What I have just witnessed was history unfolding before my very eyes!
Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu, it’s a myth, a myth so old that many of today’s anime enthusiasts wouldn’t dare watch it. People on this site rate this anime so immensely high, that one would eventually come to wonder what that ridiculous score is based on, and give the whole thing a try. Are these people merely the retainers of old, classic shows that have been made in a style that has long since come to an end? I sincerely believe that it’s more than that.
To make one thing very clear, this anime was made before
...
I was born, so if I am biased in any way, it would be towards modern anime, whose style is more of my cup of tea. Still, Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu was fascinating, in a way that no modern anime is. Beware though, I have rated this show high from a very objective perspective, my personal enjoyment factor was not as high as my overall rating and if you’re a fan of modern animation, you might have a hard time getting used to or enjoy the series. You may not be suited to sit through the meticulously fleshed out dialogues, as well as philosophical, ethical and political discussions presented here, that is alright. What I think though is, even if you don’t like it, you can’t deny this works greatness.
Story: 10/10
History is a thing long in the past for us but something that was very present to people of the corresponding era, something that moved their hearts and lives, changed the direction in which humanity developed in a way that we may not be able to comprehend today. Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu is like that, it’s like witnessing history happening live. The anime does nothing out of the ordinary, no supernatural occurrences or absurd plottwists to keep the viewer hooked; instead it progresses slowly into a more or less foreseeable direction, still managing to show some surprising developments, that are all still in the viewer’s theoretically calculable range of anticipation. That said, it should also be mentioned that things only just start picking up pace past episode 30 or so, so you might need to bring some patience. Everything about the plot and world of Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu is so painstakingly accurate in its construction, that I have yet to find some logical fault within any of the presented material. Think people bear those incredibly German names because they thought it was fun? There’s a reason for that. Think they use battle axes in close combat because they thought it was cool? There’s a reason for that too. I have never before seen an anime that was so well planned and executed, with a pacing that matches its progression as well as it does. Sometimes it’s slow and conversations drag on for a very long time but that is also a characteristic of the time it was made in, people didn’t mind not having things explode in each and every episode.
Art: 10/10
Now, get this. This anime, made in 1988, displays better visuals then some modern anime. Don’t believe me? I didn’t believe it myself at first either. What we have here is an OVA of 110 episodes, with 24-30 episodes released at once in four periods over the course of ten years. What does that mean now? It means time, a lot of time. Enough to, with the limited possibilities of that time, polish the animations to a degree that can rival works of the current era. Expressive facials and movements, detailed surroundings as well as fluent animations are characteristic for this anime. The art style may come over as a bit westernized but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Sound: 10/10
Actually, I don’t know how to rate the OST at all. It includes many classical, orchestrated pieces, some of which are well known, now is that really bad or really good for a 1988’s anime? I’ll just go ahead and rate in favor of the anime, partly because the style of music fits the widely royal and dignified atmosphere, which is especially apparent in episodes involving the Galactic Empire. The seiyuu however are definitely top notch, even more than that, I daresay they are legendary. Some of them even have active and important voice acting roles in modern animation, such as Vegeta (Dragonball Z/ GT/ Kai), Kotomine Kirei (Fate Series), Tohsaka Tokiomi (Fate/ Zero), Hatake Kakashi (Naruto), Jiraiya (Naruto) or Matsudaira Katakuriko (Gintama), and these are only the ones I recognized. Even back then their performance was admirable and deserves a lot of respect.
Characters: 10/10
Those are people, characters like real people with relatable emotions and developments, and all of them are unique individuals. Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu has a main cast of such epic proportions, that even random passersby on the street are blessed with distinct facial features of their own. While, at least from a certain point of the series on, it is clear who the protagonists are, other people around them have names, stories, thoughts and commit to actions of their own. Those people, even if they are only meant to appear but once on screen, have a real impact on the direction in which history goes. Characters exist in a broader historic context, a span of time that far exceeds the timeline depicted in the anime itself, no one person is without fault, immortal or inviolable and everyone and everything leaves the impression, that it must come to an end someday. None of the progressions are rushed or forced and always stay in realistic bounds, a character only ever shows extreme behavior if the situation demands it, or if he is likely to do so because of his personality traits.
