5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must get!, May 22, 2005

This review is from: Fake (DVD)

This is an Anime take off from Volume 2 of the famous Fake series. Who couldn't love Dee?! I had to buy it to add to my Yaoi Collection. Even though it's only Shonen Ai, the most that goes on is a kiss and a Dee's sudden want to strip Ryo down and boink him, though it doesn't happen thanks to Bikky and Carol's interference. It is a wonderful OVA Movie, though there are no extras and all, it is still worth buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended for all, March 7, 2003

This review is from: Fake (DVD)

Fake is one of the most interesting anime OAVs I've ever seen. Captivating until the very end, Fake will keep you on the edge of your seats.
Fake is a story about a gay New York cop named Dee and his police partner Ryo. The pair has taken a trip to England for a little vacation time; yet what they do is anything but relaxing. A murder has been committed at their hotel, and it's up to Dee and Ryo, along with some wacky other characters, to slove the case.
Fake is definitely recommended for any anime fan, novice or expert. Fake is thirteen and up for content, but there is nothing too bad. Fake is a good anime, even if you have never seen a shounen-ai (gay) anime before.

5.0 out of 5 stars A romantic and fun vacation (murder included), February 19, 2000

This review is from: Fake [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Fake was an extremely fun video to watch, with enough comedy and romance to leave you smiling, but also enough drama to give you a reality shock from time to time. Even if you've never watched yaoi or shonenai titles before, this one is enjoyable for its own sake. There's nothing really offensive, so as long as you can handle the kissing scenes (which are really sweet, btw) you'll be fine. The animation, admittedly, isn't top notch, but the main leads are good looking and you get used to it easily. I didn't expect too much when I first watched it, but I really found it better than people said. The actors who play Dee and Ryo are good and portray their characters well, so you can see them as real people--not stereotypes. The only regret I have is that the mystery wasn't half as interesting as the romance between Dee and Ryo--and there should have been more of it! But if you're looking for a way to pass some time, there's *definitely* worst things you could think of than watch "Fake." Besides, listening to all the Japanese-English is hilarious. Finally--how's this for a recommendation--I'm going to be ordering the manga from Japan after watching this video, and I don't even know Japanese. So if you like it half as much as I did, it'll be more than worth the money.
