Has anyone seen s-CRY-ed? I haven't seen it but have heard good things about it, so I was wondering about content and plot sort of stuff. I'd really like to see it sometime soon.

Hmm, I've heard of that one. Not seen it though... but I am curious?

I've watched the whole series and generally enjoyed it.
The story reminds me of X-men (rebellious power ppl vs no power ppl vs power ppl who try to control rebellious power ppl). I must have confused someone by now.
I liked the flow of the story and how the plot enfolded except towards the end (got a little tiring). But I would still watch it coz the fighting scenes are quite cool and I liked the characters. Some characters confused me by their actions and I couldn't really predict what they'll do next. You need to constantly guess their real intentions behind their actions. Kazuma, the main character is quite a reckless crazy guy (the theme song is "Reckless Fire", sure fits him well). You don't really know why many characters act in a certain way until later on. They sure take their time to explain things.
It's clean, no sex or unnecessary violence (I don't recall any gore at all). Just maybe a girl who wears a skirt too short for her job. A lot of action, which was fun.....except the last episode which was starting to become Saint Saiyan. You've gotta see it to know what I mean. >_<
I found it fun to see these "Alter Users" characters with different powers and how they use it. Yeah, I like sCRYed. ^^ Hope this helps. Hope I didn't mention anything spoiler worthy. ^^;

Anyone know about the Manga? I had considered picking it up a long time ago but didn't (can't remember why), I think I picked up the 1st Rave Master book.

I have three volumes of the manga. There is nudity in it (first volume has Kazuma fighting a topless female alter user). Discussion of sex (mild). Implied sex (which was apparently an expression of alter power - with the girl completely naked - don't ask). Most of the nudity, etc. comes into play in the later volumes.
Needless to say, I really like the manga storyline, but I don't like all the fanservice and borderline hentai. I have no plans to buy the rest of the manga, but I will continue to watch the anime.

Thanks for the info. I'll look into seeing it sometime, hopefully. The magna sounds a bit too much for me though. Anyone heard of Kai Doh Maru?

Ack the manga!! I've seen it and it was a complete turn off for me! Storyline may be good but the artwork isn't as nice and it has some elements that deleria has already mentioned. 
what a shame.

The anime is much, much cleaner than the manga. At first, I preferred the storyline of the manga; but, the more I watched the anime I really liked it more. The anime and manga are totally different.
>>Anyone heard of Kai Doh Maru?
I've seen Kah Doh Maru. It's very violent. It has a so-so story. I didn't like the story because I prefer happy endings. The artwork, however, is beautiful. If you're an artist or appreciate the art of anime, this is a must see.
