Gettobakkâzu dakkanya

This get-backer agency needs better backers. While they usually get the job done, they don't usually get paid. It just never works out with them and 💰.

This is sorta like a show about avatars from the classic video game Street Fighter (all with special powers or capabilities), if they were really great guys, always hustling and always defending the needy, while scraping to eke a living with their repo service. They get things back for clients, but does the title have a double meaning? A triple meaning?

From the first episode in which they are hired to recover a kitty cat from a crooked cop, the series is pithy and fun. It's on a kid level that adults can enjoy, too. Based on a manga, GB is a 2002 release rated 7.58 on MAL. It is 1 season consisting of 49 24-minute English dubbed episodes. The first third of the show is mostly self-contained episodes. It branches out in the late teens to follow an extended battle which takes us through ep28 and then the ultimate story arc forms.

The GB are Midou Ban & Amano Ginji. Ban has the more "forceful" personality. His power is called Jagan. Once he makes eye contact with someone he can alter their perception of reality for a short period. He makes them see what he wants them to see. They never know it's happening. "Jagan can be placed inside a time-warp zone via the illusion created by the technique, meaning that to them, one minute in real life could last up to several hours," per MAL. He comes over as surly and stingy, but the truth is that he feels deeply. He often wears a half-shirt, which is odd, but he's still 🆒.

Ginji has shocking power - he's electric. Friendly, open, and generous, he says things like: "Holy moly on a sourdough rolly." In the Limitless Fortress Ginji is the most limitless one, because the LF amplifies is power. He was the Lightning Emperor; but he /left/ with Ban. From the back they have Ginji looking like a Midwestern farm wife. His body shape is strangely bottom heavy.

So far, every Ban I've seen in an anime is cool and extremely powerful, but haunted by a painful past. This Ban is no different. Ginji is the soul of the show. Life is hard. Survival is hard, but Ginji, who cares about others and wants to help them, has the key to /living/ as opposed to merely surviving.

Fuyuki Shido, the Beastmaster, controls animals. It's actually more like they're friends and animals are happy to do his bidding. Once The Volts of the Limitless Fortress disbanded, Shido felt betrayed by Ginji - Gingji LEFT them. Most from the LF feel the same way. Shido doesn't like that "snake b@$t@rd," Ban, either. He really hates the way Ban calls him "Monkey Boy." So, Shido becomes the GB's professional competition and opens his own repo service.

Kudou Himiko has the eyes of "someone who spent their life being pounded by a cold hard rain," says Ginji. Ban fills her emotions ↪ She wants to kill him. An independent contractor, she takes jobs like transporter in hopes that she'll get the opportunity to do so. Perfumes are her poison. Potions would be a better description ··· just🌬··· her potions are airborne. She can make a body burn from the inside, install trackers, shut down brain function or make puppets of people; she can do even scarier stuff. She can dose herself. Acceleration scent, for example, doubles her speed.

MakubeX is the genius hacker. Found abandoned as a baby, the pouch he was in had "Makube" written on it. He became Makube, and then adopted the title MakubeX. He was raised by Gen, ("Grandfather"), but left home to join the VOLTS. After Ginji left, he took over, but he's no Gingi. His nickname was "young demon king."

Akabane, or "Dr. Jackal" is a fun character, much like Hisoka in Hunter × Hunter-10. He's a bad guy because he's moralless, but he's not mean or cruel as a goal unto itself. Everything he does is for his own enjoyment. What he enjoys is domination and winning. As a Transporter he's often in opposition to Ban and Ginji's goals. Soon he sees them as primary targets for beheading, his personal preference for disposing of enemies, which makes him feared and hated. He don't care. Always all in black, Chupalla included, he's arguably debonaire with his polite manners, but he'll as soon chop your head off as shake your hand. He feels nothing for others.

Natsumi is the first client we meet. She's Ban & Ginji's biggest devotee. That cat was hers. After the guys recover it from the rotten cpp, she decides to work at the Honky Tonk. Ban & Ginji are always hungry, and the Honky Tonk is the sole place that will let them run a tab. Hevn is for the b👀by brothers. A buxom blonde, she procurs work for them from prospective clients. Paul owns the Honky Tonk. He's halfway between supportive and antagonistic. At least he feeds them. Most days.

The author must be an art lover because there's a few episodes that revolve around works of art. Their discussion of Van Gogh in ep9 is fantastic. In the way of animation art, GB is from the transition years when styles were moving from the late 20th century to the more polished (digital) look of today. People have medium heavy outlining, basic features and a wide variety of coloring, shapes and bigness: big bosums, big eyes, big muscles, big colorful hair, big color-palette of skin tones & old-style round eyes, etc. Some characters aren't as big as they are long and lean, like Dr. Jackal. Backgrounds are simplified lines with minimal detail. The opening song ROX. Naomi Tamura wails with guitar gitting-it-on in the background.

They get into other fun subjects, not just art. They need to recover rare blood that was stolen in order to save a young girl's life. She has "Bombay blood," which per Wiki, "is a rare blood type... first discovered in Bombay... a blood type that reacted to other blood types in a way never seen before. The serum contained antibodies that attacked all red blood cells of normal ABO phenotypes. The red blood cells appeared to lack all of the ABO blood group antigens and to have an additional antigen that was previously unknown." That's truly fascinating. Then, its: "Watch out, Ban. His hair is made of an alloy created in zero gravity... in zero gravity, metals that have completely different densities, like lead & aluminum, can be blended together." Cooooool. Right?

