Summary: ,Hack is one of the best anime series ever made!!!!
Review: I dont understand how anyone could give this less than a 5 out of 5! What more could you want in an anime series? The animation is awesome, the storyline is great and the T-shirt that comes with the set is cool as hell! It doesnt have as much action as most series, but doesnt that get kind of old after a while?

Summary: Enjoyable so far
Review: I found the premise for .//hack very interesting, I have never played on-line games this this but I use to work with people who played the microsoft one fanaticly so I can relate well and find it amusing. I can't wait to see where this cartoon will go, this first DVD brings up lots of questions and answers none of them, like is our lead a boy or a girl in the REAL World, why can't he log off, who is this woman who talks to him and gives him the guardian. Is that sleeping girl/woman using the lead or helping him excape a terrible reality? Questions, Questions, but if you liked the idea of the matrix, not the action, you should enjoy the questions that .//hack raises.

Summary: Worth every penny! A new and different series...
Review: I gotta admit. I thought .hack was all hype. Until I saw it. The beginning went slow.. but then suddenly I became captivated with it. The whole idea of the series taking place entirely inside of an online RPG is even more interesting than it sounds. Ever play one of your RPGs and think "This is so good.. I kinda wish it were an anime."? Well that's kinda what .hack//SIGN is. .. and if you don't like watching it, you can always invest your money in the .hack video game series for PS2 instead. You will, however, find a lot of the series to be more dialogue-driven than action-driven. If all you want is to see the characters whacking each other with swords, then you might as well get the video game series instead. The main story in .hack//SIGN focuses on a mysterious character in the game named Tsukasa. He's unsocial, isolated, and pretty darn annoying. All he wants is for everyone to leave him alone. Then one day he tries to log out of the online world he's playing in, but he can't! That's only the beginning of all sorts of bizarre happenings that go on with Tsukasa. Bizarre happenings that were thought to be impossible inside "The World" where the game is played. Everything Tsukasa does seems to override the system, and nobody knows why. Could he have acquired a powerful legendary item which was previously thought to be nothing more than fiction? If a unique plot and gorgeous animation aren't enough to win you over, Yuki Kajiura's amazing musical score will. When you buy the Limited Editions of the first 3 .hack DVDs, you'll get all the OSTs from .hack//SIGN along with them. Great deal, if you ask me. (Especially if you chose to buy the Vol 1 L.E. Box set, which is exploding with awesome goodies and is worth every cent you spend on it. ) .hack's character designs are wonderful, which is only to be expected from Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, who is one of my personal favorite artists. Sadamoto is the writer and illustrator of the Evangelion manga, as well as the character designer for Evangelion and Nadia, two of Gainax's most popular anime series of all time.

Summary: Great series, looks like a great Box Set
Review: I have seen the entire series and it is one of my favorites, ranking right up there with EVA and Cowboy Bebop. It's very easy to give too much of the story away, but basically pretend you are playing a MMORPG one day, and you go to logout, but can't. That's the start of the story for Tsukasa. However it develops a great deal from there and is never boring, a downfall of many series. I couldn't wait to see the next episode, and I had to limit myself to watching one a day to keep myself from blowing through it in a weekend. The storyline overall is serious and dramatic, but not excessively. There is no sappy high school lovestory to suffer through, no horribly shallow characters. If you liked Lain, EVA, and Cowboy Bebop, I think you will like this one to. Subaru is by far my favorite character, while all the others are well done and fit in their roles nicely. The animation is very good. The music gets it's own paragraph. It's simply outstanding. I often found myself ignoring the dialogue just to listen to amazing songs like "Fake Wings". That soundtrack included with this set will not just be a filler I promise you. I don't do many reviews but I felt I just had to for this one. Many people probably haven't heard of this one yet and aren't sure if they would like it. This is an outstanding series and this box set looks like a great deal.

Summary: A must see and a must own.
Review: I have seen the fan subs for this series as they were being released in japan. I was amazed with the characters, plot, music and so on. One thing i would sugest while watching this series is pay attention to alot of the little things and the music. After watching the series the second time through, i noticed how well the series was put together. The first episode sets up the entire story. Theres so much i want to say but if i do it would ruin the entire story for you. This is a series more towards gamers in my opinion but even if you arnt a gamer its a great series and im so glad that they brought it over quickly. With the release of .hack//dusk in japan and the games taking of well in japan, this series will hopfully take off well in the USA. Im glad to see two great series being brought over this year, Noir and.hack//sign

Summary: This is a great dvd, can't say the same for the rest...
Review: I have to admit, the beginning of this series is great. The music is amazing and the story is continuous enough to keep you interested. When I watched it I was definitely hooked; it's so different. In addition all of the extras you get with the limited edition make it a perfect addition to any anime lover's collection. Unfortunately, unless Bandai does some major editing to the dialogue the story slows down a lot more than it already has as the series continues. It does have a lot of depth to it, but the main storyline moves really slowly. ie. for every episode where something important happens there are at least 4 episodes where nothing does.

Summary: .hack Feeds Gamers and Otakus Alike!
Review: I heard of .hack from Cartoon Network, pre-debut and got very excited. An anime that takes place in an MMORPG (mass multiplayer online role playing game)? This sounds like a really great idea! I was further pleased to find it had a real twist to it, and not just staged within the game. Tsukasa, our 'hero', can't log out of the game for some reason, and has lost his body to the game. The World, the game everyone's playing in this anime, is a beautiful world displayed with fantastic artwork. It's however not enough to have the visual effect however. The music, done by someone Yuki Kajiura, someone ive never heard of before but rivals Yoko Kanno herself, is fantastic and makes the soundtrack alone worth holding back on getting that last DVD of Cowboy Bebop. The only reason i can't give it 5 stars is because the character build so far doesn't seem to be going very far. That doesn't mean it's not an amazing series, cause it is! I think it just needs a bit more time. Perhaps by the 3rd dvd things will heat up. The package comes with a box for all your .hack dvds, a soundtrack with 19 tracks, 2 postcards, one sheet of stickers, a Grunty doll (coolest stuffed animal ive ever seen), a .hack t-shirt (XL) and the DVD with the first 5 episodes dubbed OR subbed. Not bad at all if you ask me. The dvd, soundtrack, and t-shirt should be worth over $(...) as it is, so there's no questioning the value, and believe me I've checked: Amazon(.com) has it the cheapest. Places like discountanimedvd have it marked for at least 53. Take away shipping as well cause you can get it free here, and you're saving around $(...) by buying it through amazon.(com) Not bad if you ask me. I cant wait to see more.

Review: I loved this anime through and through cant wait to watch the rest of it as soon as I can I even recommend this to non anime watchers. It is truly a man amongst boys in its genre of DVD's.

Summary: Trying to decide if I like it....
Review: I really want to like this series. I have been watching Anime for about 15 years now and I have been playing EverQuest for 3 years. The production of .hack//Sign is top notch, and I like the story. However I tend to look too deeply into things, and my biggest beef whis this is the characters in this do not move and react like MMORPG characters. Granted, if they did it would be a REALLY boring show. I have kind of resolved it in my mind that is kind of like the Apollo 13 movie.. the events that actually happened, while exciting, would be [bad] to watch because there was no real "production", where the movie of Apollo 13 told the story of the events with dramatic license. That makes me look at this anime as "dramatic retelling" of the events, that way you can have characters sitting on a wall talking, or showing facial expression. But overall, I like the story :)
