...to anyone interested in trying it out for the first time...NOTE: NOT FOR KIDS!!!
I've also got on DVD the original and new versions of Appleseed, one of Shirow Masamune's first works. I also have the manga when it first hit the US shores in the late 80s, as well as Akira, Grey, and many others. Never thought anime/manga would have become as big as it has.
I fondly remember dragging some buddies to see Akira in 1987 when it hit the theatres in San Diego -- blew 'em away! $:-)
How does it compare to Hellsing, a fav of mine.
