Killer and Cool, 6 June 2006
10/10
Author: Timothy McKann (Wingzero586@aol.com) from United States

When I first watched this movie on the Action Channel, I gotta say that this is one of the most popular anime films since Darkside Blues,and Vampire Hunter D. The film was so cool, I had to see it again,and I did. But after buying the DVD at BestBuy,it turned out to be the best since it was aired on the Action Channel.My favorite characters in the movie are Kyoya,and Mephisto, they are pretty cool. And I do like the fighting scenes, they are intense. And of course. the most scariest thing in the movie are the monsters. So in closing to this film,if you plan to see this film. A word of advice, Please be very careful, it could mess with your head.