That's sciensy. The LF is an imposing and mysterious place with phenomenal phenomena beyond scientific description. The LF also reeks of evil government or master-villian programs (which aren't mutually exclusive w/ relig¡on). They answer most of the questions before the end. They roll it out slowly, but the LF is a major player. In the LF, Ginji reigns supreme, and some seem to have forgotten how powerful the affable goof is in there. Why did he leave? The show explains things in due time. Why did he return? To clean house and set things right⚡. Eps39 & 40 are mostly for fun. There's a hot tub scene with 🐒🐵 🐒 that seems borrowed from Blue Seed 2 - in a fun way. Before we get to the hot tub 🐵 🐒 🙉 , though, things are going to get really rowdy.

Age 12+ GB is actually most suitable for kids. There's a simplicity to the plot, dialogue and relationships. Please note the following cautions: Language b@$+ard he!! There's a creepy dude that does creepy human experiments and there's an attempted human sacrifice. In one episode they have a day with the B's: Beach, bods, bosoms, butts, bikinis, bimbos and finally, bros watching the sun to close out the day. They had a ball. Rated PG-13: Parental Cautioned.

Re-📺? Why mixed feelings? GB is marginal for adults - in the good-to-pass-the-time category, but I may never pass this way again. I would only recommend it to a young teen.

This is the best anime I have ever seen. The story is about 2 man, Midou Ban and Amano Ginji, whose job is to get everythng that was lost, back. In this case, everything really means everything. I really like the doll-like ginji. He is really cute when he acted that way. Well, to be honest, maybe Ginji is the only one with this funny figure in this movie.

The movie, not only talk about their "how to get things back", but also their complex background. Well, in this movie, everyone have their own background. There are Amano Ginji, the raitei; kazuki fuuchoin (the master of string); Shido Fuyuki (beast master); Kakei Juubei (kazuki's protector); Akabane Kuuroudo aka Dr. Jackal (the best antagonist and cool character to my opinion); Himiko (poison master) and a lot more. Even the bar keeper has his own background.

Well, the story is quite complex but yet, entertaining. So,don't think about anything else that will make you confused. Enjoy the movie without questions ask. That's the best way to watch this movie.

P.S.: For a better voices, if possible, use the Japanese audio. The sound will be much more cuter than the English audio, which to my opinion, didn't suit the characters at all.

Enjoy!!!! My rating: 10/10

This anime, along with Cowboy Bebop, revived my love of anime. It is original, full of great characters, has a healthy portion of humour, and superb animation. I cannot find more words than that to describe it, but it truly is one of the very best animeshows of all-time. The characters of Mido Ban, and Amano Ginji... it is rare to find characters that feel as if they truly are best friends. There are a few irritations though, such as a slight 'DBZ'/'Naruto'-syndrome on some of the fights, that is, they last for several episodes, and consists mostly of back flashes and silent contemplation of the various things moving through the fighters heads. It makes up for this though, with a very colourful array of characters, such as the two main characters, and of course, the personal favourite; Akabane Kurodou. This truly is, a must-see anime, for all who love the great and original.

The title was not really catchy at first, but the entire show told a different story. Upon seeing a preview of Get Backers in a new cartoon channel, Animax, I first thought they were just people accepting jobs to avenge for their clients, as in "getting back at enemies." I watched the first episode, and it turns out they are actually retrievers, taking back lost or stolen things. The Get Backers duo is basically composed of a mind (Mido Ban) and a heart (Ginji Amano).

Ban is technically the leader, who is smart and initially has two powers, the 200-kilogram grip called "Snake Bite," and the Evil Eye, which is some sort of hypnosis making victims imagine different sorts of things for one minute while something else is actually being done around them without their knowing. More of his abilities can be known as the series goes on.

Ginji, on the other hand, is a compassionate airhead who generates electricity. It may sound rather uninviting, since there have been many other super heroes who can conduct electricity as well, like Static Shock. But don't let this discourage you; Ginji is a very interesting and lovable character. He may seem like a pushover to Ban, but the latter looks after him most of the time, and both are even more powerful if they sense their partner to be in trouble.

There are many more powerful characters in the series, each with their own distinct abilities. The one I liked most is Akabane, aside from Ban. He may have a lusty thirst for fighting, but he is bloodily funny for some reason. Shido is the one I dislike. He takes pride in settling fights without help from anyone, but around half of his work is done by his animal followers. He sort of contradicts his own beliefs this way. However, with his great love and utmost protection for Madoka, the blind violinist, it still makes sense for him to be in the show. I was also annoyed by Fudou, who wants nothing but dead enemies. He only wants to kill people, a total demon. Besides, villains have to be a pain in the neck, so all the more the audience wants him to be defeated.

The sound is very good and story is smooth flowing as well - a perfect blend of action, comedy and drama. We shall see many flashbacks on the characters as we watch on, which are equally interesting and can even make some of us sentimental to our own past. Not only do we get to laugh a lot; we can also learn many principles in life, even without any of those superhuman powers.

If there was a downside to this show, it's because it has to end. Well, the series wasn't actually concluded yet. There are many questions left unanswered, stones still unturned. There have been rumors of a second set of episodes, but it's been around three years since this series was created. We can do nothing but hope for more.

I use to watch this on animax. Together with series Samurai X and Inuyasha, it was my childhood paradise. Coming to the story Ban Midou and Ginji Amano - lead characters run a recovery team. Who recovers anything lost with their uncanny supernatural abilities. For their bad luck they don't get paid almost every time. Ban and Ginji both have a dark past which unfolds as the series progresses. Some powerful characters appear in the series with different supernatural abilities which keeps it alive and fun to watch. It shows their friendship. And how people can change for good or evil.
