Trigun

Sep 24, 2010

I regret to inform, but alas its true, Trigun is freaking sweet. I wont say the plot completely, because what you discover just ads to its greatness.  But ill say a few things, creater/ alien/ telepathy/ sadness/ cool f*#king bad guys/ goofy Vash/ doughnuts/ funny/ serious double dollars/ edorphen releasing...if you havnt seen it...watch it..with J Y Borsh at the helm you know its high quality (best voice actor ever, even if close rivalled). I have watched so many anime my eyes are sore, and Trigun is my fav, its gotta be worth something

Saiyuki

Yes yes Yes, this is jouney to the west my friend and I wanna make sweet love to it, that’s right, see Sanzo, Goku, Gojo and Haikki in this funny, brutal, cliff jumping version of the cult classic. A Sanzo priest is venturing west, in this story to discover the origins of a mist which has caused all demons that onced lived harmoniously with human to go insane. with him is the god born from stone (Goku) and the two half demons (Son Gojo - mother was a human, father a demon) and Cho Hakkai (Killed over 1000 demons in a rampage after the loss of his beloved and became a demon himself). together they...

Rurouni Kenshin

Sep 24, 2010

Don’t let the title of romantic tales of the meiji fool you, it not all mushy gushy, and they even flash back to the Edo period, hence the strong enforcement on the Shinsengumi, in particular Hajime Saito, Kenshins arch rival. This story is based on truth while pushing the fiction. In my top ten becasue i simply love the in depth plot, which circles around samurai X, but reveals the happy times, rather than the gut renching sadness of the before and after. This is a long series, but i know you will not look back and regret it.

Peace Maker Kurogane

Sep 24, 2010

Top 10er. This series is the 1st I owned in single cased individually bought sets, it contains 7 discs and I can name every episode and explain it too you. So if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Takes place in 19th century Japan during the Edo period before the meiji restoration, and centres around the building of a fictional character called Tetsunoske Ichimura in the Shinsengumi before there big raid on the Ikedaya. This show is amazing, musically, visually and educationally, I love it with all my passion

Gungrave

Sep 24, 2010

One of my personal Fav's here, I cant say exactly what it is, just that a story has never been so…godfather like to me. Shows the story of 2 young men climb there way to the top of the mafia (Millenium) one for power and glory, the other for love. Then their spiral into seperate lives, to ultimately lead to a sad and devestating end, simply amazing, they say it was based off a game...but seriously, unlike every other game, this one makes you wonder

Get Backers

Sep 24, 2010

If you lose something, no matter what it is, a watch, a key or even the human heart, you can always get it back…and if not, these guys will get it for you. This is in the top 5 without a doubt, get backers shows the lord of thunder in all his might as former leader of 'the tower' and a man with the ability to invade peoples minds and create a false reality. This is super power heaven, and the plot is killer, high recommendation

Fullmetal Alchemist

Sep 24, 2010

Most of us are familiar with FMA, however if your looking at this review you may not be. Okay, Edward is pretty much the all time greatest alchemist ever, Alphonse is his continuously unlucky brother, both are lovable..and so is everyone they meet. the bad guys are bad, the good guys are good. well written, ends well. One of the best series ends ever. However if ya still wanted more, then it can be found easily in the conqueror of Shambala. Watch this, and watch it again and again...go Edward!!

Elfen Lied

Sep 24, 2010

I tried to stick to exact numbers here, but it feels like i'm not giving enough credit to the series only giving it 9. The twisted vision of alien life, an amazing and gripping series, that unfolds the lost memories of Lucy, a doomed individual. One of the best anime ive seen. The revelations, may or may not be expected, but the severity and the heart warming, heart breaking happenings, are just....vectorlicious

Wolf's Rain

Sep 24, 2010

Top 10er alert!, near on all information would give this lil baby away, so ill refrain, what I can say is werewolves arn just by the full moon, there on command, and this follows the journey some take, in order to find there tru goal. I cant say more than I love this series. It is a serious anime. A ending which is worth the build up, and a very mighty ducks attitude, with a gurren Lagann tactic.

Trinity Blood

Sep 24, 2010

The manga is here as well, wanna know why, coz the series is great. A world where Vampires exist, to the point they have there own city (they call themselves Mathusela) and also where the humans live not in fear but in preperation of battle (they call them Terrans) but also where the scariest of all a vampire, who feeds of other vampires (Krusnik) is on the side of the vatican...but wait, how many of these are there..do they all work for the vatican? this story gives hope to the lost and falsehood to the wicked, give me a high five, pure human strength is showcased in this baby. Cool characters... See full review

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

Sep 24, 2010

The last series I watched before typing this so I could go on for hours, but I'll try to keep it simple. Simmon is a Digger, he finds treasure, the treasure is Lagann, a gunman (battleship) that has the ability to merge with other gunman. The small town is threatened and Simmon must escape, a feat which without Kamina (Love this guy) would be impossible. Due to multiple circumstances Kamina leads a large gathering of oppressed ground people, much like him and Simmon, into a war. A war which decides not only their fate but the fate of Mankind. Without a doubt this anime will make you... See full review

