Summary: Outlaw Star: A badass anime
Review: This is a pretty good anime. I have seen it on Cartoon Network, but I had no Idea that they edited so much of this anime. They even cut out an episode (episode 23, Hot Springs Planet Tenrai). Plus, you kind of miss out on how some characters really behave. I had no idea that Fred Lou acted so...GAY!!! All in all, if you enjoy lots of action, a good storyline, profanity, some comedy, and a little nudity here and there, then go buy Outlaw Star.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: outlaw star is very cool
Review: outlaw star is about a young man named gene starwind gene is not exactly a bounty hunter as some people say because you only actuly see him going after a bounty in like 3 or 4 episoeds gene and his partener jim hawking actualy do all sorts of jobs as long as they can make money they own a shop that dose about any job as long as it pays good.

they start the seires off by jene and jim in a bar playing cards jean gets in a fight with a siborg because jene killed his brother and the siborg death rob(his name) wonts revenge jene kills death rob and gets a bounty on rob. that is why some might mistake gene as a bounty hunter. than they get a job from a woman she needs a body guard and parts for her ship she says her name is rachel sweet later they find out she was in decise and she needs a body guard because space pirets are after her because she stold the xgp a high tech space ship and it goes on from there

ok for malfiena she is not an androied as some people say she is a person more like a siborg she can control the xgp but id she was an androied she would be a fully macanicle in witch she is not but all and all outlaw star is a great movie the review may not be all that great but the movie is.

Summary: Oulaw Star --1 of the best animes of all time
Review: In this boxed set you get 3 dvds that have 2 disks to each so if you are wondering if you are getting the 6 dvd set then yes is your answer. The 3 dvd set has poor quality and in many ways is a peice of ... but if you buy the 6 dvd set then you are in for a real treat the quality is very good and has a clear picture. The Characters have a nice blend of personality and in alot of ways you can say they would act just like anyone you know.This is a must have for any anime fan if you already have this and are just reading this review for fun I would recommend you try and buy Cowboy Bebop which is probably just as good of an anime as outlaw star.In Genre Outlaw Star is Sci-Fi and Comedy even though at times they try to make stuff funny and it really isnt but that may just be its not funny to me. The action scenes are really cool and the series is full of imagination and has a nice blend of colors in every scene.Well This is a great buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Series!!
Review: I have to be honest, I don't know a whole heck of a lot about Anime. But, when I came across Outlaw Star on Cartoon Network, I just fell in love with the show. True, Cartoon Network edited their version to fit their guidelines, but, I got enough of what was going on to try and find the show on DVD.
Other anime series may be more in depth, some a little more funnier, but very fue can combine those two elements well enough to be any good. The relationship between Gene Starwind and Jim Hawkings is a great example. Here, you have two completly differented minded characters who seem to have nothing in common, yet they still work together to accomplish what they set out to do. Throw in the likes of the android Melfina, the ship itself, Asia ClanClan and Suzuka and you've got a great mix of characters.
Stumbling into a world deeper than they ever could imagine, Gene and Jim wind up taking Melfina and the ship, to be called the Outlaw Star, through several trials to find out exactly where Melfina and the ship came from. Along they, Asia and Suzuka get added into the mix through their own courses. And, it all leads up to a nifty little ending, I must say.
All in all, this series made me an anime fan because of it's story telling. And, how can you not be drawn into anything that has a compelling storyline?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great TV.
Review: If you have the money buy this now. Its very expensive for just 20 some episodes but the story and characters are great. If you like Sci-fi or anime you should take a chance and buy this DVD set.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a difference
Review: This set is much better than what you will see on tv. Yes there is nudity, yes there is swearing, coarse lanuage, etc. All of that makes this series feel more authentic to me, I mean you are dealing with space pirate, outalaws, thieves, all of those guys and the things mentioned above make it more believable. The Amercian censors had some fun chopping this one apart and they did one hell of a job. I feel like I am watching the series all over and a much improved verison at that.

The animation on this show is well done, the characters are great, the story is good. It does end strangely, but that is okay by me, hell it is practically a trademark of anime.

The Box is simle but stylish, the casing is well done, the graphics for the disc are nice. The menus are well done, sound is great, easy navigation also. You get all orgianl 26 episodes on 6 discs, even the hot springs episode that was cut out due to the nudity and swearing.

Overall this is a great box set of a great show and it is cheaper than buying the individual volumes. Any fan of anime should like this series, but Outlaw fans will end up watching it many times over.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: To Be An Outlaw
Review: Outlaw Star is a great anime series. I liked it for its humor and its stroyline. Things really interested me like the Galactic Layline and stuff. The main characters are Jim, Gene, Suzuka, Malfina and Aisha. The story starts out great and the series finishes great. Definetly a must have anime for everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outlaw Star
Review: When I first saw an add for outlaw star on TV I thought it would be another one of those long series of nothing good so I disregarded it as nothing and watched some other shows, but a bit later I saw an episode and I was hooked. This show is so awesome, you've got Gene your basic gunweilding alchoholic, Jim a computer wiz, Melfina a bio-android with the power to find the Galactic layline the greatest treasure in the universe, Sazuka a class "A" assasin, Aisha Clan-Clan a beast girl, and of course Fred Lowe a Gay bussinessman. But it's not all guns and humor it's more ha ha humor than other types.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cool buy
Review: Okay, so its only 3 DvDs but don't let that stop u. Each DvD has a lot more than 3 episodes in it. The total of episods comes to 26. The whole season. The only problem is that it leaves little room for any other sequil. But, its an excelant buy. All of the characters are nuts and are always getting themselves in trouble. Aisha is especily funny. Although the story sort of goes off track in some episodes, the characters eventually get back on track. It starts out with Jim (the little mechanic and hacker) and Gene (the "chick magnet" ...) They are always on the lookout for more money but they end up just sinking deeper and deeper into dept. But it probably doesn't matter because Fred Lou (the gay billionar) loves Gene. Along the way of losing money and killing k-pirates, they pick up Melfina (the quiet, "nice girl Bio Androind, Suzuka (the female and would be hot, if she weren't a cartoon, class A assasin, who I believe is also in love with Gene even though he is too shallow to tell), and ... Aisha (a powerful female cataro-cataro) but she goes with them anyway. The plot is great, the characters are excelantly portrayed, and the villins are awsome. But, it does tent to have A LOT of sexual humor, course language, and nudity (especily since Melfina owns only one outfit.) Definatly 5 stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great
Review: This is one of the best anime series I have seen and one of the few that does a good job of making the characters seem real, complete with human failings and frailty. The main character, Jean Starwind, is a troubled anti-hero who has to continually fight his self-destructive urges while trying to do the right thing. When he meets the leading lady of the show, his life changes and becomes meaningful. You can actually witness the evolution of his character over the course of the series..

My only complaint is that the end of the series seemed really rushed and I still can't completely make sense of a few things.. It has all the earmarks of a series that got word it was being cancelled and they rushed out a conclusion..
