Simply put, this game is amazing.

Yeah, it'll of course be subbed. I got all of the current 17 episodes from Bittorrent, but I'll most definitely be buying the DVDs when they come out early next year.

The latest series from the most awesome Shinichiro Watanabe (of Cowboy Bebop fame). It's a series which is still currently airing in Japan, but will be out on DVD in the States around January of next year. Where as Cowboy Bebop seemed to focus on Jazz music, this series seems to focus on hip-hop music. Basically, it's a series set in Japan around the mid- 1800's. It's about two badass Samuari named Mugen and Jin. They couldn't be any farther apart in terms of personality. One is headstrong and instinctive while the other is cool and collected. They play off each other very nicely. The other character is a girl named Fuu. She basically helps Mugen and Jin escape in the first episode from being executed for a crime they really didn't commit. Anyways, afterwards she enlists their help to find a Samurai, not just any samurai, but a samurai that "smells of sunflowers". It's a very cool series, not quite up to the level of greatness of Bebop, but still is totally excellent. In my opinion, Shinichiro Watanabe can do no wrong...

Oi. Well, I'm not one to oggle over titties in anime... I'm just happy that there's an anime nowadays which follows the old-school anime formula in which good story + violence + nudity = good stuff. Like Ghost In The Shell!

This is a series I just discovered. It's currently out in Japan and I think has recently been licensed by ADV to be released in the States at some point. It's a 13 episode series. I really don't know what the overall story is about, but the first episode was VERY violent and had a lot of nudity. Of course, for me, those are positive elements. It started out in some type of government facility. There was this naked girl locked in some types of restraining device and she had a big metal helmet thing on her head. She eventually breaks free and slaughters all the guards during her escape. She kills with some sort of telepathic ability of some sort. Invisible forces cut the guards in half, cut off theirs heads, etc. It's pretty crazy. The story seems somewhat interesting so far, so I'll definitely be checking it out. I just hope they don't censor it when it comes out over here.
