Gonna watch this movie, cyberpunk is cool as gently caress and there's too little of it recently.

Also I stand by my claim that besides the ghibli stuff there are a handful of good animes, which are basically:

- Ghost in the Shell
- Cowboy Bebop
- Akira
- Grave of the Fireflies
- Tekkon Kinkreet
- Magical Princess Strawberry Panty Explosion Mark IV

They should have pulled something like an Avatar/Spirits Within and had her character be nothing but a CG creation that was a computer-rendered simulation of ScarJo in every scene.

Yea these are all good, especially season 6 of Magical Princess Strawberry Panty Explosion Mark IV. Barefoot Gen is another good one similar to grave of the fireflies

its a bynch of half baked symbolism cargo culting spooky western imagery that never got fully explained because the show got cancelled then they made movies and tried to shoehorn/retcon in more explanation because that means the new stuff is more thought out right?? repeat that process like 3 times

the only good episode of Ghost in the Shell was one year when Adult Swim pulled an april fools prank and overlaid fart noises over it.

Nerds lost their poo poo because it was the new episode they had been waiting for, but it was covered up in fart noises.

I thought it was funny because the little cripple girl sounded like she propelled her wheelchair with farts.

I laughed my goddamn rear end off when that aired

It's all about believing in yourself and thinking positive.

The series ends when the main character accepts himself

anime nerds were upset at this ending so they made a new ending where he fights anime monsters

This movie will be Not Good and hopefully kills scarjo's career, the studio that made it, and the anime studio that made ghost in the shell as well


although the ghost in the shell game on steam is pretty fun it's like counter strike but your gun actually shoots where you point it and your characters all have special powers like heat vision or making walls or stuff

You know how a lot of American movies use Eastern religions as a form of mysticism without really understanding any of it?

Evangelion is the exact opposite of that. It's a Japanese series using Western religion as a form of science without really understanding any of it.

There are some links of parts of the episode, the whole thing is probably somewhere but I posted one on the last page


It was great because it was the first airing of a new episode of the Super Serious Dramatic and Thoughtful Anime for Nerds or whatever, but they put fart noises in it. And even apparently took the time to add them in based on the context

*fart* "Even a type 3003 couldn't hide me from a dogs nose" *faaaaaart*

It must suck to even have the channel airing your favorite show make fun of you for liking it, like you can't even escape into your anime anymore at that point.
