How is Shizuru? Watching any more anime?

I'm not the biggest book reader, but I do enjoy a good book. I'm currently reading The Bone People.
House of Leaves sounds interesting, might check it out sometime.

Hi there! It's rather funny how I came across your profile. I saw a post about Shizuru from you on Maimultiverse, where you mentioned that you write fanfiction and decided to search your name on ff.net. As you know, you listed the link to your MAL-profile on your ff.net-profile... yeah, and now I'm here. And as I recollect right now how I came across your profile I'm a little scared of myself. I would set a good example as stalker.

Anyway, thought I leave a comment, because our compatibility is rather good-looking.

Finished Noir, it was quite good... not the best 'girls with guns' anime I've seen (that goes to Gunslinger Girl), but pretty high on the ladder.
NeverKnowsBest26 Oct 20, 2011 9:56 PM
Okay, when I do start it, I'll keep you updated on my opinion.

As far as Samurai stories go, I think Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen comes second to only to Seven Samurai for me.
NeverKnowsBest26 Oct 19, 2011 11:25 PM
I just watched Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen... it was MAGNIFICENT!

Unfortunately, I haven't seen Adaptation yet... I hear it is one of Kaufman's best though, so I definitely intend to watch it.

Funny you mention Del Toro, because I love his stuff too (just forgot to mention earlier) and I am looking forward to watching Don't Be Afraid of the Dark. Have not watched Noroi yet, but it sounds very interesting. On the subject of Japanese horror, I highly enjoyed Pulse, very creepy movie with an interesting social message... I have not watched the American re-make, nor do I have any intention too because I here it sucks.

Oh, and I definitely agree with you, the psychological aspect of horrors is the most important part. Even with body horrors out horrors like The Fly; all the personality changes of the main character amplified the his physical changes latter in the movie. I don't really care to much for a lot of modern horrors, because they rely to heavily on nasty violence, rather than careful build-up and tension, honestly it takes away from the fun.

As of now, something I just do for fun, but I will be studying film in the near future.

Well, my all time favorite movie is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind... Pan's Labyrinth, Shawshank Redemption, Seven Samurai, Oldboy, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Psycho, and Momento are a few of my other favorites; it's actually a long list.

Rosemary's Baby is hands down one of the best horrors I have seen, simply brilliant. Nosferatu is perhaps not the most terrifying horror movie I have ever seen , I mean it is a scilent movie from the 1920s, but it is bone-chilling; it also set the lay-work for the genre, so it is definitely a milestone. Susperia is a vividly colored nightmare; The Fly is grotesque body horror at its best. A recent one is House of the Devil, which is a call back to horror of the 70's and 80's. The original Halloween still gets my skin crawling, remains possibly the best slasher flick. Then, of course, there is Psycho... still as powerful as it was 50 years ago.

My biggest recommendations would have to be Psycho, Halloween, and Rosemary's Baby, if you haven't seen them yet.

Yeah, Flag is amazing. I usually have a hard time connecting with Mecha anime, I mean there are obviously some that are great, but Flag was something I really fell in love with. The style, the presentation, the themes... it just blew me away. I've always been a documentary lover, so it's probably no surprise it ended up as one of my favorites.

Oh, Princess Tutu continually gets better and better, building up to one of the best anime conclusions ever. There are a lot of things I love about it: the integration of music and story, the play on classic fairytales, deconstruction of the magical girl genre... but largely also because it is a kids anime, I'm impressed someone wrote such a powerful, complex and inspiring show for kids.

So what is your husbands taste in anime? Just curious.
NeverKnowsBest26 Oct 16, 2011 9:07 PM
I decided to check out Noir, first episode was interesting... the music if phenomenal.
NeverKnowsBest26 Oct 15, 2011 4:43 PM
Well, as I mentioned, Usagi Drop and Penguindrum are my favorites of the year so far. Usagi Drop is just a delightful ray of sunshine, loved every second of it. Penguindrum is the spiritual successor of one of my favorites, Revolutionary Girl Utena... so I'm definitely interested where it is going.

Dantalian could have been much better if they actually developed the characters.

Hanasaku Iroha was a joy to watch, as was Ikoku Meiro no Croisée.

Guilty Crown is off to a good start; great animation and interesting premise. The world seems a bit to close to Code Geass, though.

Chihayafuru is the show I'm most looking forward to seeing of the new shows; shows a whole lot of promise and has a great director at its helm.

So, what do you think of the anime that have come out this year? I don't care much for most of them, but there are a few that are great; namely Usagi Drop and Mawaru Penguindrum.
It’s time to ditch the text file.
