Got back my Spriggan DVD on the weekend and i decided to rewatch it, anyway is it me or did the Fatguy and Littleboy from Spriggan much like those guys from episode 4 of Burn up W the one with the chaingun and knife.

See Fatguy from Spriggan had a chaingun thingy much like that chaingun guy from BUW
Littleboy from Spriggan had an annoying voice and ran around slicing people up kinda like the knife dude from BUW.

Hmm? Thoughts comments?

Its been a long time since I watched Spriggan, but the two villians you mentioned are common in most anime. You have the big muscular guy with either a big weapon or just his bare hands and the small agile guy who usually uses knifes.

Like . . . What animes both have a big chaingun guy and small fast guy who cuts things up that work together?

I'm saying that these two are common villian designs, doesn't matter if they work together or not. And the big guy might not carry a chaingun. Most action anime have them.

Talking about Spriggan? I think there's only one woman in the whole movie, and she wasn't much of a babe, so you may not like the show. :p

But im just saying that its just a coincidence that both animes have a team of two with one big chaingun guy and small fast guy who slices dudes up

Perhaps so, but you asked me (us) for my thoughts/comments, and so I posted what I felt, that these two types of villians are quite common in action anime, even in action movies and videogames, so I didn't think much if them being similar in BUW and Spriggan.

I agree, if your talking about Dober Head and Jackle head...Having one excel in streangh and the other agility, that's standard...
