Getbackers
Blonde, hip, pragmatic and cool, Ginji Amano has the power to generate currents
with his body like an electric eel. Brunette, equally hip, bespectacled and rambunctious, Ban Mido has the mystically mysterious
‘Evil Eye,’ the power to create illusions in the minds of his foes. Together, they are the GetBackers, the best
retrieval team in the world. They can get back anything taken from clients, and their success rate is (almost) 100%!
However,
first they have to get some clients – and soon – or this spry detective duo will starve on the streets!

Getbackers is quickly becoming one of my favorite
mangas. Ban and Ginji get into so much trouble, but always come out on top. However, Ban-chan's evil eye makes it hard for
the audience to know what is real, which keeps everyone guessing. Not much of a love plot, as Ban and Ginji have no success
at finding girls, but their attempts are hilarious. Some pervertedness, but it is a shonen (male audience) series. Definetly
worth a read!

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
In a world in which the human mind can be programmed like a computer, where does the human soul end and the cybernetic
machinery begin? What does it mean to be human? From Masamune Shirow, the creator of Appleseed, Orion, and Dominion:
Tank Police, comes an epic, dystopian tale of politics, covert actions, and cyborgs with too much attitude!

I don't really like this series, but since I'm
the only one rating, I'm going easy on it. The animation is mind-blowing, but the storyline is boring. I watch this only
because of the animation. The characters don't mean much to me and the story is just dull. I wouldn't recommend this highly
to people who are fans of Ranma 1/2, Fushigi Yuugi, or Rurouni Kenshin ((people used to humor and action))
