What do you think about this anime/manga? I am a huge fan of it. I love the story, the characters, the battles, etc..... I love everything about it. My favorite character is Kazuma (the Shell Bullet; a.k.a. the Treasoner). I like his attitude and his alter-power.
 
I have mixed feelings on this series. The start is horribly slow, the characters aren't really all that interesting and the plot is a little... well, not really there.

There is some fantastic animation and some good single episodes but there are also some really horrible ones too.

Not a fan I have to say, overall. It is very far from the top of my 'favourite anime' list
 
I saw the first episode on Adult Swim and quickly became incredibly bored with it. After that, I tried to find something else to do with the 30 minutes between Samurai Champloo and Paranoia Agent.
 
I also could never be bothered to watch past the first episode on AS. The animation was nice and all, but animation isn't enough to get me hooked on a show.
 
I thought it was awful. I've certainly not seen anything in the series to suggest it belongs on Adult Swim. If anything, it feels more like a Toonami-show. There's really no content that an 10-year old wouldn't understand or be offended by.

It's definately the most generic anime I've ever seen. Absolutely nothing about it stands out. "Big guy with superpowers and a brash attitude" vs "big guy with superpowers and a cold and cool attitude" fight . . . because. Basically, it's like the most basic parts of every action anime distilled into a tasteless lump.

Click to expand...

I think the show was put on Adult Swim because Bandai couldn't be bothered to make the edits necessary for the show to be on Toonami. Not that there'd be that many edits to begin with.
 
I've watched it, and I actually like it, although I think that the manga is much better.
 
Seemed interesting from what I heard about it at another forum, I might watch it.
