he's 30yo it's still creepy). The characters are generic and couldn't make me care about what happens to them(except Holon).

Yay Holon! Definitely my favourite character. This wasn't one of I.G.'s best series, but I feel it's a nice one to watch in bits and pieces.