Enjoyment: 8/10
This is difficult, mostly due to the fact that I believe that watching this anime while being skilled in understanding the Japanese language would reap different results. It sometimes gets mentally exhausting, reading through the subtitles of each and every dialogue and a great battle might come as a breath of fresh air in this partially stale environment. Nevertheless, there is also a great deal of suspense, action and even romance to be found in Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu, if one listens or reads as attentive as I have been doing it, one might crack a smile or even laugh at a few scenes, although it’s not meant to be a comedy anime in general. This anime has everything, every single thing out there, it just may demand a bit of endurance from its viewer to reveal this large spectrum of entertainment.
Result: 10/10
This might be… the best anime; maybe. I’m not being an elitist here; I just think that Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu is so well done as a whole, that it would deserve that title. A single man should not be so audacious as to crown a Kaiser of Anime though. I rated this show a ten, I did it because I think no other rating would be appropriate. Even by taking into account that my Enjoyment wasn’t quite that high because I am just not used to anime this old, I can reach no other conclusion.
That said, even bearing this disadvantage, Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu has fascinated me on a completely different level than many other anime and it might just fascinate you in the same way.
I for one salute before one of the greatest animated works ever created.

When the original Hellsing Anime aired in 2001, many people were left disappointed. Rightfully so. To that time, the Manga progression was nowhere near even remotely finished and the staff had to come up with their own story and ending for the series. This past animation has left a bitter aftertaste in people’s mouths, something that Hellsing Ultimate now attempts to wash away. So what came of the project that was meant to furnish the series with a worthy animated piece?
Hellsing received a similar treatment as Fullmetal Alchemist has; a new Anime was made that followed the Manga rather meticulously. The result is something that
...
is actually very much worth watching and stays true to its roots, which is also due to the original material actually being finished. Hellsing is a dark, atmospheric, balls to the wall action spectacle that still comes with an intriguing setting to keep the viewer interested. If you feel like a straightforward plot with badass gun and magic wielding vampires in an excellent combat firework, then Hellsing Ultimate might be for you.
Story: 7/10
Two words: vampire *****. The second word is kind of a spoiler, thus the censoring. There is a lot of vampire fiction out there but Hellsing achieves something that most of them aren’t capable of: being interesting. Not only vampires but also the church, ghouls, magic and a spoilery third group are involved, everything of which is hidden from the public eye of modern Britain where the story is set. The plot generally revolves around the vampire hunting organization Hellsing, with their leader Integra who has an extremely powerful vampire of her own at her command. That would be Alucard, the Anime’s protagonist who is currently hunting his own kind as he was ordered to do. During one of his missions, he ends up transforming a female police officer into his subordinate to keep her from dying, another part of the main cast is born and her name is Seras Victoria. Now all of that is just the beginning of a story that continues to spiral into an over the top pandemonium of several action-movie elements. It may sound like everything’s going crazy – which is kind of true – but all of those elements still blend into a powerful fuel that helps to keep the show going. Few comical situation are also an addition to the old Hellsing animation, although they fail to organically blend into the situation sometimes. The focal point may undoubtedly be the brutal, unrelenting and vicious battles but still… vampire ***** man!
Art: 9/10
This is probably the strongest suit of Hellsing Ultimate, here we find a very distinct, dark style that keeps providing most of the atmosphere, combined with purposeful exaggeration to emphasize emotion or certain movements. The art is fluent and sharp, colors clear but not so bright as to tackle the mood. It’s a very adult kind of style that is geared towards being as badass as humanly possible and it works. All of the visuals of Hellsing Ultimate are amazing, fitting and memorable, there is just no way to see Integra’s face and mistake it for another character form any anime out there.
Sound: 8/10
The score of this anime is a wild mix of sacral melodies, atmospheric orchestral arrangements, German war or opera songs, rock, metal and electronica. There is a lot going on but oddly enough, all of those different influences don’t serve to create disharmony. It’s probably because the music is so properly geared towards the scenes it is used in, rarely feels something out of place. In certain sections however, a heavy metal piece would have been more apt than having a myriad of stringed instruments doing the music. Some of the seiyuu cast seems to be the same as in the 2001 animation and they are still doing a good job. In some cases though people could have laughed a bit more manically or screamed a tad louder, just so there would not be such a huge discrepancy between their voices and the corresponding animation. Also could I personally never really warm up to the voice of Alexander Anderson but that is probably personal preference.
