Andover, MA | I am. I'm a big fan of Gonzo, I love Vandread. They always have great animation (with cool CG) and fun characters/story, so I'll probably pick up the series box with the t-shirt. |

I've seen it. I do not think it is a worthwhile purchase. Rent it, sure...borrow from a friend, definitely...but that is about it. I am not a big fan of Gonzo, to be honest. FMP had a few good episodes, like 7-10 of 24. It is mostly filler.
Kiddy Grade, a recent Gonzo anime, was pretty good. »animenfo.com/animetitle,867,sngn···ade.html
Last Exile, a currently running Gonzo series, is really good so far. It is only up to episode 8. »animenfo.com/animetitle,1191,ejl···ile.html
[Edit] Forgot to mention, Kiddy Grade was just licensed by funimation. Keep your eyes peeled ^_^

I've seen it- I thought it was OK, but I'll agree with Evil Snake- there were a lot of "filler" episodes. I liked the animation style, but the plot seemed to have holes in it for some reason- I didn't understand a lot of what was happening and why, later on in the series. "How did they get on that submarine" was a big question for me.

I loved Full Metal Panic. I watched the entire first season and am waiting for the second season to come out in Japan (I heard this summer). It has a good storyline with lots of comedy and mecha action, I recommend it |
