Get Backers has to be my favorite series at the moment...I just finished the first season (downloaded off of http://www.animesuki.com) and I just have so much love for it, because it has a certain style and charm that is unmatchable. With its combination of wacky, borderline absurd plotlines; sexy, badass characters and fight scenes that just plain kick ass, I just had to fall in love with it. The show is like a fighting anime- think Dragon Ball Z except better EVERYTHING. The animation owns, the music is incredible, and seeing Akabane "Dr. Jackal" Korodo in action makes watching it all the more worth it. The second season shows tons of promise, and I have watched the opening theme to it at least 50 times because it really reminds me of Shenmue for some odd reason...
Anyway here is the breakdown:
Watch this anime if you like:
-Martial Arts, superhuman strength and magic powers.
-Comedy blended with drama
-Corny plotlines
-Shonen Ai themes (gay love between men...ahem)
-Cuteness (I'd say Ginji takes this one....)
-Characters with badass clothes, attitudes and strength
DON'T watch this anime if:
-You hate plots that drag on
-You hate the Shonen Ai themes (these only show up in the second season really)
-You hate corny plotlines
-You hate crazy characters designs
Anyway that's my 2 cents. Go Get Backers today!
(A PLAY ON WORDS! SEE? I'M CLEVER!)
