beck: mongolian chop squad is anime based on the manga beck by harold sakuishi. this a story of 5 boys in a band trying to make a name for themselves. they encountered countless challenges in their journey to success. i read the manga and it was very moving. the story development is great, both the protagonist and antagonist characters are very distinct. the plot grows interestingly with minimal plot holes. even only by reading the manga, i feel like i can hear and feel their music. emotions of the characters are clearly channeled to me. sakuishi sensei is truly a genius. such a shame i only found out beck last august. for those who haven't read about beck, check it out, satisfaction guaranteed. as for the anime, currently i'm on episode 12 or so. the animation are good. i love the opening theme "hit in usa" by beat crusader, suits the anime perfectly. the instruments used in the story are great, even before i know beck, i love the gibson sg and the fender telecaster. i was very happy my favorite guitars are in the story. les paul, mustang and stratocaster are also featured. all in all, i give the manga 10/10 and the anime 8.5/10.beck is an old story, but i LOVE it! so i decided to write a bit.
cheers!
