(12/22/10) Miyazaki's animation is truly in a league of its own, and I mean that as strongly as possible. It has been decades since the Disney studios were capable of a fraction of the more challenging sequences that Miyazaki seemingly animates with ease. For instance, the wind and storm the first night the children spend in their new home display effects that Disney hasn't attempted since the more marvelous scenes in BAMBI. The way the wind is portrayed as moving through the tops of the trees, the hint of spraying mist, the manner in which the wind moves like a wave over the grass, the shuttering of the house under the assault of the air, are all things of remarkable artistry. Even more remarkable is that after this brief display of mastery, Miyazaki doesn't feel the need to build a huge storm with rain and lightening, but has the wind subside and give way to brilliant white clouds sailing across a moonlit and starry black sky.See less

(08/12/07) Blue Gender is a science fiction military anime series that revolves around Yuji Kaido, a recently awakened "sleeper", and Marlene Angel, a sniper pilot detached to the Second Earth Tokyo Recovery Squad. Yuji was placed in suspended animation in the hopes of finding a cure for his disease, expecting to be awakened one or two years later when a treatment program would be found. Instead, he finds himself revived twenty-two years later to discover that the world he knew is completely gone. Everyone he once knew and cared about is dead, and the world he knew has been transformed into a nightmare. Blue Gender is a tightly woven story that combines military sci-fi, romance, and suspense together into an action packed and emotionally charged series. If you're expecting a series that has invincible comic book heroes that are smug in their moral superiority, possessing super human powers, and somehow always coming out ahead, then you're in for a surprise. Each of the characters is painfully...See less

(08/12/07) Elfen Lied would be the perfect horror anime series, if only it was content to be a horror series. Instead it tries to mix genuine emotional drama and even cutesy-poo comedic antics in with its visceral gore and pins-and-needles suspense to create a lurching Frankenstein monster of a series. It might be effective if the creators were trying to shoot for some irony, but no, they clearly want the audience to weep at the plights of murderous mutant Lucy and dumb college student Kouta. The story begins with a ten minute kill-fest as Lucy, a mutant with ESP powers (picture a cross between Sylvia Brown and Jeffrey Dahmer) rampages her way out of a government research facility. Blood splashes everywhere as if the animators had an unlimited supply of red paint and limbs fly through the air. She rips the head the head off of a secretary that in the five minutes she was alive acted like an annoying simpleton. Oh, and Lucy is completely naked while doing it. It's exploitative and it's gross, and...See less
