Synopsis
First off, this is a Gundam Series in which the mecha’s actually get damaged.
Gundam Wing to 08th MS Team comparison: GW had gundams that could take bullets and beam rifles. If you were gunned down in MS Team then you’re dead.

Review
08th MS Team shows how Gundam works. (Nuclear powered) The Gundams and MS in this anime are as follows: RX-79, Zaku I, II, Gouf, GM, Mobile Armors, and the EZ-8. There’s a love story where (no spoilers, watch it and find out) Anyway, war between the two groups breaks out and that’s about it.

The Breakdown
Although my favorite U.C. Gundam series is 0083 Stardust Memory. 08th is another good experience. Stick to AC if you like invincible Gundams. If you’re that ‘I’ll watch anything as long as it’s about Gundams’ type, go buy the series and watch it if you haven’t already

Synopsis
Love Hina, is about Keitaro, some dude who made a promise with this girl way back when they where still little kids. The story continues from the flash back. The promise is that they both will get into Tokyo University and attend it together, no matter what. Keitaro, fails the acceptance test and with little hope left. His Grandma sent him a letter telling him to take care of Hinata-sou (ed. - hence the sites name: anime-sou) for her when she goes away for vacation.

Review
Now the story really gets started… Keitaro meets all the other characters: Naru, Kitsune, Shinobu, Kaolla and Motoko Anyways, the whole series is about a love relationship which evolved to a triangle love relationship. All this drama starts and blah blah blah (to keep the spoiler to a minimum).

The Breakdown
Quality, Sound and Story for Love Hina is a state of the art. Even if you hate love type anime, Love Hina will change your mind!!

Synopsis
‘Do you know? When two people in love can both get into Tokyo University, they’ll live happily forever. So when we grow up, let’s go to Todai together…Bye-bye Kei-kun. We must meet again in Todai. Promise me ok~’

‘My name is Urashima Keitaro. I’m 20 years old. The only girl I liked I can’t even remember her name. Because of that promise I failed the entrance exams twice already…’

The Breakdown
Love Hina is amusing similar to the enjoyment of watching those Saturday morning cartoons when you were little. You will not go without laughing with this one.

Review
BS#6 is based on the hit manga Blue Submarine No. 6 in 1960 by Ozawa-san. The scientist Zorndyke has seemingly turned his back on humanity, creating a race of beast/ people to challenge the humans for global supremacy. Now it’s up to Mayumi Kino, a young female pilot, Tetsu Hayumi, a jaded veteran soldier and the flagship, the Blue Submarine No. 6. to stop him. About 90% of the show was done in 3D, the action, water, and the mechs. As I was watching BS#6, I was wondering if this series will be the same hit if it was done all in 2D. Turns out that without the 3D effects, BS#6 overall, would be dull.

The Breakdown
BS#6 is good when there isn’t anything else to watch, of course this series had the most 3D effects I’ve seen that actually made a difference in the overall product.

Synopsis
If you were an anime fan in 1999 or 2000 then you’ve had to have heard of Cowboy Bebop. To some, this is considered to be the best animated series ever….Who am I to argue. I have to admit though, the first time I saw the main character, Spike, I though he was pretty goofy looking. But after a few minutes of viewing he was the coolest character I’ve ever seen. Enough about that. On to the DVD. For $29.99 (or maybe less in some places) you get five crystal clear episodes. What a deal! The VHS tapes only had two episodes apiece at $24.99.

Review
Session #1, ‘Asteroid Blues’, is a good introduction to Spike and his partner, Jet. They’re bounty hunters in the year 2071, where humans have moved to other planets and venture though space often. The ship they reside on is called Bebop. They deal with a drug called Red Eye. It’s pretty action packed and there’s a scene with a slow-mo effect that has to be seen to be believed.

Session #2, ‘Stray Dog Strut’, is a fun chase, after a dog!? What could they possibility want with a tiny little canine. It’s a much lighter story than the first but manages to how us how these characters interact with humorous stories and more serious tales.

Session #3, ‘Honky Tonk Women’, introduces us to ultra vixen, Faye Valentine. The only chick that can be cool and hot at the same time.

Session #4, ‘Gateway Shuffle’ We get more of Ms. Valentine and a family who’s value are…well, turning people into monkeys.

Session #5, ‘Ballard of Angels’ We meet Spikes rival, arch villain, Vicious. And that he is. But although he is Mr. Bad guy, he’s still soooo cool. As the conclusion of this disk, it couldn’t end better. All in all, the first disk is truly enjoyable viewing.

The Breakdown
If you haven’t seen Cowboy Bebop yet, what are you waiting for? It’s like taking a vacation…much needed.

Synopsis
The year is 2071 AD. That future is now. Driven out of their terrestrial eden, humanity chose the stars as the final frontier. With the section-by-section collapse of the former nations a mixed jumble of races and people came. They spread to the stars, taking with them the now confused concepts of freedom, violence, illegality and love, where new rules and new generation of outlaws came into being. People referred to them as Cowboy Bebops…

Review
The continuation of the series, episodes 6-10, which can be purchased for $29.99 on DVD (Ouch), is a great addition to any anime fans collection. The 2nd Session DVD follows the bebop crew on more crazy and insane chases and thrills and opens up more information about the bebop members. A musical prodigy, a space trucker, an energetic young crook, a hacker from Earth, and a mysterious woman from Jets past, this is not one to miss. 2nd Session, taking place directly after the confrontation between Spike and Vicious, with more mayhem and excitement as you follow the crew on further bounty hunting adventures. The story really starts to progress with each episode and slowly pull back the blinds on some mysteries that surround the characters, which draws the viewer in and engrosses them into the story. Volume 2 introduces of a new member to the Bebop crew, which unquestionably adds large amounts of craziness and comedy to the story, and adds some new flavor to the mix. I enjoyed these episodes as much as I did watching the first.

The Breakdown
Definitely one of my favorite anime series that I have ever seen and I really suggest checking it out.
