Anime

Since myself and other users of this wiki have-at this point-watched enough anime and Japanese movies to create a small television channel, I figured that we could all do some summaries and rates of some good ones. Everyone is welcome to add a show to this list or change the rating or summary of a existing show as long as it has to do with a anime of some sort.

Show Rates and Summaries[]

Fullmetal Alchemist (Main Idea)[]

Rating: ******

Rated: PG-13 for violence, language, one or two suggestive scenes (in brotherhood)

Genre: Science Fantasy, Adventure

FMA

Summary: Fullmetal Alchemist focuses around two teenage brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric, who made the mistake of attempting Human Transmutation, a forbidden alchemy technique, to bring their dead mother back to life. They failed miserably and as a punishment, both lost parts of their body after going through something called Truth (a.k.a. The Portal of Truth), an alternate dimension where they saw all the facts in the universe (but later forgot most of them). While Edward, the older brother, only lost an arm and a leg (which were both later replaced by automail limbs), Alphonse lost his whole body and his soul was only saved in the nick of time when his brother bonded it to a large suit of armor. Their main objective from that day on is to find the Philosopher's Stone, which amplifies alchemy to enormous extents and will let them get their full bodies back. In this search, they become State Alchemists, an elite group of soldiers in the military (who also act as the police in this anime) with great skill in alchemy. Along the way, they face many obstacles and eventually meet a great enemy which they must fight to overcome - the homunculi. These are humanoid creatures but very different from humans. They cannot perform alchemy but they have extremely powerful powers which more than compensates for this. They are cruel and look down on humans. (See this wiki's page for Fullmetal Alchemist)

Genre: Supernatural thriller, Mystery, Drama, Psychological thriller

DN

Summary: Light Yagami, a intelligent highschool student who has a hatred for any kind of crime, one day finds the Death Note, a mysterious notebook that contains only five written instructions:

  • The human whose name is written in this notebook will die.
  • This notebook will not take effect unless the writer has the subject's face in their mind when writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.
  • If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds of writing the subject's name, it will happen.
  • If the cause of death is not specified, the subject will simply die of a heart attack.
  • After writing the cause of death, the details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.

Light immediately begins to experiment with the notebook, killing off criminals and killers who's names are shown on the television, or online until the previous owner of the notebook- a shinigami named Ryuk- confronts him and tells him that as long as Light owns the notebook, he will follow the human around invisible to everyone else. As Light kills off more and more criminals with identity still a secret, this criminal killer is given the nick name Kira by the public. A secretive detective nick named L, soon catches onto Kira, and begins to track him down with the help of the Japanese police force.

Wolf's Rain[]

Rating:*****

Rated: PGish language and violence

WR

Genre: Adventure, Post-Apocalyptic, Supernatural

Summary: Wolf's Rain is about a group of wolves - Keba, Hige, Toboe, and Tsume- trying to find Paradise. Paradise is a "made up" place that only wolves-with the help of a flower maiden named Cheza-can find, that will appear when the world is near it's end. Since wolves have been said to be extinct for almost 200 years, and are hated in many cities, the group disguises themselves as humans. Unfortunately, Lord Darcia and Jaguara also want paradise open, but only for the nobles* (people who have not started out as wolves), they each begin to pursue the pack separately, starting the race to Paradise.

Sgt. Frog[]

Rating: **** (By Buffy)

Rated: TV-PG (with some adult jokes)

Amongst their friends are the Hinatas (an extradorinary family of three) an angolian alien named Angol Mois whose sweet demeanor comes with cheer at the prospect of cutting the world in half, and many more quirky people.

The humor in this anime is great, in my opinion. There are the people who love this anime and those who have never heard of it. I urge you to give it a shot today!
