Hello! Aside from the exhilarating story and cool fight scenes, one more thing I like about GetBackers is the fact that they have lots of nice quotes. These quotes aren't just rhetorical; they also sound very cool. So, feel free to post your favorite quotes (it can be from any character, or even the narrator, if you want). I have yet to think of my favorite, as I have too many.

What a good idea for a topic! I'll see what I can come up with -- might just have to go reread some chapters so I can find my favorites again. Such a hardship, lol!

This is easy: "The S in Get Backers means neither of us is alone!"Really, how can you not love that quote? It perfectly sums up what the GB represents; a bond that can conquer all hardships in the world. Then there is Ban's "Just a minute!" and "Did you have a nice dream?" that go hand in hand with each other. When he says that, you know somebody just got pwned... and you as well, because you, I, we, the readers, get caught up in the illusion as well. So not only does it display Ban's wit and intelligence, but also the combined talent of Aoki and Ayamine's storytelling. Everything that Fudou says is so much lulz. Everything. Go ahead and tell me with a straight face that lines such as "GIVE YOUR BODY TO ME! SATISFY ME DESIRES" means that Fudou wants to kill Ban, not do... another kind of physical action to him.As for humourous lines, we have Ginji's scream of terror: "AAAAHHH!!! ....kabane-san". And who can forget the prizeless "Ginji-kun, aaah~"? XD I'll probably come back later, so this will do for now. After all, we've got many great lines and quotes and dialoges to choose from!

For me that's the best one:
Just one minute.
In second place comes Ban's winning speech the Asclepius spell.

Does "Ban-chan~!!" count as a quote? (Totally cheating)
I'm in love with Ginji's japanese voice actor Morikubo Showtaro and the way he voices Ginji, so when I read the manga, his voice plays in my head :D

But even if I reach the sky waving my hands around and steal that star over there, will anything change? =Trip Dancer

Morikubo Showtaro is the reason I started watching the Get Backers anime in the first place, and his voice followed me to the manga, as well. I vote for "Ban-chan!!" as a quotable quote.

Hi five!
Well, I'd watched the anime first, and that was when I really started paying attention to seiyuus in anime. It helps to have a friend who's a massive seiyuu fangirl who can give me information on almost all the seiyuus in GetBackers (and anime in general).
To me, I think that Morikubo Showtaro's voice acting really adds character to Ginji. I think that if I'd read the manga first, I wouldn't have liked Ginji as much as I do now ;D Epic voice + very epic manga = Much much love <3
Also, seeing your signature makes me grin every time :) I swear I'll put up a Ginji profile picture when I get the time to make an icon.
