Air Gear, Vol. 3: A New Legacy



Air Gear
I was bored and running out of cash at the time. The only anime I didn't have that I could afford was Air Gear. Air Gear is a pretty good show. I was quite surprised. It's more of an anime about beating up street gangs who just happen to ride roller blades with electric motors in them. I used to ride roller blades in middle school but I never associated it with being tough. These guys and girls really stick it to each other.

The main character, Ikki, lives with a family of sisters. He is a delinquent in a street gang. One day he finds a pair of "At's" in one of his housemates rooms. The story is about him climbing to the top of the AT battle world with his friends.

This series has a lot to offer. It has action, comedy, drama, and a bit of romance. Not as much as Ikki would like though. The animation is good and so is the soundtrack. It has a different kind vibe to it. It's very pop culture oriented and there is a descent amount of fan service. My only complaint...

Very pretty
Bought this disc to get it signed, and I loved it. Very cute, shiny... Basically everything I could ask for.

ADV's best series yet!
Air Gear vol. 3 is a noteworthy buy since its where the series really picks up the pace. New characters and plot revelations kept me in my seat. I couldnt belive it and the great sense of humor that the first two installments brought is still intact and just as funny. The action gets turned up a notch and the new characters add a real twist to the plot of the story and the main characters.
