Best official art of all time.
>>153990818
delete this.
>>153990877
ok. thats it.
nuking my thread.
>>153990785
The manga is still one of the best shounens ever.
>>153990898
ah fuck, I can't delete my own thread.
>>153990900
it wasn't really that good desu.
>>153990898
Have fun with that, gimp.
Gungrave. For some reason I thought it was cool when I first saw it. Now it's generic.
>>153990818
Get Backers?
More like Bare Backers, amirite?
>>153990785
Only oldfags will remember this one.
>>153990931
By shounen standards, it absolutely was. Good luck finding protags that good in modern shounenshit.
>>153990956
I prefer to call it 'what Hamatora didn't have the balls to do'.
>>153991002
It's not because there are two male protagonist that they have to be gay...
>>153990994
Ginji was pretty retarded and Ban was a gary stu with his devil eyes
>mfw Devil Arm and Angel Arm
nope
>>153991064
Hamatora attempted the same queerbaiting, multiplied it by 3, and still didn't deliver. That, to me, is some chickenshit tactics compared to GetBackers.
>>153990785
>>153990785
I remember the trap
>>153990785
Man, when I was an innocent kid I didn't realise how shamelessly fujoopandering this series was.
Is GetBackers actually this gay? I remember the anime as a kid and planned on checking out the manga sometime, just wanna be prepared.
>>153991390
It set a whole new bar for fujopandering at the time. I blame GB for inciting the ludicrous fujopandering that gave us dreck like Weiss Kreuz, Houshin Engi, and Saiyuki.
>>153991366
The only thing I remember is the trap.
>>153991487
Only if you screw on the goggles really tight. The art fucked with a lot of heads because they pretty much just said 'fuck it' and did what they wanted with it, like the examples in this thread. It's ultimately a bromance fighting/comedy with a freaky story all around. It hasn't aged super well, but it'll give you more entertainment than, say, Flame of Recca, and most of the characters are multidimensional enough to not grow overly stale.

>as a kid
>what what? I don't remember GB being that old
>air date: 2002
>the GB anime is as old as Shaman King
>GB aired 15 years ago
jesus christ, I always thought it was from 08-09
>>153990785
>>153991566
I'm that way with Gundam Wing. I keep thinking it was a 2000s airing but it was actually early '90s, and then my head hurts.
>>153990818
>>153990877
>>153990934
>>153991493
I don't remember GetBackers being this gay when I read through it the first time.
>>153991784
Because it's not, it's just the official art is.
Here's an anime not many seem to remember on this board, or at least it's never talked about anymore.
>>153991922
It gets constantly brought up in threads like those though.
I need to finish it already.
>watch Get Backers as a child
>woah this is so fucking amazing
>watch Get Backers now
>woah this is so gay
What happened?
>>153992000
Still has the creepiest ED of any anime I've seen.
Bunch of good ol' obscure combining robot series back in the days.
>>153990785
It's pretty damn good though.
>>153990785
>Getbackers is by the same guy as Kindaichi Case Files, Bloody Monday, Area no Kishi, Kami no Shizuku and several others
Why did I never learn of this before
Get Backers turned to shit for me soon as you realize how fucking OP they made Ban.
>>153992572
>area no kishi
just makes me realize there are no good soccer mangas out there, besides fantatista ofc.
>>153992610
Giant Killing is good
>>153992610
>soccer
kill yourself
I quite enjoyed the portrayal of late 90's Russia, the Pakistan arc was really cool too.
I must say, I expected more smooth talking when I started the series, not "Yugo gets tortured in ridiculous ways and perseveres wait did they just freeze this guy to death and set him on fire holy shit"
>>153990785Just One Minute
>>153990785
It was fujoshit as fuck. But I still enjoyed it when it aired because it was also chuuni as fuck.
The only shit I remember about this anime was the name and something about giant chess pieces. I think it aired on Toonami before Zatch Bell or something.
