I recently started watching the series Speed Grapher. It's from last year, so it's fairly newish. Probably not for most people as it's fairly sexual, dark, pretty graphic and bloody. However, the storyline is a good one, the characters are likeable and have depth. I really like how the main characters are developing. The anime style is also very nicely done. Beautiful graphics, good sound. The music is always well done. They did the opening to Duran Duran's "Girls on Film" which is really a perfect accompanyment for so many reasons. Just was curious if anyone else has watched this series?

I liked it at first but stopped watching when it seemed to become a "monster of the week" show

It was "monster of the week" until the last 6 eps or so, but the plot was going places all those time, especially after half way through the series.
I thought it was pretty decent. Had its flaws, but it was good entertainment, and one of the better Gonzo shows.

I've seen a few episodes. It looks pretty interesting and I am looking forward to seeing the rest of it. I just hope it does not grow stale before the series ends. The premise is little out there and the animation quality is fickle sometimes being really good but then jumps to being rather poor quality. However from what I've seen so far I'd say that I like it ok.

i recently finished watching this anime and i like it, but i woldn't recommend it to a kid, the opening/ending music is pretty great most of the characters where original even when Suitengu look like Sephirot in some parts of the anime

It started out promising, but quickly digressed into crappy "freak-of-the-week" eps. Not to mention the animation quality got progressively worse and worse. By the end of the series, it almost looked like the animation was done by a couple of amateur high school kids.

Most of the episodes are good, but it does have some of the "monsters of the week" episodes, but for the more part it is a good series. It had a good start, crappy middle athen a desent ending. Could of been better, but it was good.

I think the focus of the plot shifted too suddenly towards the middle, and it got repetetive
But at least the ending was nice...

Well I liked it, mostly beacuse it's crazy. Yeah, it's monster of the week but that won't stop me since the story are developing. It's rare to see a film that shows the stupidness of humans. It's not a new kind of story but I love it. And I really liked the story of Suitengu's past.
