? He had seen others do it that had less cowboying skills than he, so what could be so hard about it? ,

I dont think anyone mentioned the music of this anime also. Man it is really good. I especially like the theme when Van calls Dann from the sky after etching the 7 V (does that mean like 7 days in a week, and V is roman numeral for 5th day of week, sunday being first? wow thats neat, never thought of that…)

Anyway, this series, like most good animes, has a great balance between humor and plain awesomeness, and the ending really had me wanting more. Also the style of eyes/art… this is what truly makes me like an anime or not (that and plot) and I really liked the graphics.

And like tj, I really like that everyone really has problems to work out in the series, though they do it in different ways and percieve each other as evil. Many kudos to the makers of this series!

Chris – Yeah great point about the blend of styles! Actually, I think the series gets stronger as it goes on. There are a few really funny episodes you’ll have to watch for! Actually, Rachel didn’t like the first two episodes, but after I started watching it on my own, she decided to join me somewhere during the fifth episode!

I just started watching Gun X Sword this past weekend, and I must say I quite like it. I love the blend of old and new, 70’s sensibilities with post millennial ones, the parodies, the crazy voltron from the sky…it’s all very tongue in cheek while still maintaining a very real feel of excitement. Awesome.

Dave, did you find that the series stayed strong throughout, or was a bit uneven in places? I’m only two episodes in, but I’m looking forward to the rest.

[...] At first I thought that marketing team had done a great job at coming up with another tagline! The second thought I had was “yawn – it’s gonna be like candle shopping”. But as Rachel and I watched the first few episodes, it started to make sense. I’ve kept my thoughts on this first volume very ‘hush-hush’, so don’t tell anybody. Especially Rachel – she thinks all that I like are anime boobs and outrageous mecha action.:) [...]

Cody – I thought the swim suit episode was really funny too! I thought the series ended well with 26 eps – it was a lot of fun, and ended on a nice note

I really enjoyed this series. There are very few series that I have to see how it ends. I like Van because he is so nonchalant about things (except when it does come to The Claw) and he is usually laid back. Some of the episodes are out right funny, like the one with the Mustache Brigade, the swim suit episode, and the episode called Light My Fire). I recommend this series to anyone who is into anime or is just starting out. I kind of wish the series didnâ€™t end at 26 episodes!

I never really thought about it that way tj han, and you’re so right; the bad guys do have good intentions and the good guys are self serving. The bad guys though do really bad things to realize their ambitions while the good guys seem to be doing the right thing (except for Van, but the Clawman has it coming).
