AIR GEAR ---Japanese made.

The difference between Japanese and western anime series is that the Japanese films seem like they are possible in real life where as western animes seem like cartoons (they are cartoons), so they put off many people.

Air Gear is a Japanese anime that involves the use of roller blades in the art of Extreme Stunting also with a bit of fantasy mixed in with some of the stunts in it and skills that some people would call **Powers**.
The charaters you can relate to in real life.
IkkI is the main character and at the start of the series he is a leader of a gang and later he drops from the gang and forms a Skate crew.

Kazu is one of Ikki's closest friends and his power is speed and is the fastest one out of the group members.

Buccha appears to be obese but is actually full of blood from over eating and is strong because of the blood and is the Tank int the group of skaters.

Onigiri is on of the least talanted of all the riders and is considerd to be perverted pig.

It is a really good anime series that any one who likes anime should watch it.
