This show is pretty hard to write a review for, but i will try if you have seen the show you know what i mean.
Getbackers is about two guys. One is named Ginji who was the leader of the most deadliest gang in hong kong called the Volts. He was called the Thunder Emperor because he could generate electricity from within his body. The other character is named Ban. He is able to make a person, who looks into his eyes, experience a dream (Gengutsu) for one minute. He cares a lot about money and both of their past remains a mystery during the first few episodes but you see flashbacks. However, they become close friends And you soon learn that they Had known each other as kids even. they form a group called the Getbacker. From the title, you should be able to tell what is it they do. They can take back any stolen object, of course for a fee. But they seem to have the worst luck doing with money and usually after they get something back, they end up penniless. This series is funny yet sad as well. They try to leave their past, but it comes back looking for them.
Get backers has lots of action and comedy. The fight scenes are alot like yu yu hakusho except for of the better graphics. Another good thing about this show is that the plot is Very original, Which you don't find very often now in anime's.I mean an anime about retreaving Valuable items lol. But the show isn't all serious. There are lots of funny parts. Like the very very dark anti hero. Which i will not name XD, From Rich to poor in seconds, From fighting over a hot girl. to Fighting with great power levels. But don't get it mistaken. no one in this show is overpowered like dragonball z. Like i said its much like yu yu hakusho in action wise. It is overall a good show and if you have free time you should go check it out.
Genre: Action/Adventure/Comedy
I give get backers a 7/10
