It's over.

Fuck.

Fun anime all in all, the ending was a bit of a let down through. I probably won't read the manga, but will watch the OVAs at least.

I saw a glimpse of this years ago and finally decided to watch the whole thing.

5/10 for me. I liked the concept, but the anime tries to take itself way too seriously at times which ruins the mood of the fighting and comedy scenes.

Simca was cool in the beginning, but quickly got annoying towards the end. After 25 episodes I feel like I've only gotten to know Ringo. Every other side character was ultimately useless.

I'll check out the manga in hopes of amore fleshed out story and characters.

Honestly this series was amazing, but some of the characters and not to be sexist but mostly women characters were written like shit.

I loved the series, but that ending kind of pissed me the fuck off.

Honestly amazing series, but some characters and not to be sexist, mostly women characters were written with a slight mix of bitch/annoying.

I loved the series but what type of fucking ending what that?

ALSO WHAT ABOUT THE 60 POUND CHEST?

What the hell, that was one of the worst endings I've ever seen hahaha! I should remember never watching anything made by Toei ever again, it always turns out to be shit in the end. It gets 2 points because of best girl Ryo. 2/10

Very terrible ending, very interesting concepts though. Had some really weak writing at certain times but entertaining nonetheless.

The story had no point but it was funny and Ikki made me laugh all the time. My favourite character was the split personality Agito/akito he was the coolest in the show.

So the final battle wasn't even between teams and Ikki gets as many tries as he wants. What the hell.

He built up lots of friends who trust him in the end. The crow finally flew. I really hate this ending and the ova skips way far into the plot. Guess I will have to find the manga

well that was far from perfect but not gonna lie, it was pretty damn cool. It kinda reminds me of sonic riders, one of my favorite game ever and that's why i think i enjoyed this anime a lot.

there was a lot of little things that i didn't liked but the thing that bothered me the most was the ending. it ended so suddenly and they didn't even had the time to celebrate. they could have showed that in the credits instead of a simple black screen but no... >.<

I give this anime a 6.5/10 (mostly for the enjoyment)
now time to read the manga!!

Awesome series! Really liked it, especially the soundtrack! Bummed about the sudden ending though. Guess I'll have to read the manga then.

That ending. I don't even have words for how I feel. It's somewhere between disappointment, anger, and surprise.

Considering it's been 10 years now I don't think we'll be getting a sequel.

I hated the anime air gear and here is why:

Story: 3/10, personally I liked the concept and that is the reason I set my mind to watch it in the first place. It's pretty decent and easy to get. And like other spots anime it's makes you hipped well not in my cast). Well there are some points I wanna highlight like when that megane girl spoke how did ikki learn such tricky moves and uses the law of Physics to use those moves up against his opponents even tho he's a illiterate really makes my ask the same question how? Maybe this'll be a secret forever.

Animation: 4/10, well I don't wanna complain about the animations but it wasn't good enough to catch my application.

Character: 2/10 the character development is rubbish. It's like they didn't give time to other characters besides ikki. Like the three sisters, simca, his friend blond dude). So it's feels quite empty.

Soundtrack: 5/10 it was decent.

Overall 3/10 I didn't enjoyed it at all and it still makes me angry to a certain degree where my inner self tells me to burn this shit with the author.

I get it can feel a bit eye-rolling to have brought everyone back to lie down for Ikki's jump but it does try to make you appreciate the journey a little bit. The flashback of Ikki jumping off the tower doesn't really make sense as they showed Rika seeing Ikki getting swooped up by the bird from jumping off the rock with the horn from an earlier episode. The whole vest thing I have to assume it's a manga thing where he takes it off (I haven't read it yet).

The music was damn good for this final episode as they either remixed them a bit or they put sections of the soundtrack they didn't use for any other episode which was a good move.

And about that ending, it's not very fulfilling but I found it somewhat memorable and wanting more for better or for worse. It's a sudden ending that leaves everyone hanging but it really sticks with you as the music cuts out when Ikki lands, you hear Ringo and Ikki's exchange, and then dead silence as the show cuts to credits. This episode was nothing but chills down my spine and its still a very enjoyable show rewatching years later despite itself.

There are still 3 OVA episodes, but basically a go read the manga ending.

It was a fun ride and I liked the series overall, even tho it started slow and without a proper hook.

Air Gear was a fun watch, it's just a shame it had to end where it did. It didn't even feel like a final episode. It was a good episode, but it just didn't wrap anything up, like at all. It definitely needed another series. A really fun show though, with fun and interesting characters. It's definitely worth the watch, and the soundtrack was one of the best in any anime.

Air Gear get's a solid 7/10 from me.

Te quiero mucho Ringo. Gran ultimo salto, aunque pierde el factor increíble después de tantos intentos. Una serie con altos y bajos, pero está bien.
