Getbackers

.: HOME :.

	[[ Beginning ]] I realized that there weren't any/much English sites about Get Backers. Thus, the idea for this site started. I always wanted to create a site on a specific series which I like. However, in most cases, series I like usually have tons of beautiful sites available already. Therefore, I don't see the need for competition. Moreover, I know where my capabilities lies. Thus, no point battle in stir war coz I know I will lost out ;p .Thus I decide to choose a series which I can be the pioneer, so without much hesitation GET BACKERS .: cool flow :. was born on Dec 2002 (Am I the 1st Get Backers Anime English site?? I certainly hope so!). Secondly, I am totally obsessed by this series.

	[[ Name ]] There are few names in my mind (Eg 2 Cool, Claimer Master, Energy Generator, Hefty Fee, Retrieval Agent...and so on). I am clueless which one sound the best. Eventually, I choose to use "Cool Flow" . = Cool = Isn't it self explanatory? Of course, I am describing the supernatural duet Mido Ban & Amano Ginji + the series itself = Flow = Idea taken from the title of Naomi Tamura Single : Get Backers OP - 2nd title track "Things of a flow". On top of that, energy flow from within to target victims/objects (Imply to those characters when making use of their gifted power on their enemies) .

	[[ Layout ]] Basically, I copy the html code from one of the anime site. It may sound abit thick skin but I reallie love the layout and the colour just fit in nicely. It suit the theme perfectly..."cool"... You need dark background to bring out the font color : icy blue ^o^ . Don't you agree?

	[[ Introduction ]] Basically, this site will focus more on the anime version of Get Backers. Hope this didn't upset those manga fans! Becoz what set me captivated is the artworks of the animated Get Backers rather than the manga. Frankly, speaking if it is not for my brother I won't even know what is Get Backers...hahah.... Before the anime even started making, I have tried reading the manga. However, I think the drawing are not of my liking (Gomenasai to the authors, I do respect your works. If not, I won't be setting up this website. It just my personal opinions, so pls do not be offended by what I say...coz this is not the end of my speech...pls read on). Thus, I gave up (Now, I regret for making that mistake). After my liking for the anime begin, I have started picking up the manga and I realize the artworks have improved alot from its previous. The story just get more and more exciting which got me hocked and craving for more :p. Anyway, where was I...oh ya although my love for the manga has grown but I pretty much still prefer the anime. I guess I am hypnotize by Mido Ban..hehee...he is way way kakoii & cool...just love his serious look when he hypnotize his victims through those soulful eyes.

	[[ Confession ]] I need to confess coz I have guilt (serious tone). Okie, you must be thinking what the hell I am talking? What do you think? Make a guess! Why I have so many nice goodies in my site? Basically, I have taken some of the information/pics from the different Get Backers websites I visited. Eventually, compile as a whole and present the resources here ;p. Thus, I feel reallie guilty and wish to take this opportunity to give credits to those websites which have help me indirectly. I hope I didn't offend anyone of you ,as I have given credits to where I extract the information/pics from. If you are still rather unhappy with my act, you can tell me and I will take down the pics.

	[[ Limited Resources ]] I don't have a good scanner or alot of getbackers stuff on hand. Although, I have some basic IT knowledge of web design but I not reallie up to that standard until I can actually make my own wallpapers/winamp skins or even nice flash/banners/icons. So it pretty much explain why I need to get the sources from others (Ya, how I hope I am reallie tt capable). Secondly, I am pretty broke..hahah..just like the getbackers duet. I can't afford to create a site with my own domain name or even increase my bandwidth. But fear not, coz I finally manage to get some extra bandwidth from "Angelfire" to upload some of the bigger size files such as MP3s & videos. Thank god! In the meantime, I will try to get as much Get Backers goodies to upload here. SO..keep alook out for any updates.

	[[ Life Span ]] I understand the life span on a specific series tend to be short. Especially after the story has ended ,so does the website. I have no idea how long I will maintain this site but I guess it not a big issue.

	[[ Assistance ]] I can be rather careless. If I provide the wrong information or there any typo error, do keep me inform by dropping me an email. At times, there sections which I left/mark blanks/???, as I do not have the necessary information. If you have the information, I will be glad you help me to fill up the blanks :p....ya it not easy to set up a site coz you need to source information/do alot of reading like mad. But since it my interest, I have no grudge on tt, I am enjoying myself even though it hefty. If you want to donate any get backers goodies such as wallpapers, winamp skins, adoptables & etc. I would be more than happy to take it and share with the others ^v^. Since this is site is a hub to promote the series and provide information & fun for fans. Credits will certainly be given. That always been my policy coz I respect others pple hard works and I hope others respect mine too.