Characters: 8/10
If you’re looking for an anime with intriguing and complex character development, keep looking, you won’t find it here. That’s not entirely fair though; the anime is not utterly devoid of developing characters, although hardly anyone but Victoria ever changes. It’s still a great cast for such an action-heavy setting that doesn’t call for intricate advancements. People can handle guns, people can put up a fight, people are badass and some of them have boobs, what more could you wish for?
Enjoyment: 9/10
If and only if you can stop thinking about things for just a second, you’re going to have a good time. Hellsing Ultimate is absolutely batshit crazy, over the top action and also just a bit more than that. This anime can be a lot of fun if you can let it happen, thinking things over to much or purposely looking for mistakes ruins your fun. It’s not about being detailed or accurate about anything; it’s about gunfights and explosions… mostly. I don’t mean to reduce the show to its combat components; there are still plenty of other things going on that demand attention. When everything’s said and done, the whole enjoyment factor probably hinges on the first impression. What did you think after the first ten or twenty minutes? That is probably how the whole anime is going to be for you.
Result: 8/10
Hellsing Ultimate is an upgrade from the 2001 animation in many aspects and if you already were a fan of the series, you will love it now. If you didn’t like the first anime attempt, then you may still very much enjoy this one. Hellsing will always be there for you if you just want to see people having their damn heads blown of, it even provides you with a reason for all the bloodshed happening. It is very raw and certainly lacks the precision in story and character development that other productions like Monster or Evangelion have but it doesn’t have to be a masterpiece to be very much worth watching.

“Pupa is the very definition of the word horrible. In fact, it’s so bad that I had to use a dictionary while writing this review, to look up words that accurately describe how bad it was.” – Hanimir 2014
It’s not easy finding words for what I have just forced myself to behold. There must be an objective opinion for everything, but how can such a thing be achieved if one sees himself confronted with the definition of the word horrible? Such is Pupa. Sometimes people just long for something that is bad, something that can make them appreciate other anime more, something that gives them
...
a means of measuring quality, the far end of the spectrum. If that is what you looking for, look no further, if not then this anime is just a monumental waste of time.
Story 2/10
So what is the story actually? Apparently it revolves around two siblings who were once the victims of domestic violence for some reason. The girl seems to have been a monstrous abomination from birth, capable of easily mutilating humans and consuming their flesh. Her brother seems to have no special characteristics, other than being infected by some kind of virus, whose form, effect or function is never explained. Anyway, so then there’s this other woman who kind of likes to experiment with everything in the world and then there is this secret organization that kidnaps the siblings and does experimental things and… I don’t know. I probably just spoiled you but such a thing cannot be helped with a total of twelve, four minute long episodes. A lot of the story elements are never properly disclosed in the arbitrarily thrown together chain of events, to the point where some things do not even make sense at all. Not going into detail, there is not much more to say here other than that it’s bad.
Art: 2/10
Visual Quality does not help in any way to have Pupa appear in a better light, character arts are mediocre at most and backgrounds are naught more than atrocious. That in itself would not suffice to justify a score of two, if it wasn’t for the god-awful censoring attempts. Black stains and white bars do not help to emphasize a shows atmosphere. I even found myself burst out in laughter that one time a guys severed torso was censored and he just slumped over to reveal his wound while the smudge that was supposed to cover him up did not move an inch.
Sound: 4/10
It is alright, the opening theme is fitting and pretty good so that is something. Not so many good points on the ending theme however and the rest… well I don’t even really remember much of it. Let’s just say it wasn’t good like everything else about this anime.
