Product Description Music is Life Beck begins the compelling story of a boy who discovers who he is through music. A teenage boy meets an amazing guitar player and together they form the band Beck. Follow the bands ever-challenging road to fame, as told through the eyes of the impressionable boy. The Amp Starter Box is one of the most compelling pieces FUNimaion has released. Starter Set includes: Beck Volume 1, Amp Stickers and an exclusive guitar pick desertcart.com Koyuki Tanaka, the hero of Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad (2004), has a bad case of the adolescent blues: at 14, he feels his life is "at a dead end." When he rescues a weird-looking mongrel from a trio of brats, he earns the owner's friendship. Ryusuke is only two years older than Koyuki, but he's infinitely cooler: he played guitar in the legendary band Dying Breed. With some goading from his pretty friend Izumi, Koyuki enters the underground music scene. Ryusuke and his potty-mouthed sister Maho are trying to assemble the best musicians for a new band. As Koyuki learns to like British rock & roll, Maho discovers he has real talent as a singer. Most anime performers possess either a passion for music or a burning desire to become a star; Koyuki has neither. As the series progresses, he'll obviously reveal an inner fire, but at the outset, he's just a moody teen-ager. Director Osamu Kobayashi paces the story to match his phlegmatic hero: the opening episodes unfold at a slow, almost sulky pace. (Unrated, suitable for ages 16 and older: risquรฉ humor, minor violence, brief nudity, profanity, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
