[QUOTE="Kesh, post: 493316, member: 1308"] Well, might as well chime in. :) 1. [b]X[/b] - Aka, [i]X/1999[/i], a story about the end of the world, and one boy who gets to decide: will the Earth be saved, or destroyed? I've only recently stumbled across this one, and I'm addicted to the TV series. I'm holding off from seeing the movie, to avoid spoiling the ending. :) 2. [b]Perfect Blue[/b] - Good lord. This one will either quivering because you've just seen an incredible movie, or curled up in a fetal ball and crying because you have no idea what just happened. :D A very entertaining romp through the mind of a young pop star as she begins to crack under the stress of stardom and stalkers. 3. [b]Princess Mononoke[/b] - An excellent tale set in feudal Japan, with a fictional twist. Animal gods roam the sacred forests, while humans attempt to rip the resources from the land for their own needs. In the middle is a young boy, dying from a demon's curse, and a young woman raised by wolves. 4. [b]Akira[/b] - The quintessential anime, one most people start with. Incredible animation & music, combined with a complex story make for quite a satisfying movie. You really have to watch this more than once to get all the subtle connections between the events. This is a story of genetic manipulation and the dangers of a society allowed to wallow in its own pity. 5. [b]Cowboy Bebop[/b] - Bounty hunters in outer space. Need I say more? Oh, and it has a cute dog too. :D 6. [b]Outlaw Star[/b] - Not a favorite of all who see it, but it's a fun action sci-fi series about a man, an android, and the secret that governments and pirates are willing to kill for. 7. [b]Hamtaro![/b] - I'm sorry, but this show is just so damn cute. Please kill me now, I can't be saved! :p [/QUOTE]
