Ok so It seems this site is full of sensitive little snots who can't appreciate violence and symbolism, but anyways on to fucking Violence Jack an awesome ova series of three. This review will be for the 2nd episode of the Japanese release "Evil Town".

Plot: 10
ok the story, the story is about how humanity got hit by a bunch of natural disasters and 1 big ass earth quake. Because of this some humans have gotten stuck underground, they split into factions, they live disgustingly low eating cockroaches and shit(literally), 1 faction is the buisiness men, then you have have the criminal bike gang ... dudes, and then you have the innocent fashion models, this is all important because it reflects certain aspects of our society, the business men are like the conservatives of the old days when shit was normal, the bike gang is the evolution of the street criminals, and the fashion models represent the young new generation, the first to groups exploit the shit out of the innocent and violence jack decides to help them out, but violence jack is basically a manifestion of the violence of wherever he shows up. this anime shows how low humanity will fall once the citys are gone and there is no utilities and no law people will do the most disgusting things because thats what they are without a civilization (disgusting animals). thats why this movies plot is really great cause it gets you thinking. , theres also an element of retribution, in the form of violence jack while also showing that retribution while feeling good at the time does not solve anything.

Art :10
So some of you who are used to this new cg shit and stuff thats all done on computers may not like this style, well I'm here to tell you to fucking get over it and watch it anyways, This anime has some of the best fight animations ever the art really captures the emotions of the scene and heightens them very well the fight between mad soully and Violence jack, mad becomes a demon of the flesh and is probably the most disturbing display of a demon i have seen in anime. I have not seen another style of fight animation like this, not even Fist of the north star is as good as that fight scene

Sound 10: the music goes from hype to soft depending on the scene is does a good job.

Chracters 10: I would have given this an 8 if they didn't have violence jack but whatever, the chracters really give you some people to hate and some who seem alright in the begining turn out to be monsters. also props to that one girl who just kept kicking ass till she died I wish she had played a bigger role but oh well.

Enjoyment 10: I have not seen anime that has made me feel this way in a while it actually phased me which is good because I got my emotions turned on and I felt more connected to the violence that was happening I wanted to see the assholes get their just desserts and they got it.

overalll 10 good anime If you don't like strong emotional content don't watch it
I'm sorry this review is so shit but I had to say my piece since people seem to bash on this.

That was an awesome animation about the animators nightmares, it was made in the 70s one guy made, excellent animation the backgrounds are all surreal. Seems like nature is telling the guy "watch out for parasites and shit" great stuff if only more people would animate their nightmares. Btw for those who think that the animation is shit, note that it was all done by one man in the 70s who had limited equipment so appreciate his ability to tranlate his dream onto paper I doubt you could do the same.
