GetBackers is a very refreshing anime. It is another classic that I highly recommend. I find it pretty funny at times and the adventures of Ban and Ginji are always exciting. It's a little scifi/fantasy (I can't really tell) because a lot of the characters have special abilities they use to fight. As Ban and Ginji accept missions, you learn more and more about them and I think you'll grow to like them a lot. The dialogue and animation are both very fluid. I do have to give you a warning though, the story begins to drag out in the end and is not as interesting as the first twenty or so episodes. Viewers of all ages can enjoy this anime. (show less)

So entertaining! Ban and Ginji are truly amazing ;) I liked everything of them. On the other hand... Kazuki pissed me off! I don't like that type of characters who act and looks like a girl but actually aren't. There was suprisingly a lot of people whom I didn't like, but the main characters somehow helped here. I liked Ginji the most as the Lighting Emperor, it's a shame that he was 'forbidden' to become like this... to the end not much was said about Ban - what were his powers, how was he related to witches and why it was cursed... As the theme of 'last children' - Himiko and her brother. But homour and honest appearance of Ginji, his chibi versions and especially his moments with scary Akabane were thing to make you cry from laughing ;) The thing I didn't like - comming to the end there were a lot of 'usual' eps with missions with no point and then suddenly new 'important' mission which could be just the most important in the serie! and then because of those, let's say 'fillers' this adventure was too short and missed something very important and interesting. So unsatisfiting!;/ but even without that it was good ending ;)

I didn't like openings, but endings were great ;) Nice songs with funny and good animations, even now, after wathing GB I like to listen to them and watch them.

GB is an anime that I can truly recommed to those who likes funny and light series, with some good fights and inteligent dialogue. It's a tale of a friendship for a life time and trust to those nearest. Really, really worth watching :) (show less)

An excellent blend of comedy and action, keeps you laughing the whole way through while having a diverse storyline. The characters reveal more interesting parts about the their previous lives as the story progresses, keeping you hooked to find out what more is there to them. The combat/action is fluid and dynamic, adapting as they face new opponents but does not keep you bored by the person doing the same move over and over again like naruto when he learns something.
There is an episode purely for comedy after every story arc, so you'll want to keep watching to see what happens next, and to watch the hilarious episodes that makes it worthwhile and keeps you entertained. (show less)
