-Fist of the North Star (Streamline)

                      


        Well now, need advice on anime, eh? I would like to consider myself unbiased when  I review anime but it's hard not to hate a series when they suck.  My personal faves are posted in the "Who am I" section, most of what will be put up will be reviews of domestic releases, or fansubs I have gotten a hold of.


My rating criteria...Basically I'll give a rundown of the flick, then I rate it from 1-10, one being the lowest, 10 being the highest.

1=   I refilled my lighter...

2= I burnt the video right after I watched it.

3= I thought about burning it but was to lazy to.

4= I looked at my lighter...

5= Better if drunk...

6= Basically good

7= Good Flick

8=Great Flick

9= Must See

10=Cult Classic

 

 


New Releases...


Title:Garzeys Wing

Rating: 5

            The Basis: To tell you the truth, I didn't pay attention to much, because if I did I wouldn't have given it a "5".  The basic premise is an alternate world/dimension needs some help, so they call upon their "mystical" hero, aptly named "Chris".  He's your basic "Hey I just finished school its summer so I'll hang out" japanese kid.  The only twist is that when he's transported over, only his spirit is, so during the show it flips back from medieval Chris asking present day Chris for advice on gunpwder and other stuff, overall a renter.

 


Title: Cowboy Bebop- Heavy metal Queen

Rating: 8

            The Basis: Bebop is one of the domestics as of late to really catch my eye, The first ep. is alright, but the second ep. is what you'll want to buy/rent this tape for.  It's a perfect example of why the series is a hit, both for its art style, character design and story.  If you haven't seen it yet then at least look for sites that'll have pics and downloads.

 


Fan-Subs...


Title: Katsuhiro Otomo's Memories    

Rating:10!

           The Basis: I  might have reviewed this before but that was with a horrible copy and I still gave it a ten, but now I got a perfect LD master! The premise is simple, three stories written by Otomo and add two directors(Otomo directs the last one) and you get Memories.Man this is Awsome! you folks have really got to get off yer keesters and watch this flick I'm tellin ya, it really F*cks you up.

 


Oldies...


Title:Fist of the North star

Rating:9

             The Basis:C'mon if you haven't seen this then you folks shuldn't be here, this is the kill all fight movie blodd extravaganza!  Well then the premise here is simple, one man out to save his lost love taken by his best friend.  It may be corny but this is the reason why it's corny.