Characters: 1/10
Jesus Christ on glow-in-the-dark rocket roller-skates. Okay so what do we have here. Let’s start with the male protagonist Hasegawa Utsustu, whose entire existence is probably defined by his clover hairpin, much like people from other anime that shifted their conscious mind into a pair of glasses, just not as funny. He’s a masochist who likes getting eaten by his sister, also he regenerates perpetually so he’s fine with being eaten. No sir, I kid you not. The female protagonist is some kind of monster that eats humans; her favorite food is her brothers’ tasty brawn, sometimes she seems to lose control and kills people. No sir, I do not jest. There are side characters but nobody cares, they don’t actually do things or seem to have any impact on the situation. The characters behavior is in no way relatable or logical, there is no reasonable character development or reason to feel sympathetic for any of the cast. Pupa is probably the pinnacle of bad characters and there are a LOT of generic harem anime out there, starring recycled archetypes.
Enjoyment: 2/10
This is the one instance where the word ‘Appaling’ is truly fitting. At least allmost, we're not quite there yet. There is nothing wrong with horror elements or gruesome animations but Pupa continues to be grotesque without reason. Whenever new bits of the questionable plot are revealed, you end up not craving more but shaking your head in awe at how the events are devoid of all reason. There is not anything you could derive some manner of enjoyment from here, except of course if cracking up over how bad everything is can be called a form of appreciation.
Result: 2/10
Let me get one thing straight then, this does not deserve to be rated 1/10. Appalling is, when watching an anime causes a mental stress so great that it becomes unbearable to watch anymore. Pupa is not that yet but it’s certainly on the far end of anything I have watched so far. If there is someone out there who feels offended by this review because he really likes this show, hell if I care. There are no words I could produce to make Pupa look good and you sir, whoever you are, should stop to base your enjoyment on how many intestines and chunks of flesh you see flying over the screen.
This is the most objectivity I could muster, saying anything else then what I did would be a blatant lie. Move along, there is nothing here worth watching.

Gintama? Gintama. Hmmm, Gintama... Gintama or not Gintama, that is the question.
Now this is a show I've wrestled with for a long time. Many of my friends pledged almost fanatically this is the best anime in existence. I watched the first episode. So this is it? I was not impressed. As a person who found pleasure in the darkest and most gloomy kinds of settings, I would almost immediately say that this was not for me. Everything was just so weird and appeared to be arbitrarily glued together.
I was so naïve.
At some point I picked Gintama up again, I’m one of the people who are
...
not easily moved to laughter but still, there had to be something to this… Let me tell you this, Gintama is a journey, a pilgrimage. You will not appreciate it after two or three episodes, even twenty may not be enough. It took me sixty whole episodes when I was finally thoroughly entertained but it was then that I realized: Gintama is like a snowball rolling down a mountain. It’s barely recognizable at first but the next time you turn your gaze in its direction, it will have turned into an avalanche.
Story: 9/10
Sooo… yeah, this is actually hard. Gintama is composed of a series of mini arcs that have no real connection to each other. You can’t call it a consistent storyline but it’s also not really episodic, there are also fillers organically weaved into the style and pace of the anime. A strange kind of hybrid, that still works somehow. We have different little events like the Benizakura, Yoshiwara or Popularity Poll arc, which all are amazingly done. Action, drama and most of all comedy, Gintama’s got them all and none of them are bad. Also, because I can’t find a better place to do this, let may tell you a few things about the often overlooked setting. The pseudo-medieval, post war Japanese capital Edo with modern technology, invaded by a multitude of alien races called Amanto. Sounds utterly random right? Wrong. It is my firm believe that this setting is actually the backbone of Gintama. Why you ask? Because it allows for the greatest number of possible scenarios, different people and places. You can have a samurai, a rebel leader, an alien and a penguin costume guy added to the cast and nobody bats an eye, because it still feels natural. Never forget the setting, it makes this anime what it is.
Art: 10/10
It’s strange, when I started watching I thought to myself ‘This looks somehow generic’ but at the same time ‘This looks somehow unique’. It’s hard to explain but that’s the feeling I get from Gintama. Visual quality may not be top notch here but it gets progressively better, a fact that is especially apparent in latter battle sequences. I would leave it at nine points but there’s another thing… facial expressions. They are beyond hilarious, I won’t say too much about it but you will understand once you have seen a few exemplary episodes.
