Gungrave - Who's seen it?

Goldknight · Post by **Goldknight** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:26 am

I've started watching it out of curiousity and I'm surprised that I'm enjoying.

I'm curious how many others have watched the series and what they thought?

I think I watched it.....
Is that the one with the pedophile guy??? and someone called "maria???"
I saw it on tv a while back....On either Cartoon network or the scifi channel.....
I remember I watched it, but I should probably watch it again....

I remember watching about a year or two ago. It was pretty good. I really liked Brandon.

Good series, I went into it thinking it would be a standard action series but was pleasantly surprised with a great plot and a solid cast.

I have to agree with EoP. I stumbled upon it a year or so ago. I really like Brandon, too. It's a decent series with a good storyline.

Meh...as far as I'm concerned, Yasuhiro Nightow can do no wrong. I love just about everything he does, and this is no exception!

Does artwork eve exist? Genga? Repro? Rilezu?

At one point, about 6 years ago, I won a set of genga copies off of YJ!. That was the ONLY thing I ever saw from the series.

I saw it way back when animeone was subbing it, and I also loved it. I've also been looking for artwork but have never seen anything up for auction, or in someones gallery. I guess they either destroyed them all or they're locked up in some safe somewhere. I would love to get my hands on some gengas/dougas myself.

I seen Gun Grave back when it came out in 2003 to 2004 and loved/love it.
I only seen one original genga set back in 2005 and seen several copies since 2004 to now. I haven't seen any lately, but really didn't look either. I would love to find some original genga.

I'm really surprised at how much I'm liking the story and characters so much. I'm in love with Brandon.

I just finished episode #16 and was bawling.

The story itself is so addicting. I can't stop watching. I finally decided that I needed to sleep last night around 3AM.

Oy...

i personally own the series and loved the beginning and the way the story was presented (from future, to past revelation, to future) I enjoyed the past more because it seemed more convincing and real instead of the fakeness of the future (ie, people died easily and it wasn't a simple DBZ fight), but the future ending was pretty good and heartfelt too. I do recommend it and would like to point out that the intro may not grab you, but the middle and end will.

I agree. If you can get passed episode #1 then it gets good.

I stumbled on it when Sci-Fi had it on. But it was somewhere in the middle of the series so I didn't watch. Everyone knows you can't jump into the middle of an anime.

*adding to list to watch*

Well I finished it last night was just bawling.

:bal

I'm still in love with Brandon though.
