Has anyone seen any of pumpkin Scissors.. Ive watched about three episodes in and am very surprised at how much i;m enjoying it.. sure its not great great but its definitely worth a try.
It reminds me of Full Metal Alchemist heaps, not that ive seen alot of that either, but i like it more i think.
Anyone care to share an opinion?? I'd like to hear what people think about it... if only to help me decide whether its worth investing the time and money to see the entire series.

Ive heard good things. Its like an alternate history of the aftermath of WWI eh? Or something along those lines. I havent seen any of it, but ive heard good things. I wouldn't buy it off my knowledge though.

I'm not so sure about alternate history of WWII exactly.. there are some fairly anime-typical elements thrown in such as scientific experiments to make human weapons and such (thats not much of a spoiler, dont worry). But it certainly has that vibe ye, the setting is all pretty european looking and theres parallels to it in some of the economic crisis situations and such.
It is quite good, I'm surprised it hasnt become more popular considering the large FMA fanbase.. i mean the only reason Coyote ragtime Show ever became known was because people thought it would "usurp the Bebop audience"... ye right.

Yeha, I've heard about it. It sounded pretty cool to me. And if you say it's similar to FMA, then I'm even more interested.
