Four Anime Shows That Are 5 Stars Worthy Review

Four Anime Shows That Are 5 Stars Worthy Review
by Tere Blanco

The first anime show worth reviewing is called Attack on Titans. I have been watching the show since it came out. Basically, one day some very bad giants came to earth. These giants or Titans only like to eat humans. They do not really need to eat, per say. Rather they just like to bite human's head off for some reason. To protect themselves against the Titans, the humans built huge walls.

The anime show stars after 100 years of peace. The humans have been leaving a pleasant life away from the Titans. Some have even built religions around the walls claiming that God created them to protect humanity. To these zealots, it was sinful to go outside the wall. Regardless, the main character, Eren, wants to go outside the walls. He feels curious about the outside world. To him, those who live inside the walls are no different than livestock. 

One day, a red Titan falls from the sky. Like a flash of lightning, this titan tares down the first wall. Since that incident, the anime show gets even more bloodier. There is always a sense of doom and gloom about the anime show. Regardless, it is pretty entertaining. Music wise, I like the first presentation song. The second one not so much.

Aside from the blood, the storyline and the characters, the fighting in this anime show is pretty exiting. It is sorta like the kids from Lilliput trying to take down their own Titans. The angles produced are always top notch. Truly, Attack on Titans is a 5 stars worthy show. All should be watching it.

The next anime show worth reviewing is called Gungrave. It is one of those old, classics of the anime industry. The show is about a gunner named Beyond the Grave. That is where the name Gungrave is derived. Anyhow, the show begins with Gungrave fighting some albino looking monsters.

Like them, he is a resurrected corpse. One day, he starts having flashbacks of his previous life. From then on, the show goes back to the beginning. Originally, Beyond the Grave was a human named Brandon Heat. He was a punk who only did petty crimes and the like.

For most of the show, you wonder when Brandon Heat is going to become Gungrave. There is also the mystery of the monsters and how the Millennium mafia is related to them. In the end, the anime show is about family. In Millennium, The Code of Iron states that you never betray the family. That code of conduct has helped Millennium survive

The Gungrave anime show has a lot of cool battles. They are a reminiscence of the old gunner anime shows. The best battles are always against the superior monster. The music in the show is not half bad. Overall, the anime show is pretty depressing. Still, Gungrave is a 5 stars worthy anime show.

The next anime show worth reviewing is called bubblegum crisis tokyo 2040. The show is the second part of a show by the same name. Anyhow, the show focuses on the Knight Sabers. They are chicks with robot armor suits who fight evil robots. Their main enemy is the Gemon cooperation who insist on creating the evil Boomer Robots. Needless to say, this anime show has some feminist overtones. It is best noticed in the conflict between the good girls and the bad guys.

Moving along...This anime show has tons of action. What I like best is the special robot sound that the chicks make when they walk inside their armor suits. Music wise, I like the ending theme. The odd twisting head is kinda freaky. I think that is everything worth mentioning about bubblegum crisis tokyo 2040. Truly, it deserves 5 stars rating.

Lastly, I want to review the X anime show. X was made by Clamp. It is the second part of Tokyo Babylon. Unlike regular second parts, the anime show focuses on a different anime character. Then again, Tokyo and doomsday was the main character of the anime show. In any case, the show focuses on Kamui.

Kamui is a boy with strong spiritual powers. There is a prophecy about him. He will either become a dragon of heaven or one of earth. If he becomes a dragon of Heaven, he will save the world. If the become a dragon of earth, he will destroy it. Kamui does not care about his destiny. He is only after the Shingen sword.

As the anime show continues, more dragons enter the scene. All the dragons are gathering in Tokyo. Around the middle, we discover the fate of Subaru. He is still searching for the guy that killed his sister. Once again, he got side tracked because of a doomsday problem. Still, he plays a background character in this anime show.

Like Tokyo Babylon, X has strong yaoi overtones. What I like best about this anime show is the rock and roll soundtrack. I miss the electric guitar in anime shows... Aside from the music, the anime show looks very pretty. I guess that is everything worth mentioning. Truly, X deserves 5 stars rating.
