Well, I figure I'll just lock this, as I don't have the time lately to work on it. I figure I'll revive it, but it's best if I just let this part die off.

XD So, I managed to find something worth reviewing. I'm probably going to update once a month, rather than week because... I'd be more likely to get my hands on a new series every month.

Samurai Gun
Info from ANN (www.animenewsnetwork.com): It is the beginning of the industrial revolution, and feudal Japan is in turmoil. The ruling Shogun are wielding their abusive powers to instill fear and dominance over their oppressed subjects. Beatings, imprisonment, rape and even murder are the adopted tactics chosen to maintain their reign. The bloodshed must end. A group of Samurai have banded together, and, with the development of new weapons and new technology, they have both the will and the hardware to stand up and fight. Ichimatsu is one of these fighters. By day, he works incognito at a local tavern, in the evenings he frequents the brothels, and by the dark of night, he doles out some big-time, gun-barrel justice. He is here to help. He is Samurai Gun.
Rated: Mature (for extreme violence, bad language, sexual refrences)
Genres: Shounen, Historical
Episodes: 12
Yet another mature title XD The art style has a sort of older, 70/80's Lupin feel with new color, and takes a note from Rurouni Kenshin for location. The story is nice, it gives little details of the overall story each episode. The dub actually has more swearing in it than the original, which is rather abnormal. It isn't spectacular, but it's definently worth a look.

If you've got an anime series or movie you think I should highlight just send me a PM!
I should mention this isn't really ment as a discussion thread, so please do not post any replies. Thank you.
