Marvel's Wolverine on Animax

[DSP]

I watched the Raw earlier, it's still odd seeing wolverine almost bishounen like, but I mean we had hugh jackman for most of the films so a taller wolverine is no problem. It's actualy pretty bloody and Wolverine is as feral as ever, if a bit more stylish than previous incarnations, he shows off using a beer can XD

What interests me here is that he's a bit well inexperienced but I guess that's where japan comes into play as logan gets his ass kicked by a well disciplined sword user.

Still havent watched, but tell me: is it worthy?

Because I'm an huge Wolverine fan, so I'm obviously curious, but I dont want to be disappointed. I'll watch it anyway, of course, but please tell me if it sucks, so I'm not gonna have high hopes.

:laugh:

I don't know. This anime doesn't look natural to me.

Anyway....I must admit I am curious: is there a reasonable plot to this? Or is this just 'Wolverine kicks butt, episode (insert each episode number of the series here)'?

This is what I'm wondering as well. I saw an episode of Iron Man and I was disappointed. :disappoin The trailer looks like it won't be good, but I've seen trailers that look better than the actual features and features that look better than the trailers.

*points up at impression* : < so ignored I feel

anyway short story, it's wolverine we're watching that's for sure, it's flashy and atm may lack a bit of substance, imo it's much better than iron man atm if only for the lack of that really shitty cgi ;w;

I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought it would. Wolverine seems more suited to Madhouse's art style than poor Tony.

As far as I can tell the story will be more intimate than the Iron Man one, focusing on Logan's relationship with Mariko with a fair bit of gritty crime conspiracy providing the backdrop.

On the writing end, we have Kaji Kengo, who previously was head writer on GARO, taking Inoue's place.

So far I like how they're handling his powers, and the fights themselves are really well-directed.

This. Seriously, the first few minutes of the 1st ep caused me to say this, "Madhouse has just redeemed itself."

This show has done one thing other shows with Wolvie has not. Allowed him to use his claws properly. Which is awesome.

I just heard that XMEN Anime is coming out this spring. I was wondering if it's true or not? If it is, I'm game! :thumbs:
