years ago, on TV, not even sure anymore how many seasons... maybe even all of it? Did not like when it came up with the typical anime (shounen?) bullshit - those twin siblings or that nanny and all such crap. years ago, on TV, not even sure anymore how many seasons... maybe even all of it?

Add - More Coquelicot-zaka kara Well, fair enough, an OK film. But to me it felt too "try-hard", or also "fake". The nostalgia in which "good old simple happy days" are presented feels not genuine to me. Goro Miyazaki wasn't even born when the story takes place and somehow - it was as if to me it shone through, that he simply did not feel this nostalgia himself. Add to that the world back then being depicted so happy-happy and everything solving out so nicely - it felt like too much of a try to mimic his father's works. Nevertheless, it's not really bad or so, just not what one might hope for from a Ghibli film/ the Miyazaki name, resp. too much of what one might hope for from a Ghibli/ Miyazaki film

Add - More High School DxD This caught me totally off-guard, when it was the next series within weekly anime night on German Free-TV (Pro7 maxx) - I was all WTF, I must have looked like that OMG-cat. :p Being caught so off-guard was not a bad thing, I think - that way I could just let it happen and entertain me. I had never before seen anything like this - nothing tagged harem or ecchi at all. So all its jokes and stuff were new and wild and funny to me. I still think it holds some genuine funny ideas that are not a hundredth copy of same-same. I always had a weak spot for socially awkward male dunce characters, and to me Hyodo Issei is the legitimate reincarnation of BBC-series "Coupling"'s Jeff Murdock, so this was really welcome. I also think the series is very well-made from a craftmanship point of view - pacing and timing etc. . And even the over-the-top sexualisation to me as a new-to-ecchi viewer added to the series hysteria - to me the first 10 episodes all were like high-speed, high-energy, WTF is going on here, I can't believe it -fun-entertainment. Last two episodes then focused too much for my taste on magical fights, which I find a rather boring thing.

Add - More High School DxD New -75% comedy - often feels tacked-on, +75% drama and plot - and not really bad at that, but I wanted crazy comedy. WTF is it that suddenly there are more attractive men than women ? Well, almost. Really puzzling. (Kiba anyways, now : White Dragon guy, Azazeel*, Rias's brother, maybe more I dont remember ...) Also - howTF could they do that to Koneko ? She was the best: the only one not falling for Issei, and also the only melee style fighter. Now she's all lovey dovey, and also now she just throws balls of magic. LAME! -1 ! * Azazeel - va: Koyama, Rikiya. And as if that wasn't cool enough, he is overall a candidate for the most laid-back, nice-guy, good-looking badass character since Spike Spiegel. +1 lol

Love the nods to Winsor McCay and maybe even Monty Python animations. The English dub is strong - Jean Simmons, Lauren Bacall, Emily Mortimer, Christian Slater, Billy Crystal. I was a bit worried about the latter, but he does it surprisingly well.

I liked Kido Ibuki's voiceacting much - only 16 yo when recording - and even though hers is not my fav. kind of voice at all. Also Ishigami Shizuka adds to her character - and her voice is the kind I like to hear. :D

Add - More Tonari no Totoro Realismo Magico - a genre in literature, mostly defined by the protagonists's world views and perceptions having a reflux onto the author/ the narration. This way, all in Totoro is within the realms of realism - it is only when the girls's imaginations run wild - mainly the young one, but the old one is still young enough to sometimes follow her sister in this - so when tired, or anxious + wishing, that THEN those wild things are portrayed as "real". Well, actually, all but one tiny detail, which can not be explained away, so it stays being fantastic. I perceive that one as a signature, a "secret wink" from Miyazaki.
