Banana Fish

It such a riveting story. I didn't think I was going to be able get into but I'm hooked. Love the main character ASH. He is complex, intelligent, strong, fierce, and compassionate. This show is really well written and worth the watch.

This show ruined me. it's been months and I'm still thinking about it. 10/10 would watch and ruin life again.

The Banana Fish anime is an updated story taken from the previous Banana Fish manga (comic). Not only is this a fresh take on the manga, but provides a story and setting that isn't very common in anime.

The anime is set in New York and follows a gang leader (Ash) who befriends several unlikely people to solve a mystery and obtain revenge. This anime is in no way family friendly and has quite a bit of violence, drugs, sexual situations and a disturbing sexual backstory.

Bananafish has opened my eyes to some of the darkest side happening around us which people are mostly silent about.. it's a lot deeper than i thought it was. The adventures and the relationships of the protagonists while fighting the mafia are very interesting and unique in the anime world..

Truly a beautiful series, the characters are lovable with great character developments, the storyline is amazing as well.
