Summary: It's Anime like this that gives anime a good name
Review: This DVD came out of nowhere and is easily one of Pioneer's best series. I bought it not knowing what to expect and was pleasantly suprised. This has one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard. I reccomend it to everyone that likes anime period.

Summary: As a fellow 30-something ex-metal guitarist, I LOVED this!
Review: This is one of my favorite animes simply because of the backstory. Like Oji, I was a serious musician in the 80's who gave it up in the 90's and I too, became a mindless office drone. So, I feel like this was written about ME! Yes, compared to the best in genre it's lacking, but it's just so OUT THERE and the situations that Oji finds himself in are so true to life for any musician who has to live with a wife and kids, that it gets 5 stars on that alone.Any musician will relate to Oji finding that his prize Flying V has been tossed so that his kid can use the case as a toy box, or having his autographed Schenker albums used for frisbees. The soundtrack is also quite excellent. Of course, I'm a huge John Sykes fan so your mileage may vary. Overall, the story is kind of silly but most musicians will LOVE this!

Summary: A Refreshing Title
Review: This story really struck a chord with me (no pun intended). For once, an anime that really takes a risk. Think about it: almost every popular anime, save those few exceptions, has either magic, mecha, or martial arts at its center. This one breaks from the pack, and with grace. Oh, and did I mention the protagonist is *gasp* middle-aged? Not adolescent, like so many popular heroes/heroines. And he's perfectly average: white collar and blah, except for when he's holding an electric guitar. Music, family, and attraction. Three very important facets of life, IMHO, and well portrayed in these four DVDs.
