Oh crap Celestial Being, armed military intervention, GN particles, and Aeolia Schenberg. That's enough references to make any Gundam 00 fan chuckle under his/her breath. Add in some Lelouch/Zero poses with mention of the United States of Japan and you have...

It is always nice to be surprised by such a seemingly boring anime, which turns out to become one of the best shows of the summer season.Not to repeat myself on what I’ve said in my previous impressions of this anime, I’ll just focus a little on...

Or so I hear anyway. I couldn’t deal with the...

I have recently watched the new Kamui Gaiden film at the Toronto International Film Festival, and here are my thoughts on the film. As many movie-info websites can tell you, this was a big, $18million USD budget ninja fiction film based on a 1960s manga called Kamui....

Looking at Japan’s history with being an empire and encountering others, here’s a rather too long post about how I see history perhaps influencing anime in the portrayal of different kinds of empires. This editorial...

So, I ‘ve...

I'd been impressed by the trailer when I saw it a few months ago, and the film didn't disappoint. Kells stands right up there with the films of Michel Ocelot and The Triplets of Belleville in leading today's...

I'd seen it often on the shelves of video stores 15 years ago when I rented anime regularly, but the package failed to impress me, so I'd never seen...

But I'm not sure the quality -- or at least the appeal to my taste -- will be that high. I don't see any shows I expect to be as good as the great shows of this past summer season, such as Aoi Hana and Bakemonogatari. But...

It’s a TV-special celebrating the 80th birthday of Osamu Tezuka. It’s about one hour and 45 minutes long, and directed by the director of Code Geass of all people. Still, while this...
