Why do YOU like D.gray-man?

[Dazzikins]

Hmm....I the real question should be: "What's not to like about DGM?"

Let me think for a bit......

Other than finishing the anime and catching up to the manga, nothing really. I love how much work was put into this anime and anyone can tell that a lot of work went into it. The characters are very well developed (at first I thought that some of the characters were left alone, but further into the manga/anime they were telling their own stories). I was extremely happy that the "villains" were given a thorough background as well. I mean when you read the manga (and even watching the anime though it's only a small hint), one would think that the Noahs might not actually be as bad as they were put out to be in the beginning. I like those sorts of twists, but only if the writer knows how to write it out, and this writer clearly knows what they're doing.

The art used in both the manga and the anime are divine; that word can't really describe it. I like the setting that was used since it seems to fit there personalities of all of the characters and not just the main ones. The manga (and anime) series might be long, but I felt that each of the plots played out very well and helped the reader (and watcher) understand what was going on. The music used for the anime was also my favorite and it really helped to bring out the deep emotions that was intended for the manga.

As stated before, I liked the anime/manga because it was really easy to find a character and relate yourself to them. Even though a world like that doesn't exist, the planning process to make the world come alive made it seem like it was real and again helped to bring the characters' beings alive. (Magna Carta ftw) I am anxiously waiting for the next chapter to come out!

Been a while since I been here....sorry, got lots of work after my huge move.

Tyki Mykk. :B Probably the most interesting Noah and the most visually attractive of the bunch, imo. Also, surprisingly, my current favorite character despite the fact that he's a villain

i agree with you -w- i <3 Tyki

Ok.. I started watching D.gray-man, sme weeks ago, because i watched one episode on the Tv..
The Komurin2 epic episode And i remember that i saw Kanda, in his only schene there, and i said to myself. Well He has all I need in an Anime guy - Long hair, mean eyes and a sword ... And i see we have exorsists, and... robots??? Oh well I gonna watch that.
And i found the anime in the net (Without the LAME Bugarian dub) And i started of thinking it would be... well much worse that it actually was. At first i thought that Kanda will be the only character i'd like. But the rest of them turned out really well made. Even the women (Wich in shounen, Atlest the ones i've watched are akting only like cheerleeders) Maybe the only character i dont like is the Earl. I don't get that guy... but there is still the manga to read...
I love the way that every one of them has a personality, different from worshiping the main character...
The drawing is INSANE! I love it too
And even thou there was a weird moments like Cross hitting on Leenalee (EEEW) I dfenetly think it is awesome. And it deserve to be continued.
I still like Kanda the most. I have something about characters like him, But all the rest are awesome too. Tyki, Lavi, Allen, Alistar, Miranda (Damn I Love Miranda) Marian Cross, and even Bookman. I like them all...

The way the storry goes is great. - I must say i was happy to see that there is no robots, as much as i thought from that Komurin episode
It stopes at the most interesting part (I think i'd say that no matter where it stoped) And i hope the manga wont be stopped soon. Even if it is possible, to come out faster...

Sorry for my english - It is my second language. It suckes I know. I do my best. sorry...

1) Interesting story line
2) the Good side doesn't always win, in fact they are always at a disadvantage and barely scrape through. Thats is different from the other cliche shounen manga where you know who is gonna win.
3) There is chracter death where they don't revive later on at some point
4) Portrays human sorrow and tragedy well?
5) there are morals in it like "Keep walking forward until the day you die"
6) The art in the manga is exquisite. Critics say its "the best art in the business" or something
7) Allen Walker is an interesting individual
8) there is angst in D.Gray-man and i LOVE angst
9) There are little bits of humor here an there as a little break to all the seriousness
10) This is a very unrefined way of putting this, but i love d.gray-man because it is epically awesome.

Anyone agree? 8D

I found the anime online and after hesitating about watching it I decided to watch the first episode. I loved the art and the fact that it was a fictional 19th century world which is why I decided to ignore Allen's strange left hand (At first I said "Okay... that's a little weird." But now I've grown to love it) and the freaky looking akuma and scary Earl and continued watching. It quickly became my #1 favorite anime! After it ended I searched for the manga and once again fell in love with the characters and story.

