Gungrave was a 9/10 animu though, everyone should watch it.
>>
>>333392030
Eh, //SIGN and the //INFECTION games were fairly self-contained, and you didn't need to watch the anime for anything other than to understand some throwaway references and cameos. //GU was a bit weirder, though, since there were a lot of character introductions and lore that don't make a lot of sense without watching //ROOTS, but watching that before finishing the games will spoil some big third-act reveals. It's a bit of a mess.

It was actually much better than the games, the latter could easily be skipped, since they were just mediocre pre-Gears of War third-person shooters. Although the first and last couple of episodes would be goofy as shit if you didn't know the series was based off a game.

Is that the one by the guy who made Trigun?

nah, you didn't need to do that at all.

Probably the best vidya adaptation and its lowpoint is reminding you of the source material. Can't find another anime that comes close to the mafia arc, and that's tragic.

>>333392539
Sure he did character design at the very least, he's got such a distinctive style.

>>333393556
That's more like "you need to play an entire separate game series to understand the anime"
