[QUOTE=Lindus]I try not to pay attention the voice actors (truth is, I usually can't remember them). But the good ones are versatile enough that they can be part of very different roles in very different shows, and still do a good job. The animation was really what kept me watching the series at first. I started watching a couple episodes in, so I needed about 10-15 minutes to fully grasp the basic premise. But during that time, I was watching and just thinking how nice it looked. I liked the style of it a lot.[/QUOTE] Heh, I pay alot of attention to voice actors. I just can't help it. If I recognize a character's voice but can't figure out who else has his/her voice actor... It drives me insane. I'm so tired of hearing Steven Blum's voice, it's unbearable. (Blum's most memorable character is Spike from Cowboy Bebop) The animation in Heat Guy is beautiful. Definately one of the best I've ever seen.

[QUOTE=Sage Kaley]I liked the little I saw of it and as you guys have pointed out, I got to see it on MTV. This still shocks me so I will not speak of it. However I did like it. The art style was different and sometimes looked a bit odd but it was usually very good. I liked the crazy guy. He was a mob boss I believe, I don't know, he was the token crazy guy of anime and I loved him. I also loved Daisuke and that wolf guy. The wolf guy episodes were good. See I don't know much about it, I only remembered Daisuke's name because his nickname was Dice and I started calling Daisuke from DNAngel that. Ah but I did like the show, I wouldn't mind seeing it again. The ending theme was good too, I don't know what it was called though.[/QUOTE] The crazy guy's name is Clair. And the werewolf's name is Boma. Clair's my favorite character. And I think, I like Boma and Daisuke equally. Those three characters stood out alot more than others. Very likable characters, I guess. (I found J to be very uninteresting...) The series is really good. I'm suprised that it doesn't have that many fans. I've only seen half of the series. As I said, I wanna buy the rest but buying each dvd separately destroys your wallet. I suppose, I could download them. But there's just something about owning the dvds that I like more. (I prefer buying dvds over downloading.) The opening is called "Face" which is a great theme. And the ending theme is called "Kokoro no Sumika". But there is a song they play in the background during some of the episodes called "Tribe" which I absolutely love.

I love the One Piece on toonami. The fact that it's butchered doesn't bother me. I still find the show very entertaining. Recently I've been picking up the manga. So far I have the first three volumes but have only read the first. (I've been distracted with the Fruits Basket manga) Shanks is the greatest character in the series. I love him. :animesmil

Yea, the dub wasn't the best. But it was really good compared to other animes, I've seen. And I liked the voice actors they chose for all the characters. Who knew... Vash = Clair... Yea, Clair's voice actor is the same as Vash from Trigun. That bothered me a bit at first but not anymore. The main reason it bothered me is that Vash is a pacifist while Clair isn't. I'll have to say the thing that wowed me about the anime was the animation. It really was beautiful. I liked how they mixed a bit of CG into it. Before I bought half of the series, I made a thread about it on the adult swim forums talking about it. They said that it wasn't that great and that it was on MTV. The fact that it had been on MTV made me a bit uneasy buying it. But now I realize that it was money well spent. Heat Guy J is great.

Most people don't know anything about it. So they figure that someone who likes anime basically likes cartoons. And many people find it childish. Sadly, whenever people think of anime they automatically think of Pokemon.

I never got to see it on TV. Had to go out and buy the series. But luckily for me, Best Buy was selling the "Heat Pack" (Which contains the first half of the series. A total of four dvds containing four episodes each) for twenty bucks. I really want to buy the rest of the series but I don't want to have to buy 'em separately. All in all, I love what I've seen of the anime. The characters are very likable, the dub is good, the music rocks (I just downloaded the OST), and the fight scenes are neat as well. My favorite characters are Vampire Clair and Werewolf Boma! In fact, yesterday I made wallpapers for them, hoping to upload them here since I think they turned out really good. Heat Guy J needs it's own wallpaper section..

This is one of my favorite animes. :animesmil Anyone else like the series? Also... Why is there not a Heat Guy J wallpaper... thing?
