Gungrave

Who's heard of this series and who has seen it. I just recently finished it and I must say it was one of the most well done animes I've seen in awhile. Its kinda based on the game but dwells more on what happened between the main character Brandon Heat and Harry MacDowell. I must say it is quite moving and tells one of the greatest stories of friendship and betrayal. If you haven't seen it I highly suggest you do.

Unfortunately, I've only seen up to episode 6. I haven't been able to get the rest lately...maybe later.
Anyway, this series is really good and really one of my current favs. (I especially love the ending theme! *sings along to CD*). What this series reminds me of is somewhat of Cowboy Bebop and besides that, a lot of the story reminds me of Asian drama/action films (with the whole friendship betrayal theme). And one of the parts in episode 6 really shows it (
Spoiler: show
when Harry was taking down the Lightning gang and Brandon was dancing with Maria...the bullet shells flying in the air and all the shooting accompanied by the classical music...very Asian
).

Anyway, yes...I really like this series and hope to finish it up soon.

Yeah just a little annoucement. I recently got the box set with the 1 dvd and I must say I am very pleased with the dubbing that was done. Some of these actors I never heard of do a great job on it.

Cool, thanks for the info. It's always a relief to know the dubbing is good or that the voice actors make a little effort to "be the character".

Sorry. Gotta bring this old thread back, and give my thoughts on it.

I don't have any episodes, but I was watching it on TechTV during the times they aired it.

I must say this is indeed a great anime. I do agree with it having some similarities of Cowboy Bebop. Even though I haven't seen all the episodes this is the 1st anime I've actually appreciated the story over the action, and I am probably one of the biggest action fans out there.

This is one of the anime series that I would like to see. It looked pretty good on the commercials I have seen for it. So overall, would anyone recommend it or is it just not that great?

Unhappy

I saw gungrave on G4TV, and it was mostly talking...
and the gun fights were minor...
and the title is long and almost puts me to sleep...
WHERE THE STUFF I SAW ON THE GAME, AW MAN!!!

The stuff from the game comes later in the anime.

Really, I think the anime is pretty good, adds some backstory to the games.

Yeah I own the box set with the first DVD too. So far I have every DVD that was released here (which is only 4). The series is really good and is my third favorite anime of all time. I do see the similiarities to Cowboy Bebop a bit too. And the good stuff does come later. Just be patient and enjoy the moment. I like the stuff about Brandon and Harry's past. Its real entertaining and just building up for the moment for when Brandon does finally die.
