Never saw iron man, and for all it's faults, I actually enjoyed X-men. I hope they do a second season.

I'll buy 'em. I not into doing the lame 'i want everything for free' torrent BS. i'll take my hard earned money and shell it out cuz i found both entertaining. more anime than marvel for sure, but thats not a bad thing. loved the witchblade anime too.

kids nowadays need to learn not everything is free. and that is not a bad thing. if you feel something is worth it, pay for it. don't think it worth the money, then don't bother.

just don't support a system that takes advantage of the arts in any respect. word.

I will be getting these definitely. Though they weren't as great as I was hoping they were still entertaining and cool to see marvel characters done in anime. In order from best to worst I'd say i'd rank them like this:
1- Blad
2- X-Men
3- Iron Man
4- Wolverine

Will absolutely buy these! I've been waiting for the DVDs since I heard about the various series. As for the above comments, piracy doesn't support the creators. If the creators don't receive support, no more cool stuff. If you want to watch it, buy it.

Sorry but I don't recommend these two anime dvd sets along with the Wolverine series too. I've seen all three of them, and it was difficult to sit though from start to finish. Sure, the anime visuals are good and I loved seeing these characters on the screen but the stories were weak and the direction was poor. Surprisingly I think Iron Man was the better of the three. I so wanted them to get better and improve as they went on but never did. Like going to see a feature film that you can't wait to see and then falls short. Like I said, looks grate, fan favorite characters, but be warned before you spend the coin. Maybe the next time around...
