Has anyone seen this series, or does anyone else know about it? Sci-Fi aired it not too long ago and finished the series, if I'm not mistaken. It's a shame that it only had one DVD set release, because it's the greatest anime ever created and it follows the manga exactly. Granted, I haven't seen the entire thing (I'll have to get around to downloading the remaining episodes in English), but it's still absolutely amazing. Additionally, the English dub is incredible. Liam O'Brien is a fantastic voice actor and fits the part of Tenma perfectly.

Am I alone in this?

I've seen a handful of episodes here and there on SciFi's Animonday block, this aired about...oh I'd say about six months or so ago and finished two or three months back (thats guess work mind you, this was one series on and I remember it being on either right before or right after Requiem for/from the Darkness). It had a catchy intro song, and looked like a solid anime. I rather enjoyed the voice acting, but having missed some episodes here or there I had some trouble following exactly what the plot was, and the fact that the series on SciFi do not rerun but rather move on to new series has left me open to the idea of watching this.

I need to see this myself. Hey, Carlos, do you have this, by chance? I'm sure you do, considering you collect quite a bit of obscure titles.

i MIGHT have it somewhere, though the chances are rather slim. this was back in the day when i saved everything by burning shit to dvd-roms

I have the first and only DVD box set, but I don't lend out my things. I have a thing against it.

No worries, Sanjo9, nobody could force you to lending your DVDs if you're not comfortable doing so. The main reason I asked Carlos, [a.k.a. terradeath] is primarily due to the fact that his anime collection was mostly downloaded off of bittorrents.

@Carlos: If you're unable to locate your digital copy, I'll understand.

I can bring my DVDs for a viewing at some point if there's ever an issue on what to show next.
