For fans By fans

This is the most impressive anime-movie i've seen in my life. Perfect theme to write the script makes "Beck" the best between the youth and new generation of musicians. I've noticed that authors know a lot about rock-stage and music, in fact even about Guitars (Gibson Les Paul, Jaguar and Acoustic Guitars by Martinez are really good). Also they used really good songs, that have given some atmosphere to the project... The script is awesome, just because of its variety of mini-scenes, that makes serial more watchable. You will see romantics, some detective scenes, sports and of cource daily life of Rock Musicians! I've even heard that some people began to play the guitar after watching some series... Heh good luck to them ;)
