This show took me by surprise, I haven't read the manga or seen previews so I was completely in the dark. It's no wonder that this show has been pre-licensed, it is good, very good, at least for me. To me it has that classic adventure feel which is so hard to find. The music is good, what can I say it's the kind I like. We have another Goth/Loli girl cast member, which is not a bad thing, it seems to be the popular thing this season. Cute and funny cast members are a plus, I can't wait to see the bad guys, especially the one with the bunny (assuming she is one of the bad guys). The main character, I like him, not the type I'd usually like, but I like him. Not a lot of plot or story so far, but you know what, episode 1 was very entertaining and that's what counts.

Another good anime IMHO.

does anybody know where i can find comparisons between all the different grps that have subbed this series?? or any recommendations by ppl?

I quite enjoyed the first ep of this show, it seems like it could develop into an interesting story.

I read a slight bit of the manga for this and I thought it was quite nice. So I was looking forward to the anime. And I like the anime version. I think it's cute.

Yeah, this has a unique angle to it. We get the whole "hero meets cute girl who he has a crush on and wants to protect," but instead of "girl can't protect herself," she transforms into a powerful weapon. All in all, I like this anime.

Well episode 2 seemed to be quite decent too, especially when Kuea get's hungry LOL. Anyhow the only qualm I had with it was the drop in animation quality.

i haven't seen ep 2 yet, but they changed it from the manga... whether the difference is slight or significant, is all opinion, but i'm not too happy. they also took out quite a bit of comedy, aka. SD. we'll see how it turns out. the manga was awesome, hopefully the anime doesnt let down. this is a make-up for Rave's disappointment.

What humor did they take out? (I haven't read the manga yet)

[tardo]

SD scenes mostly, but some others too. you'd have to read it to find out.

Anybody know where I can get raw scans of volumes 1 and 2 of the manga? I have the scanlations, but I like raws better. Personally, I like how the manga is going more than the anime's path.
