Finally....FINALLY! It has come!

[beck]

After waiting for about oh.....a week and 4 days after the release, I got my Gungrave boxset in the mail today. I think after all the troubles I went through with Wolf's Rain and Gungrave, I'm no longer pre-ordering or buying online UNLESS I really have to. With the exception of one person if he can get me what I want in his grasp.

The mousepad that came with the dvd is all cool and holographic-ie (I know thats not a word). The box itself is awesome, its has Yasuhiro Nightow's artwork all over the box. Its so neat to see the Gungrave characters looking like the Trigun manga designs. WHICH after seeing this art, I think Nightow should've made a Gungrave manga or at least think about it even though we do have the game from which all of this is based on his idea.

I don't think I've been this giddy over getting a series on dvd ever. I'm really anxious to hear more of how the dub sounds and to FINALLY see it on actual tv and not my small ass compy screen. But am going to have to do it when bubba's not around as it seems I can't watch what I want on the big screen tv in the living room.

I still have to watch last Sat nights anime I taped before it gets too late and Seed comes on before I get that far. But I also want to watch Last Comic Standing thats on Comedy Central right now. Choices choices.

I think this is the first time that I really saw Jolice's full body after he was shot.

Yeah! I was really shocked because when I saw that scene. I didn't remember it being that graphic. Poor Jolice! He was such a great guy.

I swear to god Lee's voice sounds like Spike from Bebop but the VA name isn't him.

I just checked on imdb.com and Lee is voiced by Spike's VA! So we're not losing our minds! *lol* This guy has so many aliases you would think that he was a criminal or something.

Hehehehe you should've seen the geek in me sit down while watching it on Mon. and jotting notes down about the voices.

*LOL* But thanks to that I didn't have to look everyone up on imdb. There were a few surprises like Big Daddy's VA. *LOL* When I read that he was Vampire Hunter D that brought a smile on my face because VHD was my first anime movie.

I see where you're coming from with that list you made. It's refreshing to see something different in anime. Gantz has got me kinda boobed out. *LOL* The human drama was really gripping and these are characters that'll stay with me for a long time. I just don't understand why people didn't like the show. I remember when it first came out a lot of folks thought that it sucked. I mean, the first episode wasn't great but you have to give a show a chance. I'm hoping that more people will be able to appreciate the show now that it's available on DVD.

Well between Gantz and Tenjou Tenge (both anime and manga wise), I'm getting boobed out too. The writers, producers, and directors sure knew what they were doing when it came to making the GG characters come to life. Not even Trigun was that deep.

Speaking of Gantz, heads up that the 2nd season will be airing Aug.26 ^_________^ Though I'm going to dread seeing the Temple scene animated *sniffles*
