Starting Notes: To be frank, I don't understand what SJ had against this series, I LOVE it and if it hadn't been cancelled, it'd be my #1 series. For Serious. 4 Volumes crying
Synopsis: Zombie Powder has the power to raise the dead, and grant the living immortality. In order to find this legendary substance, you must find the 12 Rings of the Dead. Elwood is a skilled knife-thrower and was once part of a gang called the Gray Ants. Gamma Akutabi is an S-Zero ranked criminal, 960,000,000 nit bounty. He has armor nailed onto his right arm so that he can catch bullets. his weapon is a 6 foot sword shaped, chainsaw. Together they search for the fabled powder of life, Elwood to ressurect his sister, Gamma, for immortality. Other charcters join/ were there all along, including C.T. Smith, a master gunman; Wolfina, the "Journalist of Justce" whose tripod is deadly in more ways than one; and Angelle, a 12 year old girl who claims to be Gamma's lover who uses some form of 'psychic' abilities.
Review: It starts of fairly good, and as it goes on, it builds up a lot of greatness relly quickly. A big part of what seperates it from other SJ series is that lack of need to explain battles. There are a lot of characters with a lot of awesome unexplained abiliteis, and they need no explanation. The stoy is quick ond consise, the fights are all well done and look fantastic. the art looks great imo, and the characters are very diverse and unique, but not to the point of sheer bizzarity (Like OP sometimes does XD) Gamma started out like many characters at a God-State, yet he quickly reached his niche, MUCH fatser than Kenshin did at least. All in all, Gamma is an EPIC main charcter, and his chain arts are one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The only reason this isn't my #1 series was it's premature cancellation....I could see that it was going to only get better. Hopefully Kubo will try to continue this after Bleach is done....
Closing Notes: It needs MORE.......That's all I gotta say, other than that, fantastic......IMO
Art: 10/10 Characters: 10/10 Story: 10/10 Comedy: 9/10 Action: 10/10 Romance: 10/10 Ending: 7/10 Personal Rating: 10/10 ignoring the cancelation, you could tell it was going to go places if SJ hadn't decided to be dicks......(for the first time ever ><) With cancellation 8/10

Tite Kubo, the author, was having emotional problems when this series was beening made. That's why it was cancelled. It's not SJ's fault.

Well, the reason he was having emotional problems was, as stated in Vol. 3, because he couldn't bear to look at his own work, it always looked bad to him, but, in volume 4, he said he was beginning to look at his own art with a bit of pride and joy. AND the exact cause for the cancellation is unkown.

I heard it was way to violent or too sexual, but I could be wrong.

Riaku_Nukazi I heard it was way to violent or too sexual, but I could be wrong. Definatly not too sexual, and I'ver seen SJ series more violent than it. Where did you hear that by the way, you might be onto something-ish.
