I love anime. Specifically, series involving any of the following things: weird fantasy elements, super-powers, robots, aliens, wicked humor, crazy villains, horror, ninjas and samurai. I guess that means I like a lot of anime.

    Yes!!! At last! We get the next Miyazaki film!! I’ve heard some good things about this film already and I’m glad we’re finally getting out hands on it. There’s a few rumours going around that this is Miyazaki-sama’s last film… T-T It looks AMAZING!!!! At any rate Miyazaki’s films are always really great. It shows one of the more serious sides of anime and that it’s not just a cartoon. The fact that he can create an entire worlds out of thin air, or create a story about a goldfish… A GOLDFISH! I mean… Wow! That’s what I call amazing! It’s no wonder he’s considered the god of anime!

    Can’t wait, seriously!!

    That’s several months of difference from the original Japanese screening. Still going to be a long wait.