[Slay CLay]

Honestly, it was the name, plot and Allen Walker that got me to stop my stupid search to find an anime that I forgot and to start watching it. After finishing all the English dubbed and subbed episodes and catching up with the manga chapters, it was the best choice I have ever made.

The characters are so lovable! Before DGM I was never a fan of minor characters, but with character developments of Miranda, Krory-Kins,Timothy, and Link I love them a lot.The villains are hard to hate, they kind of have their own story (Skinn's transformtion to a Noah made me feel sorry for him) and Tyki became one of my favourite character. The plot is just so amazing, I'm always coming up with questions instead of answers! The art is amazing too even through its phase's I'm always amazed (like with Tyki in chapter 211).

And lastly the soundtrack *sigh*, the openings were kick-ass awesome (my favourite were opening 1 and 3) and the 14th song moves me to tears. Overall, I find D.Gray-Man to be very great and I won't mind to wait for a month or two for the next chapter to come out (I'll be dieing in the inside,but still). With the 14th Noah involved I'm looking forward to the next chapters. *Continues to gush over D.Gray-Man's awesomness*

I started watching D. Gray-man like last summer when I had nothing better to do and was watching a bunch of anime when I was in the mood for an action type of anime, so while browsing on a website I saw D. Gray-man and started to watch it I got hooked pretty fast. After I finished the anime I read the manga and was hooked all over again.
Reasons why
1.Characters(Allen, Kanda, Lavi, Tyki)
2.Character Development
3.Its always keeping you guessing and there are a lot of unanswered questions
4.Art
5.Plot
6.Villians(love them all)
7.Just everything about it

Thing(s) that bugged me
1. The only thing that bugged me was that in the anime Lenalee cried a lot more but thats it

[scarlet_moon]

The 1st time I watched it I had just put the funimation channel on because there was absolutely NOTHING on tv and i was being very lazy. My first thoughts were "this shw has an epic opening song" followed by "ok why the hell does the old guy's head look like a question mark and is he wearing heavy eyeliner?" (I was refering to Bookman) Despite all the wierdness and the fact that I had no idea what was going on, I decided to find the series because any show with an openng song that awesome has to be pretty good. Now the list: (dun dun dun)

1. The theme songs
2. I love both the "good guys" and the "bad guys"
3. I actually have to question whether the villains are really all that bad. There not just Mwahaha Im going to take over the world, they have a personality to them.
4. It's not just Allen that has a story. Lenalee has her bad history with the order from when she was young, Lavi has the whole junior bookman thing, Miranda overcame her misfortunes, ect.
5. Everything's not sugar-coated. People do die. The excorsists don't automatically win. It's a lot more realistic than a lot of other animes.
6. The random hilarity that occurs.
7. The artwork.
8. Nothing ever has just a simple answer. I can never seem toguess what's going to happen next.
9. The tinge of creepiness everything has to it. (Although I still cant get one of my best friends to watch it because the one episode she had to watch was an extra creepy one. *sigh)
10. The girls actually fight. I could never imagine Lenalee sayig something like "Allen there's an akuma Im scared. Go take care of it for me. Ill go cower behind that rock" They're not portrayed as useless or weak for a change.
11. Allen. He's an awesome main character. He's not mean, or some big strong macho guy *cough* beansprout *cough* XD but hes not someone youd want to screw with, unless you're Kanda, or play poker against.
12. Tyki; the most loveable bad guy ever.
13. Lavi the most loveable good guy ever.
I could probably go on for hours, but Im starting to get sick of typing already. The ony two things I dont like are the ending to the anime and I kinda got sick of hearing Lenalee cry.Im still not caught up on the manga though, so make that 3 things.

I love the show for Allen-kun, I mean honestly... he is my fav character ever, nuf-said ^.^


...
BUT I WILL SAY MOAR!

I love the character progression Allen goes thru in the story, he starts off a happy/clappy innocent character, but then after a lot happens to him he starts to progress into a darker more mature person. I love the character arc, the character design (which is really kawaii btw :P), so yea ^.^
