Editorial Reviews

If it’s lost, they’ll get it back. Doesn’t sound difficult, but when you throw in strange mutant powers and back it up with one of the top manga franchises in North America, it’s easy to understand why Get Backers is such a fan favorite anime series!

4.0 out of 5 stars it's ok, May 3, 2007

This review is from: Get Backers - Complete Season 1 (DVD)

This isn't a bad show, I was entartained throughout, which is what I look for most from a movie or series. The only real problem with the show is that it really doesn't explore the concept it embraces. Out of 25 episodes the Get Backers actually only get back 5 things. Most of the series follows the fight of the week style in which a one on one battle ensues between one of the 2 main characters (more join later, sort of) and someone from his past, all of whom have some type of extraordinary skill or power. The whole thing reminded me of a more grounded version of Dragonball or Yu Yu Hakusho. I like those shows well enough, but they were not what I expected when I purchased this. I would give it 3.5 if possible.

You cannot stop watching until the end of the story. It is better to have season 1 and 2. Season 1 is just complete half the puzzle. Besides the fighting scene, the entire scene is skillfully written. The character design is so beautiful.

Everything that I wanted to really know was there except how far up the episodes go. For the people who wanted to know season one depicts the first 25 episodes. Awesome product!
