watch more anime

Time constraints have kept me from watching as much anime as I would have liked, but I can safely say that I’ve watched more than I had when I first set on this goal. It’s definitely worth it. I’ll be sure to watch more as time allows!

Man, this is one of the most gorgeous movies ever, with a storyline that I think Will Eisner would have enjoyed.

I’ve got to own this.

Wow, this was a good one. The visual style made me think of Moebius, a French illustrator who I’ve always admired. The story was pretty captivating as well – kept me awake and alert until 3am :-)

I watched this on On-Demand last night. I really liked it, although I suspect some content got edited out. That’s okay, I’ve got it on my list at Rent Anime. More of a character exploration than a plot-heavy storyline. We could really stand to learn a little over here about the range of story types that are available in animation. Namely, all the same story types that are available for everything else :-)

I stayed up way too late watching Adult Swim on Cartoon Network last night (this morning?), catching an episode of Full Metal Alchemist (awesome) and Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex (also very interesting, and gorgeous to boot).

But really, I shouldn’t be going to bed at 4:30 in the morning, even if I am catching good anime because of it.

Interesting stuff. A little hard for me to follow in the first episode, but I’d gotten into the groove by the second and third. Matter of fact, I was pretty much immersed by the third episode. I’m a sucker for seeing the development of characters over time, and Takegami managed it fairly impressively. I also enjoyed the backstory for episode 2. Basically, I liked this one, and I’m looking forward to more.
