its a very good anime, i just started watching it, its basically about alchemy (buso renkin 武装錬金 = Arms Alchemy) Spoiler: the begging of the first episode The story begins when high school student Kazuki Muto is killed one night saving a mysterious girl from a monster, only to wake up in his school dorm, believing it to have been a dream. However, he soon finds out that dream wasn't a dream at all when a giant serpentine monster attacks him and his sister. PS: NOT A FMA RIP OFF! i hate how people assume that just beacuse it has alchemy its a FMA rip off
I saw the first episode, and it is well done. It is in no way FMA. I like how it starts off, and I really like the main character's friends. Especially the guy with the "Elvis" hair! I would love to watch more if I ever do get the chance to.
But that is the best part in my opinion. He kinda looks like that guy from Shaman King. (His name escapes me at the moment) I wasn't too impressed with their buso renkins. "arms on the legs" and an uber lance shaped like a shark head. But it was still good.
It's such a good Anime, one of my favorites, actually. The plot, characters etc. You are going to love the ending, I know I did. (And I've the entire thing at least a couple of times)
Its closer to a rip off of Bleach than anything, but besides that, its not a bad series, but pales in comparison to Watsuki's other work.
I love this anime. While it did deviate from the manga, it was still really good and funny. I love it when they try to go into the homunculus's lair and strike a pose
this is what caught my attention into watching the show, ohh and the legal English dub of the first episode is available on itunes for free
Busou Renkin >>>>> FMA One of my all-time favorites, regardless. Great plot, great characters, great art, great soundtrack, etc.
I only saw the first episode of Buso Renkin, but I read the entire manga series and I can honestly tell you it was amazing, and I'll keep reading it forever. lol Papillion.
