2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Carpe_Diem12 Now I am a huge fan of anime but I despise anime's that builds it's reputation on jiggly breast which is why I didn't give this one a chance when I first caught the trailer for it.. It was not until it was dubbed in English and aired on Anime Network did I decide to give it a chance. I can not tell you how upset I am at myself for not catching this series earlier. It has such a unique and fantastic story line that it sets apart from many other anime series out there. Although there are parts where the breast are just popping out everywhere this series does not thrive on that particular aspect.The show lingers on trying to find out exactly who is controlling the limitless fortress which is an unfinished colossal building and city which contains many citizens who are not so prosperous. That also includes the four kings. A group of powerful people who controlled the limitless fortress before the leader Ginji Amano left the group. Since then the place has been controlled by (apparently) money hungry blood thirsty weirdos who never show their faces and send henchmen to do their dirty work.. They also try to find out if whether or not the ex leader of the four kings Ginji Amano can control his unearthly electrical powers which sometimes consumes him to a point where he does not even know who he is anymore.The only problem with this series I would say is that at the very last episode (WARNING HERE COMES A BIG SPOILER) they never even showed who the hell was behind the door to the top of the limitless fortress!!! I mean they rescued Makubex when he was kidnapped, that fire woman healed Sakura after she nearly killed her and then when they get to the door where the end of the people who are controlling the limitless fortress are, (which is what the entire series was bent on) THEY DON'T EVEN SHOW US, AND THE SERIES ENDS THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I love cliffhangers as much as the next person but damnit sometimes people can just go to far..All in all each episode is filled with much excitement to keep you wanting more (especially the last) so this is a must see series.. I loved it lots and I give it a 7 out of 10.. If the last episode would have ended better I'd give it a 10 but noooooooo..

fatemaster2003 This is the best anime I have ever seen. The story is about 2 man, Midou Ban and Amano Ginji, whose job is to get everythng that was lost, back. In this case, everything really means everything. I really like the doll-like ginji. He is really cute when he acted that way. Well, to be honest, maybe Ginji is the only one with this funny figure in this movie.The movie, not only talk about their "how to get things back", but also their complex background. Well, in this movie, everyone have their own background. There are Amano Ginji, the raitei; kazuki fuuchoin (the master of string); Shido Fuyuki (beast master); Kakei Juubei (kazuki's protector); Akabane Kuuroudo aka Dr. Jackal (the best antagonist and cool character to my opinion); Himiko (poison master) and a lot more. Even the bar keeper has his own background.Well, the story is quite complex but yet, entertaining. So,don't think about anything else that will make you confused. Enjoy the movie without questions ask. That's the best way to watch this movie.P.S.: For a better voices, if possible, use the Japanese audio. The sound will be much more cuter than the English audio, which to my opinion, didn't suit the characters at all.Enjoy!!!! My rating: 10/10

squala The title was not really catchy at first, but the entire show told a different story. Upon seeing a preview of Get Backers in a new cartoon channel, Animax, I first thought they were just people accepting jobs to avenge for their clients, as in "getting back at enemies." I watched the first episode, and it turns out they are actually retrievers, taking back lost or stolen things. The Get Backers duo is basically composed of a mind (Mido Ban) and a heart (Ginji Amano).Ban is technically the leader, who is smart and initially has two powers, the 200-kilogram grip called "Snake Bite," and the Evil Eye, which is some sort of hypnosis making victims imagine different sorts of things for one minute while something else is actually being done around them without their knowing. More of his abilities can be known as the series goes on.Ginji, on the other hand, is a compassionate airhead who generates electricity. It may sound rather uninviting, since there have been many other super heroes who can conduct electricity as well, like Static Shock. But don't let this discourage you; Ginji is a very interesting and lovable character. He may seem like a pushover to Ban, but the latter looks after him most of the time, and both are even more powerful if they sense their partner to be in trouble.There are many more powerful characters in the series, each with their own distinct abilities. The one I liked most is Akabane, aside from Ban. He may have a lusty thirst for fighting, but he is bloodily funny for some reason. Shido is the one I dislike. He takes pride in settling fights without help from anyone, but around half of his work is done by his animal followers. He sort of contradicts his own beliefs this way. However, with his great love and utmost protection for Madoka, the blind violinist, it still makes sense for him to be in the show. I was also annoyed by Fudou, who wants nothing but dead enemies. He only wants to kill people, a total demon. Besides, villains have to be a pain in the neck, so all the more the audience wants him to be defeated. The sound is very good and story is smooth flowing as well - a perfect blend of action, comedy and drama. We shall see many flashbacks on the characters as we watch on, which are equally interesting and can even make some of us sentimental to our own past. Not only do we get to laugh a lot; we can also learn many principles in life, even without any of those superhuman powers.If there was a downside to this show, it's because it has to end. Well, the series wasn't actually concluded yet. There are many questions left unanswered, stones still unturned. There have been rumors of a second set of episodes, but it's been around three years since this series was created. We can do nothing but hope for more.

Dai-Panda This anime, along with Cowboy Bebop, revived my love of anime. It is original, full of great characters, has a healthy portion of humour, and superb animation. I cannot find more words than that to describe it, but it truly is one of the very best animeshows of all-time. The characters of Mido Ban, and Amano Ginji... it is rare to find characters that feel as if they truly are best friends. There are a few irritations though, such as a slight 'DBZ'/'Naruto'-syndrome on some of the fights, that is, they last for several episodes, and consists mostly of back flashes and silent contemplation of the various things moving through the fighters heads. It makes up for this though, with a very colourful array of characters, such as the two main characters, and of course, the personal favourite; Akabane Kurodou. This truly is, a must-see anime, for all who love the great and original.
