Note de sowbi
I started watching this show by accident but fell in love with it soon enough. Every episode is a revelation.
The GetBackers are Ban Midou and Ginji Amano. They are retrieval experts, getting back lost things... for a fee...which they never manage to get. But these are no ordinary guys. Ginji can generate electricity with his body like an electric eel and Ban has an extremely powerful grip called the SnakeBit and he can make a person hallucinate with his 'Evil Eye' or 'Jagan'. Their past is very mysterious and although you get to learn something of Ginji's, Ban's is still shrouded in mystery.
Along with Ginji's friends (all of whom hate Ban. Actually almost everyone who meets Ban hates him. Unless you're one of his countless fans watching and sighing over him in front of your TV) from his younger days when he was part of a gang called the volts, the GetBackers have a lot of adventures.
The animation is very beautifully done, with some scenes having breathtakingly detailed art. There is, of course, a lot of BL slash fanfiction based on the show and the show itself does have enough fan service to warrant it. What is interesting is that when I tried reading the manga (there was too much of it and I did not have the time), the fan service always seemed more heavy on the T&A, targeting male fans. The show, on the other hand, while featuring several well-endowed women, clearly prioritizes slashy service more.
The series may start off slow, but picks up quick enough. Every episode gets funnier and funnier. My fav. would have to be the Venus Di Milo ones (or should I call them the Statue of Liberty ones?!!).
Anyway, I hope I've made everyone who has read this want to see it at once. And I hope the Animax version of the series (and NOT the ADV version) will get released soon in my country.
So, how long will it take you to like this show? Just a minute!

The major fault of The Village is not in the script, or acting, or direction. It is in the promotion. Because I do not want to reveal all all I'll say is that people should watch the movie without seeing its posters, taglines, trailers, or should disregard them completely.
If you watch this film with an open mind, with no preconceived notions (on account of the director), I think you'll like it a lot.
The actors are very good, but the directors' imprint is seen very clearly in the dialogue delivery as well as the expressions. The direction and cinematography are both good.
Finally, everyone complains that this wasn't scary at all. I don't think that was the point of this film. It is one ofthose that make you think. But more than anything, it is a love story, and thats all.

This film is a rip off of Seven, right down to the surprise intro of the villain.
However, that doesn't make it a bad movie. In fact, amid all the trash that Bollywood just unleashed, this is a pretty interesting Indianized version of Seven. Instead of the sins, they have put in a different sort of a motive, which is actually well thought out and laid out.
Acting is pretty good, especially of Sushmita Sen. So is the direction and editing.
On the whole, I would recommend it, as it is a good thriller and it does not lose its thread and sink into melodrama, as how Hindi thriller movies usually do.
