Dagger Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Though there's nothing wrong with the idea behind this thread, your post quality needs a bit of work. Please try to use proper punctuation and capitalization as much as possible--it'll make your writing look much cleaner and easier to read. Others who feel like responding to the topic should keep that in mind as well. I really don't want to have to close this. ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Unit 100 Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 My top 10 wants: 1. Samurai Champloo (Shinichiro Wantanabe. Samurais. Hip-hop music. That should be enough to get anyone to want to see it) 2. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (I saw a sub at my school's anime club. If not for the freaktastic ending it would be as good as Spirited Away, my favorite Ghibli movie. Not just that, but it comes out the day after my birthday!) 3. Porco Rosso (Miyazaki=good, though I doubt this movie will be as good as Nausicaa) 4. Ghost in the Shell: Special Edition (This is a must) 5. Tokyo Godfathers (I loved Millenium Actress, so I'd probably love this as well) 6. Paranoia Agent (This show is supposed to be incredible) 7. Full Metal Alchemist (Given the late timeslot on AS, the DVDs should be useful to following the show) 8. Gundam SEED (Particularly Volumes 6 onward, since they include the episodes not aired on Toonami yet) 9. Appleseed (The DVD release is very far in the future but want to see it in theaters) 10. Ghost in the Shell 2 (Good movie, though from what I hear it got a rather crappy release) Since I haven't seen any of these outside of Nausicaa, FMA, SEED, and the GitS stuff, maybe people could give me their opinions of the shows I listed.

Dagger Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 [quote name='EVA Unit 100']Since I haven't seen any of these outside of Nausicaa, FMA, SEED, and the GitS stuff, maybe people could give me their opinions of the shows I listed.[/quote] Gladly. Two titles in particular jumped out at me. Samurai Champloo: Absolutely brilliant. The problem is that people tend to go into the series thinking, "[i]Bebop, Bebop, Bebop![/i]" Though Champloo follows a familiar format--it's made up of episodic stories that occasionally reveal parts of a major character's (usually tragic) past--the two anime have quite different goals and are stylistically dissimilar. The series is smart, chronically irreverent and in certain ways more daring than Bebop. If instinct tells you to see this, you should definitely do everything you can to get your hands on it. Like Bebop, it has its low points (such as the overly Kenshin-esque episode 2 and the diary recap), but the series starts strong and just keeps getting better and better. Some of the later two-part tales are simply sublime. Paranoia Agent: A different kind of masterpiece, but a masterpiece nonetheless. Its storytelling style is strongly reminiscient of Booegiepop Phantom; however, PA covers a wider range of characters and brings Satoshi Kon's off-beat humor to the table. Be warned that the episodes are wildly uneven in terms of tone and plot development: some are disturbing and deathly serious, others are disturbingly silly. Some contribute a lot to the story, others are merely a half-hour of social commentary. The anime as a whole runs the risk of making no sense whatsoever, but despite my caveats, it is well worth watching. I'd really like to see [b]Giant Robo[/b], an epic OVA that took something like seven years to complete. [b]Figure 17[/b] and [b]Berserk[/b] are also pretty high up on my list (weirdly, all three of those anime are from Media Blasters). The upcoming titles I'm looking forward to most are listed in my signature, with links to their official sites. ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
