The man’s story.

Let’s go, Brandon!

Sorry for starting the thread, Anonymous.

Because we didn’t put into words that it was for each other…!

I still keep something like a guidebook or collection of materials for anime.

I thought there would be a BD-BOX released for the anniversary, but that didn’t happen…

I will never forget how everyone called out Brandon and Harry’s names at the end.

The anime that is still etched in my brain and won’t leave me.

Honestly, I thought it was going to be a fantasy series in episodes 1 and 2, but then when the past arc started, it was different from what I imagined!

Well, no matter how you look at it, this is a painful ending… The more the story progresses, the more it goes in that bad direction…

Throughout, I feel like saying “stop messing around!!!” to the main characters!

>>13

I’m sorry… I’m sorry…

>>13

It’s such a perfect performance…

Harry’s dream was really tough, wasn’t it…?

>>17

When I looked in the mirror, my face was…

Big Daddy is to blame for everything.

>>18

It was my favorite character.

I took in a child raised by a friend.

I was able to have someone like a trustworthy son.

On top of that, I thought it was ridiculous to love the person I care about and their child, but when I consider my daughter’s honesty, I realize that this old man has lived sincerely as well…

It’s sad that Harry has forgotten the names of his old friends.

I forgot too, sorry Bunji.

>>22

I’m not forgetting that, you know!

>>22

There was an explanation that it’s not that I’ve forgotten about that.

>>27

Is that so?

Sorry, Bunji.

Let’s watch Once Upon a Time in America too!

>>24

It’s a masterpiece, but as expected for an older work, the ethical views of the main characters are quite troubling!

× I’m forgetting.

I was too busy to come right out.

Is that so?

>>26

Indeed.

I was extremely busy and extremely tired.

Was it Ellie?

The existence of the heroine that I thought was unnecessary.

Shidgaralde’s performance is too good.

Do we need zombie elements?

If my favorite couple is taken by an old man, I’ll have no choice but to kill.

That stupid son’s episode is incredible, isn’t it…?

You should take a look.

Once Upon a Time in America

Let’s go, Brandon.

It’s an anime where I thought at first (Is it some kind of poorly animated battle between non-human characters…? Hmm…) but then ended up watching it with a face like Kyogoku-san after eating a decent sweetfish.

I love the part where I get lost in memories of my younger days and then see my current self in the mirror and go “Whoa!” too much.

I love scenes where people eat sushi heartily…

Blardawn!

>>46

I really loved that scene and imitated it for a while.

I love the way the last diner scene is portrayed.

Everyone’s favorite elevator scene

>>48

Even with the same situation, it’s completely different between the game and the anime.

I wish more anime like this would come out…

>>50

That senior who shoots without hesitation over there is cool, isn’t he?

I was powerless against Superior…

>>50

The time we worked together was short, but we were a great team, and you even came to visit the grave.

I don’t know about games, but that’s precisely why it was too potent for me at the time.

>>52

And those game original elements subtly hold the anime back…!

More than half of it is the past story, isn’t it…?

https://store.steampowered.com/app/892210/GUNGRAVE_VR/

I’m sorry, but I only drink whiskey.

>https://store.steampowered.com/app/892210/GUNGRAVE_VR/

Wait, what is this…

Wasn’t this anime’s past arc about 2/3 of the story?

There are still people who are trapped by this anime.

Me too.

In the game, I wonder how many times Bunji has revived, you know?

Eddie…!

I don’t usually recommend enduring until the end, but for this work, I make an exception.

It’s fine, really.

It’s interesting, but I was expecting a stylish battle…

In the game, Grave is pumped up, spinning a coffin to his upbeat theme song and unleashing special moves as he takes down his past comrades in a bloodbath to protect the daughter left behind by the woman he loved…

It feels like OD Grave was heavily influenced by anime Grave wanting to pat Mika’s head a lot.

I also like the quiet opening with shells and gunpowder swirling.

They’re expanding into various media beyond games, huh…

I’m tired today, so I’ll catch up on it later, but it was really a great piece of work…

It’s not good when former colleagues go in a negative direction…

>>74

But it’s just as painfully difficult not to change like Bunchi… that organization…

You imitate running at an angle.

Harry was crying his eyes out in his dream when he called Bear ‘Dad.’

>>76

It’s nice to see that the Harry couple was actually quite a lovey-dovey couple.

Although they worked hard on the Bunchi battle, I felt an overall fatigue in the animation during the action scenes.

>>77

If I think of it as a result of reallocating resources when needed, it doesn’t feel so bad.

It’s a battle with zero elements of losing if it turns into a prolonged fight, but I really like that Bunchi switches to quick shooting.

This guy might be the most pitiful of them all.

I don’t have many opportunities to show it, but I like Brandon’s all-back interior mafia style.

I pretended to climb to the top, but I really did love you properly, Harry…

†Beyond the Grave†

>>83

Almost no one calls me by this name.

