This four disc release from the action packed anime series Heroic Age includes all 26 episodes of the show, following the epic story of how many years in the future, humanity wanders the galaxy, waiting for a prophecy to come to fruition about a savior who will lead them back home. Extras with the set include trailers and textless opening and closing credits.
This series had me a bit curious for a while. It looked a bit too out there for my taste but I gave it a go and it surprised me. From the start to the finish the action and fighting are almost non-stop which keeps it interesting. The story line is pretty well done all around, although it gets a little strange toward the end. Nevertheless, it is very entertaining and enjoyable. I am not sure why its rated MA, there is no nudity and not really any strong violence. Overall if you like a good adventure story with good characters( which by the way are some of the best of any series I've seen), drama, action and cool scenery, then watch it. Definitely, worth watching.
What's great about it: Story, characters, and action/battles
This chilling release from the horror anime series High School of the Dead includes all 12 episodes of the show, telling the story of a group of high school students with no choice but to take up guns bats, and household objects against a hoard of bloodthirsty zombies.
Aside from all the "fan-service", which is quite a bit", this anime is just a fun show to watch. I had been curious about it for a while, and decided to look into it. One of the best overall series I have ever seen. The character development is very good and well-balanced. Each person in the story has their own unique background which allows you to better understand their perspectives. The one thing though that I love most in the series is the action. The shootouts and zombie beat downs were awesome. You can't help but laugh and smile when it kicks off. If you are an anime fan and want to see a series that won't disappoint you then give this a try.
What's great about it: Action, drama, comedy, characters
What's not so great: I want a season 2 to come out
This hard hitting release from the sci-fi anime series Blue Gender includes all 26 episodes of the show as well as a full-length movie, following the story of a distant future earth in which an insectoid alien race has infiltrated society, forcing humanity to be displaced to a secondary planet - where they plot to recapture their home from the creatures.
Blue Gender is one of the greatest, yet one of the least publicized series out there.I bought this series on a gut impulse. I am a big fan of anime and have been for several years now. Over time I began watching and analyzing different ones I've seen. Sadly though, many series turn out to be disappointing. This series is the exact opposite. I had never heard of it, or seen it for sale anywhere. I saw the cover and read the synopsis and got hooked. I bought it and it was one of the best video purchases I ever made. From start to finish it is action packed, dramatic, fun, and emotional. This series may be a bit much too handle at first because it is very gritty and has incredible realism to it. If you are a fan of anime and are sick of series disappointing you than blue gender is for you.
What's great about it: Characters, action, shooting, interesting story, plot twists, complexity
What's not so great: They never made it into a live action film.
