CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

I was thinking of pre-ordering the first dvd of Scryed from Amazon.com and I was just wondering if anyone here has ever seen this anime and if so what is your opinion of it, content, story and such? I thought it looked kind of interesting and the plot sounds kinda cool, but It's always good to have a 2nd, or 3rd, or ....opinion.

If you like lots of action, a fast paced story, you'll love it. It's my favorite, anyway.

I used to watch it on fansubs, but I'd buy it on dvd for sure. *is broke*

Saw some of it earlier this year. The basic idea is that a portion of Japan was devastated in some disaster, and has become isolated as a separate island. The residents were more or less left to their own devices by the Japanese government, partly from indifference, and partly from the fact that some of the inhabitants have developed super powers. The end result is that the island has become essentially independant, although it lacks anything resembling a government. Obviously this causes some problems with banditry.

Anyways, the central government doesn't allow people to escape the island (if they have super-powers they are either forced to work for the govt or be neutralized). The story really starts when the government finally decides to "help" the people of the island, and assert its authority. In general this action doesn't sit to well with anyone on the island, and the story goes from there.


It's not a bad show, but not an especially good one either. It does have lots of action though.