>>85

Is it being influenced by the doctor’s sense?

But the Kuzu group is lame, bro!

Bunji is a man who, in a sense, is the strongest because he followed his beliefs and trusted one person without being influenced by the organization.

What I remember is the blue sky.

What I remember is the shining clouds.

What I remember is

It’s incredibly impressive and I still remember it in its true sense.

In the game, I was surprised to see Sherry appear as an enemy.

I feel like it was 2.

Brandon… No, Beyond the Grave…!

>>91

What?

Bunji had become the kind of guy who immediately shoots anyone he dislikes, which is quite concerning.

>>92

It’s really tough that everyone has become a living shame due to the combined effects of mental disorders caused by transformation and degradation from pure aging.

Rather, there’s more salvation in a zombie without will.

I can’t shoot you… It’s just that reaching the truth is incredibly tragic.

Even though we understood each other so well…

>>95

Yeah

The direction where everything can be inferred just from the ED returning to color is something everyone should imitate.

It’s nice to watch the last highlight video on Christmas.

I can’t help but see how rough the organization has become since Harry took over.

>>98

It’s only natural since they were doing whatever they wanted using monsters.

Shelley…

Yes… Father-in-law…

Ultimately, it is cruel that Augman can be confronted normally.

What the hell is that center head of Cerberus?

Just that

Big Daddy is really the worst.

Wasn’t Brandon Punch able to do something about it?

It was a work that was conscious of Kenji Hamada.

>>105

Keni Hamada and Tsutomu Isobe shine brightly within me.

“I can’t possibly shoot you… was one of the few performances in my voice acting life that I could praise myself for getting it right in one take, as Satoshi Hino talked about on the radio.”

Just chatting for a bit, and seeing how easily Bunji pulls the trigger makes me think that all of Brandon’s subordinates have probably already been killed.

It’s a bad ending, but because there’s a glimmer of hope at the end, it also seems like a happy ending in a way.

You’re great!

Isn’t it time to remake the game?

It’s really tough to see Harry breaking down, and when I talked about visiting the grave, he just responded with a “Yeah…” and that moment made me feel a lot.

The negative effects of surviving either by augmenting binge eating or by stopping it and letting myself die are really coming out.

When young Harry washed his hands in the bathroom and suddenly looked in the mirror, the transition to his current self was so sharp and perfect.

It’s a sad scene that even Mika, the last stronghold, is being called Brandon, but I couldn’t help but laugh a little.

>>121

I thought the same thing in Shigurui too.

Shall we go after a long time?

Visiting the grave… with Toshiaki and the others.

Don’t hustle at your age!

Why are these guys so clumsy…?

Why did you send the treasurer first?

Necrolize requires a specialized device to perform regular full-body blood replacement, so it would stop functioning once Dr. Tokioka, who was handling that work, was killed. At that point, it was checkmate.

But you know… it’s freedom.

In the scene where Harry says that everything he wished for was right here… it really makes me sad.

I still sometimes dream of a future where Brandon and Maria are properly together…

>>130

The conversation isn’t starting!

>>130

Harry’s response

If you can kill with an aug, then any kind of activity will make discipline disappear in an instant.

Doctor Tapioca stubbornly says “Grave.”

No one else is saying it.

>>134

In the first place, it’s the kind of sense that someone would leave the organization and give themselves a fake name like Dr. T.

I liked this line that was cut, “I liked this discomfort,” even though it was a deleted line; I think it represents Brandon’s character.

Since I’m a voice actor, it seems that it’s quite rare for my performances to be approved on the first take, which leaves an impression.

By the way, Koyasu got all his performances in Bobobo first take, so I mistakenly thought I was at the peak of my voice acting career.

Dr. Tokioka and Butler Tokioka are brothers, huh?

It’s nice that Brandon is the only one who realized that their paths had diverged significantly the moment he forgot about his past comrades, even if just for a moment…

The overseas version of the Blu-ray has been in color ED all along.

It’s strange that it ends so beautifully despite being this painful!!!

It’s a late-night anime, but the voice cast is incredibly luxurious, isn’t it?

It’s only because of the times.

The anime feels like a brand, and the game feels like a grave story.

In a game, they shoot so easily that I can’t believe they are the same person.

>>145

Grave has a significant side as the absolute “I will never allow anyone to threaten Mika” man…

I often see foreigners with their brains fried.

What is this ending?

The golden age, huh…

It’s such a pain to equip, so let’s just keep breaking it and make it a scene where we go back from the grave to Brandon!

>>149

The compression of the artwork and the story are synchronized, it’s amazing…

Even though Yasuhiro Naito kindly drew a simplified costume for the anime…

I thought I would turn this into a manga after Trigun ended…

What, you wanted me to die, right?

Speaking of which, I promised, didn’t I… that I would someday build a magnificent grave for you.

