Anyone seen the anime Scryed?

It's basically about people called "Alters", who have the ability to reshape mass into a construct to fight for them. (exceptions abound)...

Of the two main characters, one can make a construct that fights with two ribbon-like blades. The other changes his arm to create an armor like construct over it for making super powered punches.

And nearly all of them tend toward the "one trick pony" system of character creation. Or at least it seems.

Anyone else?

I just saw the first DVD last week ... and I gotta say that the series has some neat stuff in it :) I agree with the "one-trick pony" bit, but I'm willing to stay tuned and watch for some evolution ;)

Ohh...there's DVDs now? I watched them all in mpeg format.

Yeah, they are mostly 1-trick ponies, but there is a bit of an evoltuion in their alters throughout the series to where they get a little more...versatility =)

I saw an episode or two and it wasn't really my thing. E's Otherwise I think is fairly similar although the espers in that are rarer and more powerful, but I stopped watching that after a few episodes for similar reasons. The torrents for Scryed might still be around, E's Otherwise is still going on and can be downloaded. Full Metal Alchemist just started up and it looks promising, seems a bit similar to Scryed/E's.