Scryed

Sep 24, 2010

Have any powers, which side of the quake were you on? Under 30? Well this series goes into the motions of one man, a savage man, with a heart of gold and a fist of pure fire. One of my top 10ers, this series gives new meaning to justice, and peacekeeping efforts, oh and who is the bad guy? this is hands in the air action folks. watch it only if you want to be entertained in similar fashion to tokyo underground

Samurai Champloo

Sep 24, 2010

Sa sa sa samurai shampoloo, sorry, it just says it in the middle of every episode, you begin to hear it in your sleep. But I do promise your dreams will be sweet at least. Because this series is also up the top end of awesome. 3 characters, Moogen an awkward roughneck with a breakdance style of fighting, a swordsman who stays very quiet, but has a strong distaste for Moogen then there is the girl who stands between them, and they accompany each other in order to find the swordsman who smells like sunflowers...this is their epic journey. that offers all ya want from an anime. schmick as!

Last Exile

Sep 24, 2010

With the children of the worlds greatest Vanship pilots as the protagonists, could this show be bad. I don’t think so, a slow start and flashy end, but if you follow it and understand it throughout, I highly recommend. This venture dictates the chain reaction of events falling from the delivery of a single message

This series is absolutely excellent. If you ever have dreamed of going to another world, well none more than Zed. This series is highly recommend, more than so many. The main good guy is harsh, main bad guy is good. Dumas and Hugh are really the only characters you may think...meh, I don't like you. but everyone else is cool. An interesting ending, to meet a very watchable and addictive series

Hhahahahahaha if ya like funny, then this is not for you. Unless of course you watch the english version..and in that case, put your bed pan under you. It makes it even funnier once you discover that the original was a serious series....but who wants that when you watch this provocative side splitting series, that rekindled my love of innocent perversion

Sep 24, 2010

Now we see it, another top 10er, English, Japanese, Polish, ive seen it in every language and it loses little in translation. Wont bore you with explainations of the obvious, Light is a genuis, L is a genius, one is rightious, one is justice. both are pitted against each other in a  battle of wits, who will win? oh and one contains a notebook, or something like that, I shall give you one quote if for some reason Death note escapes your knowledge (however if your reading this and don't know….for shame!) "whoevers name is written in the deathnote will die" might not be exact, but sue me... See full review

Once a proud demon, forced to cut off the head of Pandomonium, refusing to continue the ruthless battle of the heavens, and deciding good, his horn is removed. Now Chrono remains in a childlike state, his lifeforce controlled by Rosetta of the Magdolin order. The fight to keep evil at bay. This series is another top 10er folks, it has action intrigue and its just a fun watch, look out for the ending, u'll cry

Bleach

Sep 24, 2010

Bleach, the on going monster that covers so many sagas I could explode. In breif there are Shinigami (death Gods) and Hollow (basically the evil spirits), it’s a death gods job to stop the hollows. More characters and challenges are introduced, at the moment we see Ichigo battling Aizen in his arrancar form, while remaining in his hollow form, whether your a fan of manga or anime, this will tickle anyones fancy

Berserk

Sep 24, 2010

An epic Tale of a man who builds himself up from a small mercenary clan and continues on to be the commander of a large organisation, known as the band of the hawks, great series. To give an honest review, once this series finished, I was rushing to the computer to read the ongoing manga collection. Just a tip, when you finish, watch the 1st episode again...and if you were me, just relish the fact you've witnesses awesomeness

Orphen Orphen Orphen, what can be said about Orphen, well he is the worlds greatest magician, was exiled from the tower of fang for witnessing his love commit suicide, his teacher and mentor was blamed, however he was Ozzalee's (ophens love) boyfriend. With Dragons magic, bogus apprenices, little blonde princesses and Dorton...dont ask...this is a fun series, both sad and serious at time. It is a stock in anime collections, if for nothing else, watch and see for other animes giving reference to this series. you may be shocked at actual events, and whether I have lied in this review. feel free to...

Would you believe 90% of this show takes place under tokyo? Well it does! Whether it’s a master of Fire or water, it’s the master of the wind that takes the high chair to this event, can the promised child be saved, or will the rulers of this underground city be victorious. an excellent series, fun  and worth a watch. I'd have to say if you love powers and growth of strength through training, or hidden potential...as if you wouldn't give this 10/ 10

But yes if you like mankind vs alien insects, battle suits vs battle suits, brother vs brother and the evil warlord Darkon based on the darkside of the mon, then your gunna flip

She is so young yet so wise, well she isnt wise, she is quite obnoxious, and actually after leaving the floating castle after a disaster over 100years ago, taking with her the Lord of fire and wisdom..I guess she aint young either. Anyway this particular story shows the maturing of the flame Haze Shana and the Midnight lost child whom every magician and his demon are after. Its cute fun, and makes you feel for the protagonists. I like it, its good from every angle, look it up

Ginta is a lovable character, and well every character has a lighter side to them...and those that don't well they pay for it. ill keep adding to this review as I watch more. Also, if you want to feel like your not wasting your time, each episode offer some new information or a cool battle/ training sequence