Sound: 10/10
There are a few very iconic and memorable tracks on the Gintama OST, that’s probably due to the fact that they are used so frequently but that doesn’t mean that I ever got sick of them. Audio is mostly bright and uplifting, fitting to the animes focus on comedy. Opening and ending themes are also pleasing, notably Donten and Stairway Generation. This would also be a eight or nine if it wasn’t for the seiyuus. These guys are BRILLIANT! Every voice fits its character and Sugita Tomokazu is probably the most unique voice I have ever heard in anime. He’s now the voice of Gintoki for me, forever. Kugumiya Rie is a rather well-known name, revered for her roles as your run of the mill tsundere girls. Kagura was a kind of character that was probably new to her but she still did an excellent job. There are a dozen other examples but I’m not going into debt on all of them, only thing you have to know is that the voiceover job is amazing.
Characters: 9/10
Alright, so this is the deciding factor that makes this anime awesome. Here we have some amazingly thought out characters and not just for comedy purposes, most of them have a backstory, even the vilest of antagonists are not just pure embodied malice. This is also what causes the anime to take time to get going, you have to get to know the characters. A naked random guy is very much different to a naked Isao Kondo. Almost all of them are likeable, memorable and most of all funny. We have no focus on development here but such progression would do more harm than anything else. It takes time to get to know them and that process is very important, changing a well-established character after that process is complete doesn’t strike me as a good idea.
Enjoyment: 10/10
It takes time, 60 episodes to get it rolling, 140 episodes to have me almost dying of laughter but it was well worth it. Gintama maintains a consistent, no, increasing level of entertainment over the course of its 201 episodes. It’s already hilarious and would have been even better if I was capable of understanding the Japanese language without subtitles or if I’d seen more anime to understand all the parodies going on. Knowledge of basic Shounen Jump, Ghibli Movies, NGE, Doraemon or Gundam widely enhances the spectrum of jokes you can laugh about. Even without that and as part of a western audience, I found myself crying out in laughter over a majority of the jokes, there are just so many of them, no way you can miss everything.
Result: 10/10
So are all these people right, is Gintama the best anime of all time? I dare not to pass judgment unto that, simply because Gintama is so unique and unconventional that I feel it falls into a category of its own. There is no competition for this anime in its specific category because it’s the only one that ever made it there. This is not the best of all anime, this is just Gintama, don’t lump it together with all the others! Even if they’re brilliant, if they’re entrancing, if they’re masterpieces, don’t make that mistake. I myself who is speaking so highly of this anime have other favorites; this is simply Gintama, no need for comparison.
If you plan on taking a shot at Gintama and you’re not completely hooked after the first few episodes, bring a lot of patience, it will pay off.

Okay, first is a thing you probably hear from a lot of reviews on this: I wasn't into boxing when I picked up this anime.
Not only that, I wasn't into sports at all. Just generally keeping my distance from sports anime, I overlooked this gem for a long time. Honestly, who would suddenly pick up an anime about boxing without any prior interest in the matter? I would, you seem to be considering it while reading this review. Curiosity would guide me to do these things on a regular basis and sometimes I’m very positively surprised. A bit later I caught myself watching as
...
much as 12-16 episodes a day. It was good, I couldn’t believe how good it was. How did I come to enjoy boxing so much? No idea, it just happened. This anime just happened on me and almost blew me of my seat. At first I didn’t know what it was, everything just fit so well together that I found myself longing for the next episode. How could I go to bed when there was still more episodes waiting for me? I was very close to giving it ten points, sadly I give those only to a really illustrious circle of my absolute favorites. Nevertheless, Hajime no Ippo is one show that should not be missed.
Disregard your skepticism, do it now. You won’t regret it.
Story: 8/10
Ippo doesn’t have an overly complex story to it, there’s just some guy finding something he’s passionate about, aiming to become stronger. Sounds easy right? Yeah, just don’t go assuming it gets boring. Progression is quite linear, there’s a training period, the fight and then some comic relief or something for the feels. Still, every one of those periods is amazingly entertaining and brings variety to a battle heavy anime. Also there are no filler episodes, so that’s another good thing.
