Fantastic!!
This is my most fav anime ever..the anime ending a bit different from the manga(i prefer the manga's ending..the anime ending quite unlogical).. all its ost are really awesome =D
Definitely A Masterpiece!!!!
Where do i start, this is one of those all time favorites that will never be forgotten. The story itself is truly amazing, the animation and especially with the fightscenes. The movie was twice as good as the series, and the OVA's just ended and answered all of the remaining questions. I liked the way it ended, (i was put to tears lolz). It doesn't matter if you like anime or not, just watch this...
Still Loving it!!!
I remember to watch it almost all the time. Never get bored of it!!! Everything about it gives cool or maybe I just like swords.
Life Changing!!!
This was an AMAZING anime.
It kinda sucks that the last two story arcs were done by a different studio, though. I hate fillers.
The OVAs were the best that I have ever seen for an anime, though they did nearly have me in tears. I felt really pathetic, considering that the charecters were all fictional and animated. Still, it's worth watching the entire series just to watch the OVAs.
Speechless
I've been in love with this anime ever since it aired on Toonami when I was in the 6th grade and I'm in the 10th. Favorite anime and highly recommended to anyone who has never seen or heard of it (hard to not have heard about this show.) No disappointment here, although there's no storyline after Shougu whoever (I forget) but still highly recommended.
Wow
It was a great series, although a lot of things seemed to go unresolved.
The OVA was so sad, it was a lot more serious and darker than the series. But that made it more realistic and was still very good. Probably one of the more dramatic anime I have watched.
Great Animee
Love this series, it is very good as well as the action and the characters. It is funny but at the same time serious.
The Best Anime Ever!!!!
I love this series. Non stop entertainment with a mixture of comedy, action etc.... . The most important part is that one tries to resolves his mistakes. I recommend this to everyone. A must watch anime series. ^_^
the fights are good and the story line is nice but the dialogue is annoying like it seems so lame lol also at first it was confusing with the concept of the "reverse Blade"
