I am watching this anime now. It seems pretty interesting. I wish I had Saiga's camera. And Kagura is really cute. I can't seem to find any Kagura fanart though T_T

Not a bad show I guess they had to do the 5 year time skip so that the two leads could hook up without one of them looking like a pedo

Ah, whatever it really seems that the series was pushing the standards just for the sake of it, and it was hard to take the story serious half of the time with its more ridiculous plot devices, but other than that it was mere average at best.

Hahaha, ridiculous? No more so that Robot maids getting in baths with their owner, Dead Zombies going to school, and Space Vampires.

Speed Grapher was always about Greed. Each person's power was based on what they wanted in their heart the most.

That's all I was pointing out, you used the wrong word and the whole meaning changed.

I know this post was around a year ago, but I couldn't help responding.

IIRC, he didn't pimp her. She used to kiss his clients when she's in some sort of trance to give them special powers, and she even used to have nightmares about kissing them. I don't remember Suetango allowing them to have sexual relationships with her, especially when she was so "precious" to him.

I could be wrong though, having watched this around 2 years ago.

That's also how I remember it.

I was answering a poster's statement that said Saiga was pimping her.
Saiga didn't EVER sell her out to someone for money (or for anything else).

Suetango did.

Now in some cultures a kiss is the same as the 'act' so I still think it works but the best way to describe Suetango is as a 'Drug Dealer'. She is the drug that makes people feel good and he's the guy who can get it to you.

I see. I get your point (although I don't consider it pimping if there's no sexual activity involved).

4-5 years late to viewing this anime but just throw some randoms thoughts out here anyways after a finished viewing. Thought the story of SG was pretty neat but ultimately ruined by the animation as it took a while to overlook it to just enjoy the interesting premise of the story and somewhere by the end the previous themes of the series built before seem to become lost.

It seem like a show that would have benefited a lot from a few animation buffs seeing how stylish and sexual it was supposed to be at times. The ending was kind of surprising in that everything basically went to hell. Things that just seem to be forgotten or I didn't understand.

Spoiler:

It was sad to see how Saiga ended up in the end but at least he seem happy though

Spoiler:

I must be the only one, but I just loved Ginza.

Just a fantastic humanbeing and Saiga is soo lucky she loves him so much.
Amazing how he doesn't care or notice it. Only the outfit was a bit too extreme otherwise just loved everything about her.

The ending was kind of surprising in that everything basically went to hell. Things that just seem to be forgotten or I didn't understand. Spoiler: Ginza...her character just seem very odd me, unless I miss something they never really explain how her and Saiga meet which would help explain her crazy obsession with him. Her dry humping his comatose like body in ep.11 made me raise an eyebrow and then in the ending she completely goes off to Africa with the doctor. Am all for crazy females if I feel they serve a real point to a series. Ginza was pretty out there. Euophria/Virus Carrier, they explain how Suitengu and Saiga became virus carriers but again did I miss something about how the virus spread across the rest of the world to the point most of side villains and even the Prime Minister himself became Euophria? I know Kagura has to trigger it but that means they already have to had the virus within them. Kagura was born from Shinsen right? It seems like a silly question I know but the series keep bringing up Research Lab 151 or whatever as if she was born there and Suitengu went on how her real father saved him with his left arm and the other last trace of the virus was mainly left in her, vaguely indicating she was "made" instead of being born naturally from mother....at least to me. It was sad to see how Saiga ended up in the end but at least he seem happy though Spoiler: kind of disappointed that the whole Kagura x Saiga thing went from more of a concerned adult for a minor to a flat out love that pushes the border of lolita complex somewhat. At least they did a 5 year time skip to make it seem not too weird. heh
