A fantastic series!!!
Gungrave is the story of Brandon and Harry, two young friends that join a mafia group called Milleneon. The series begins with Brandon and Harry as ordinary young men and continues with their activity within Milleneon. This includes their movement within the group, as well as how they change as time passes.

This is a really powerful anime. The story is brilliant- it sucks you in very quickly and keeps you gripped throughout. My description doesn't really do justice to the plot, which is very complex, moving and intriguing. Brandon, who really is the main character, is very well developed, as is Harry and the various supporting characters.

The art-work is really beautiful, as is the music, which helps create a heavy, haunting and tragic atmosphere. I really can't recommend this anime enough, it's without a doubt one of my favourites. You won't regret giving it a chance!!!!

Wonderfully dark anime
Based on the playstation 2 game, gungrave is a about a guy called beyond the grave who is resurrected to take revenge on his ex-best friend, who is now a criminal gang lord. Beyond the grave (brandon heat) is one of those strong but silene characters, whereas harry is ambitious and would do anything to get power. The story essentially revolves around these two, where the first volum sees how these two guys and three other friends live in a neighbouhood where everyday is about survival and no hope.

The first episode was paricuraly slow and boring, more of an introduction, but the next three episodes are awesome. The story of how these guys try to survive everyday hoping for something to come and save them, no matter if this is the wrong way, along with a dark atmoshpere, interesting characters and action make this a anime to watch out for the future. Awesome stuff.
