i have the honor of watch this series about 2 year ago . i rent all 3 yes 3 dvd from blockbuster and be not disappointed . the visuals be amaze and the character well draw and design and the technology be well think out as well . it a simple story about human nature and how far someone will go to return home and to stand up for what they believe in . this series be why i love anime and of all the anime series out there this and berserk be my favorite . initially i be strike by just how beautiful the whole thing look and i like the idea that a kid can be a main character and not make the show seem fruity or childish like so many make for america anime some of that be o. k. but i really like more serious stuffpositive .
