^ Fullmetal Alchemist is the same way. Lots of anime get shortened, change, or follow only a portion of the mangas.

Well, not all of it, naturally, but the Akira and Berserk anime barely scratch the surface of these stories which is why I said that. ;D :P

I can't even get into what's missing from Berserk or we'd be here for awhile but suffice to say Guts' time with the Band of the Hawk is a very small potion of the whole story, and the Akira film ends roughly 1/3 of the total story and Akira is actually an important character and not just in pieces in jars. Basically the story begins anew with the flooding of Neo-Tokyo. I've loaned Akira to people who've skipped school and called in sick to work just to finish reading it.

I poo thee not.

I'm more of a comic person, so I tend to like the manga, so don't listen to me... :P

Has anyone seen/read Gantz?

I haven't seen the anime yet, but the manga is amazing...

Back in the 80s I read the Akira series. The anime was so much a small part of what went on.
Lone Wolf and Cub was a good one too.

The Guyver comics were hard to come by where I lived. But I ended up with quite a few of them.

Watched Berserk and just watching episode 26 of Cowboy Bebop, what should I watch next?

Episode 26 of Cowboy Bebop, there is a PSX in the background around nine minutes in to it. Its similar in shape and has the logos in the right place, along with the reset, on/off and open buttons, thou the controller port is in the wrong place.

Found the same download on a different site, states correct length, thou its in Japanese (OVA) and dubbed in English :D.

Started downloading it, its in two parts (HJSplit), very glad you can use 7-Zip instead.

Blade Runner reference?