If you want, you can buy this cemetery altogether.

I love the scene where Brandon shoots Harry with a gun, but they end up laughing together after running out of bullets.

Brandon has a sense of his remaining ammo, and the subtitle of the previous episode being LAST BULLET is a clever play on words and is the best.

I love how the aesthetics of the gangster genre are packed in so much that it drives me crazy.

>>161

It’s almost like an anime version of The Godfather…

Hey everyone! Don’t misunderstand that just because we’re best friends, you can know everything without me saying anything!

I have a feeling of wondering where I went wrong, and at the same time, the feeling that there was no other way given Harry’s ambition to rise endlessly.

Even looking back at it now, the amount of fun packed into it is truly amazing.

Well, the game has aliens involved and the settings are quite different from the anime.

It was too potent for me when I was a high school student.

What is this awkward first episode… Huh, a sudden flashback episode?!

How much more is there to do? We’ve reached episode 14… We’re back in the present!

My past friends are going through something terrible…

Now!

Click

…Haha

Hahaha

Ah hahaha

Let’s go, Brandon.

Ah

I cried.

>>167

Is this where it becomes a colored ED?

>>173

I finally realize that I’ve returned to those days.

Crying again.

In episode 2, the older brother suddenly reminds us of how scary the mafia is, it’s intense.

I was thinking, what a year it was, since the show that followed this one was MADLAX!

>>170

MADLAX is also Yoshisuke Kuroda…

>>176

I used to see Kuroda Yosuke everywhere back then…

>>182

The person said they thought they would die from overwork in the past few years.

>>182

I thought it was a joint signature from multiple people because I see it so often.

I feel like the episode with the elevator will be the first and last time I experience the feeling of suffocation while watching anime.

I should have seen hundreds of them since then.

Even if I say I want to do this now, I probably won’t get the project approved…

To be honest, I thought Gundam would do this with Orphans.

>>172

There was a time when I thought that in the end, Olga and Mika would be at odds with each other.

I was honestly taken aback when Big Daddy actually liked this kid…

I couldn’t understand what you were saying, so I rewound it.

>>174

Although it’s for the sake of fitting with the game

What is this guy saying to a woman who is about the same age as his adult daughter…?

It’s nice that all of Brand’s superiors have retired and are living their old age.

There are many anime where the first episode is the most interesting.

There aren’t many animes where everything after episode 1 is kind of weak, but then becomes really interesting.

>>178

But the stories about Lee’s brother aren’t really interesting…

Even in Iron-Blooded, there was Mika…

When I realized that Harry and the others, back in their young days, had no money and were just pathetic punks, but that it was the best time because they were having so much fun with their friends…

>>183

I gained strength by seeking more and more! But it’s sad that I’ve lost what I originally had.

In reality, everyone wanted to go up together…

>>183

But he was a powerless kid, so he had no choice but to lose… that’s why Harry is always trying to go up and up.

I wonder what the original feel of the Blood War arc is…

>>187

No, the past arc is all original content except for the elevator!

Among them, it feels somewhat like an original anime, doesn’t it?

>>197

It’s the same as the original…

>>185

A character that anyone can see was designed by Taihiro Naito, who is probably also featured in a game.

Is this an anime original?! With such a strong character?!

I wonder what Naito thought when he saw this.

I’ve completely lost my own elements, though.

>>186

Didn’t we have an endless screening of episode one together with Kuroda?

>>186

I feel like they were having a really fun conversation.

I’m sorry, Brandon! The crying that follows sounds like laughter, and the acting is just amazing.

It’s nice how there was nothing they could do when the opponent pulled out a handgun in episode 2.

Ah, so you’re just a mere small-time punk…

It’s great that the meaning of the first episode, which was hard to understand, becomes clear.

>>195

It’s nice to have another episode in episode 15.

The sense of impermanence is amazing, considering that even Rad, who brought death and terror to a level that changed the world for punks like Harry and Brandon, is ultimately just a punk and insignificant to real mafias.

>>196

So you understand that Millenion is way too amazing, right?

If a work like this comes out from that game, then it’s bound to be enjoyable.

I had fun too.

I’m sorry, Brandon! I’m really sorry…

The performance is wonderful because you can’t tell whether they are crying or laughing.

I think I liked this, and since then I’ve generally started to follow Kuroda’s scripts for TV anime.

>>202

Well then, this bottled fairy…

Rising through the mafia, just when the story seems to drag on.

The flow from the sudden development with the appearance of the creature-transforming drug to the present has been outstanding.

Please stop at the last point.

These guys were bad, but they weren’t evil, right? I was crying.

In the first place, in the game, she was a prostitute named Maria and a customer of Big Daddy…

After watching, let’s talk and then go to sleep right away.

The only way to process my feelings after finishing watching Gungrave is to sleep.

The source is me.
