K.O. Beast

My friend introduced KO Century Beast I and II a few years ago. It's a great anime with good action and fight scenes, and lots of humor. The character designs and animation has a "kiddy" look to it, but it does go well with this series. The story was about four beasts who were captured when humans attack their homelands and kidnaped them and the villages "Jins". They were Wan for the beast world(transforms into a tiger), Mei Mah(was that her name?)from the mermaid tribe, Bud from the Bird tribe(who uses a lot of English words), and some fat guy(don't remember name) who turned into a turtle. The Jin are protectors of their homelands, but these three are supposed to be the most powerful of all the Jin ever created. While locked in a bubble, a little human girl named Uni was playing with her ball when she saw the beasts, and let them out. It was really her grandfathers doing because he wanted the beasts to escape and take Uni with her; he felt that place was too dangerous for Uni. It's not a bad storyline, nothing great but acceptable. On a scale of 1-10, I would give this about an "8".

When I was first introduced to this series a few years back, I thought it was going to suck, man I was wrong. This is one of the best Anime series I've ever seen. This series has a nice plot, cool characters(sometimes serious, sometimes silly), and some great action. The animation isn't all that great, but it's not bad either. Actually I think it works for this series. I highly recommend this series to Anime fans.
