Needs more depth on the story. Other than that, I like it. Does this mean I can submit my reviews now?

You evidently saw the announcement thread elsewhere, but for the sake of completeness: yes.

Meanwhile, I added a story synopsis and some content information that was missed.

I like Gungrave a lot. Kinda like Godfather with zombies.

Wow...I've been dying to see this, but the DVDs say 16+. I never knew Gungrave was that mild for a show with that rating.

I think it may be rated somewhat higher because the story is so dark and "mature" in the general sense. Many characters die and there is basically no comedy (though the few jokes are golden).

All I meant to say was that the ratings system sometimes takes into account target audience instead of only negative content. That strikes me as fair, but it needs to be taken into account.

Also keep in mind along with the darker story the language of the first episodes does get kinda harsh. But i think your right UC the rating system goes along more with the darker story
Follow and suggest movies.
