4.0 out of 5 stars A Decent Psi-Power Series Worth A Peek, June 26, 2010

If You've already seen the earlier series E's Otherwise or the movie Push this series pretty much is a mix of those two and while it shows characters using their incredible powers it tries and give the series a moral storyline in it as well. The two main characters two brothers who from early childhood show psychic powers are turned over to a unknown group by their own parents who have grown fearful of their childrens abilities, and after fifteen years the two brothers escape their captors to try and reclaim their lives in the outside world. The series shows as the two brothers stumble upon situations and people who they decide to help for some reason or other and along the way a few shadow conspiracy groups pop up to either hinder or help the brothers along the way. There is a major story plot in the series that the brothers try and solve but it seems that the writers also want to convey the questions of humanity. The series seems to ask what will happen to humanity, if humanity does evolve and can begin harnessing their full potential abilities will humanity become angels or demons as well as a few other questions put into the series. There show is pretty dramatic with some decent fight scenes also don't expect any real humor as they've made the series a little dark not to the point of Death Note but about close to it though. The set is in widescreen format with just the Japanese subbed audio and sadly the extras are just trailers so not much on that end, the set comes in about five dvds put into a thin dvd case that holds all five but again it's pretty sturdy and not one of the cheaper ones. For fans who like drama or serious animes here's a decent one to watch but if you want anything on the lighter scale you probably want to pass this over.

This product arrived a bit ahead of time, something that greatly impressed me, and is in perfect condition. I've been waiting for this series forever, so I was very happy to get it~
