This epic rocks my world. For any anime fans, it's a cross between Tenchi Muyo and Neon Genesis Evangelion. More serious than Tenchi, but less psychological than Evangelion--a happy medium. Blue Seed mixes concerns about ecological mass destruction and ancient Japanese myths to make an entrancing and epic story-line. The art is good, with just a hint of gore. Kusangi is the coolest character, besides Ryoga and Ranma (of Ranma 1/2), in any anime. The dubbed version is much more approachable and easier to enjoy than the subtitled version.

The Blue Seed series does not recieve much audience, and that's a pity. Its smart, savvy storyline has a unique depth to it: many of the situations (including the main plot) are directly from ancient Japanese legends. The characters, even though their initial roots are buried in the pit of cliche, are presented in a logical and sensible approach. The violence, which is most intense during the first two episodes, tends to be well-drawn and realistic. There's also something behind the gun-and-kill approach: most situations are not cleared easily by Kome's bazooka. It takes some thinking, which is missing in all but few of today's cartoons. An excellent series for anyone mature enough to handle brief nudity and realistic "violence", it provides quality viewing. Make sure you don't pass up on this!

This one of the best Animes my friends and I have ever watched! Believe me, if ya like Sailor Moon, Tenchi Muyo, and other comedic/dramatic animes, then you'll LOVE this one! I've already seen 6 of the volumes and absolutely can't wait to see the next volumes!!!!!!! Mainly, it's about this poor girl, Momiji, who just happens to be the kushinada. What is a "kushinada"? you ask,well it's a "princess" who is thought of as a sacrifice for the Arigomi. Now the Arigomi are these HORRIBLE monster/demon things. Now the T.A.C. must guard and protect Momiji, along with the help of a VERY special Arigomi, Kusanagi. You'll just have to see how litttle miss Kushinada does in this SPECTACTULAR Anime. *^-^*

This is a great series for most people that enjoy anime. Even though this tape is not a prime example, Blue Seed is wonderful to watch and discusses the important issues of ecology and remembering one's historical backround. With good characters and an interesting plot line, this series should be enjoyable for most people.

The story, animation and character voices are all very well done, any anime fan would probebly want to see this one. The volume gives a brief recolection of what has happened and then later onfolds the plot of the race of the Aragami, a brood of creatures that have been trying to destroy Japan for 1000s of years. All in all I think this one was a good anime.

This series is really cool! I love how they actually put good english voices with the characters, because usually i get subtitled because they are uncut & have better voices but in this case the english voices are great! I am totally obsessed with Kusinagi, the plant guy!!!! ^_^ I think you should really see this if you really like comedy & action mixedd together!!!!