Art: 10/10
It’s hard to not go about this without bias, this review is from 2014, the anime aired in 2000, that’s 14 years of evolution in graphical quality. That said, Hajime no Ippo’s art is brilliant for its time, it comes with a unique style that probably won’t get many viewers too droll over the scarce female cast but emphasizes the rough mood of the boxing male population. It fits the series well and just generally makes everything more memorable. On first glance, the characters may seem bland but that’s only because there not as over the top as in other examples of the same genre.
I’m not usually someone who puts much emphasis on art but this is sports, complex movements have to be depicted at least somewhat accurately to keep it enjoyable. This is elementary, you have to know that there’s an actual basis to what you’re watching. Ippo has that. In fact, this show had some of the best battle scenes I have EVER (excuse the caps but I was simply in awe over this) seen in anime. I’ve had my fair share of battle shounen and the like but what I’ve seen here was beyond intense. We are after all talking about boxing and fights are an elemental part of the series and yes, those are astonishing. Ippos fluent animations are really uncommon for the era it was aired in, far above the anime’s general visual quality. They’re easily on par with many a combat in modern productions and we’re still talking about aired in 2000 here. Apparently though they had some leftover cash for the third opening, made me wish the anime itself looked just as good but that was a mild disappointment.
Sound: 9/10
Let’s take a look at the audio category. First the seiyuus, who also did a great job here. I can easily recall the voices of Ippo, Takamura, Aoki and Kimura from the top of my head. I experienced them as fitting and memorable especially during fights or while the characters were fooling around. I don’t see myself as very qualified to have an opinion on OST’s, I’m no huge sound freak myself and barely actively listen to what’s going on in the background but as far as I could tell, there was nothing out of order with the music. What I did recognize though, was a single track that always played in decisive moments, an adrenaline pumping, Goosebumps inducing and emotion steering piece of music. You will recognize it when you hear it and it’s my sole reason for going up to nine points for sound.
Characters: 9/10
Now here’s a, at least in my opinion, extremely important point in sports anime. A lot of enjoyment depends on if you can the side of one of the characters that is involved in the competitions. Does Ippo make you do that? Without the shred of a doubt, yes. There are so many well worked out characters, you can side with almost anyone in a fight and celebrate for them if they win, or get worked up over their defeat. Everyone stepping into the ring, even if they’re only there to make the protagonist shine a little more, has a convincing backstory, a reason for victory. Sometimes you even get the feeling that someone else has a better reason for winning than the main character and then you end up rooting for them instead, because you think they deserve it, because they earned it. Even the ones with obvious villain faces do have valid reasons, they’re not simply evildoers who want to pummel someone and watch them bleed lying at their feet. You know, it’s not just the main characters or those who have a lot of focus; even the side cast is well done and makes you love and remember them. I have to admit that there is no super huge development with most of them though but that’s okay, whole personalities rarely change just by winning at sports. It’s a process, slowly building up confidence that can sometimes be crushed with a single blow you didn’t see coming and when it’s relevant, Hajime no Ippo does that too, especially in two cases that shall not be named here.
Enjoyment: 9/10
If you’re looking for a load of fanservice, turn around now, this is no place for you… except of course if you’re keen to feast your eyes on well trained, muscle packed male torsos. That aside, this is no show for the weak minded, it’s intense, it’s exciting and you’ll be at the edge of your seat watching it, cheering for your favorite character. The only problems you’ll ever encounter with this would be, if you didn’t watch it with the same ingenuity as I did. Bias towards the sport, art, or genre won’t get you anywhere, just let it happen and see where it takes you. Hajime no Ippo brings explosive action but not without taking a break from it once in a while. If this is what you came for, you won’t be disappointed.
Result: 9/10
So what can I say? If you’re not badly appalled by a boxing themed anime, old visuals or can’t live without sufficient big breasted, scantily clothed tsundere characters, then you might very well enjoy this anime. You might even learn to love it as much as I do, someone who never cared about any sport to begin with.
I know I didn’t give Ippo the masterpiece score but who says you can’t love something while still staying a little objective? Give it a try, you might find a new favorite.
