Made a 3,000 word review on a bad harem show of the 80's...
Inuyasha is also not good.
I feel Maison Ikkoku didn't waste your time l like those other shows. It's just a solid romance story and I love it.
• Honno No Tenkousei: The only OVA I could score a 10/10. If you like Ashita no Joe this is a strong recommendation. It pays a lot of homage to 70's anime, specifically Ashita no Joe. It captures that 70's aesthetic so well while having incredible sakuga. Take the hot bloodedness of Gurren Lagann and mix it with the boxing of Ashita no Joe. It's very straightforward in its storytelling and is only 50 minutes.
• Puni Puni Poemii: Excel Saga on crack. It's a parody of Magical Girl anime. Specifically Cardcaptor Sakura. I don't want to overhype it. But I love it. It goes a million miles an hour. It's so fast and so unlike any other comedy anime you've seen.
• Space Dandy: Same director as Cowboy Bebop. And I feel that Dandy's highest highs are on the same level as Cowboy Bebop. S2 of Dandy is definitely a 10/10 for me. Don't be fooled by how goofy the show is during the beginning. Especially in S2, the episodes become very esoteric and abstract.
• Ie Nako Ko: World Master Piece Theater anime adaptation that I gave a 10/10. Since you like Anne of Green Gables, I thought it would be fitting. You will love it....probably.
Since your are a sucker for SOL-Dramas. like me. I would suggest you. to get deeper into Japanese cinema and start to get into Iranian cinema.
I suggest watching More films by Ozu and Mizoguchi. both made timeles classics. that give accurate representation for the japanese society in their respective times and the varius socio-political issuees, the japanese society faced back in the day. for Mizoguchi. I would suggest starting with *The Story of the Last Chrysanthemums*. since it is my favorite film by him from what I have watched, and I am sure it would blow you away, as it did to me.
For more japanese cinema. I would suggest watching the films of Hirokazu Kore-eda. he is good for SOL-dramas. start with *Still walking*. and then, i would personally, suggest picking up *After life*, as it is another personal favorite of mine from his body of work.
For more japanese cinema. I would suggest watching *Love exposure*, it is not a SOL-Drama film. it is the opposite in seveal ways, but it is my favorite film of all time. it is 4 hours long, but it was the most enjotable 4 hours, i ever had the pleasure to experince in my life, I cant ever praise this film enough
Moving to Iranian cinema, it is my favorite Cinema by country, every Iranian film i watched so far, was amazing to me. their films sometime tend to be very low-end in regardes to the audio-production aspects, but they manage to craft stories that are so memoarble and engaging in my opinion.
I suggest watching any of these films, does not matter what you watch first.
Close up 1990
A separation 2011
Children of heaven 1997
A moment of Innocence 1996
Where Is My Friend’s House? 1987
Taste of cherry 1997
Life and nothing more 1992
Still life 1974
The wind will carry us 1999
The circle 2000
Turtles can fly 2004
About elly 2009
Children of Heaven 1997
Those are the only Iranian films. I have watched, but all of them were amazing in my opinion.
I am no longer into cinema, But those are the films and filmakers that I appreciate the most, as of now. and. oh, sorry for any mistakes in regardes to my spelling or usage of grammar. and sorry for spacing out too much.
And, oh, edited, Since you like Texhnolyze, I suggest you, to watch the movie *Come and see, 1985*. It is such a bleak and well made war movie, I dont even care for war/military media, but this one did a fantastic job in offering a memorable, super-atmospheric, and immersive experience, about the horrors men face in the times of crisis and absolute despair.
And sure, no problem. I prefer interacting with someone before sending a friend request or accepting one. I like speaking and learning about new people (^∇^).
Thank you. You also have an interesting list. Maybe we could compare lists and see what we both like.
