I've been a huge anime fan since I first saw the Miyazaki film "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" when I was very young.
Watching that as a kid sparked something inside me that has made me a seriously rabid anime fiend (among all other things Japanese) ever since . Miyazaki's films are all truly beautiful, I feel sorry for anybody who hasn't given them a chance simply because they're anime (a title that has been given a bad reputation through crap like Naruto and Digimon. I fully admit that the first couple seasons of Pokemon are rad though ^_^)
But I also have a soft spot for anime on the complete opposide side of the spectrum; the super-gory-xxx-rated-limbs-hacked-off-ghoulish-demonic-horror-filled kind.
"Wicked City"-classic horror/xxx anime
"Bio Hunter"
Love it.
Seems you like some of Yoshiaki Kawajiri's work too! You should check out "Pet Shop of Horrors" for some great collabrative work he did. It's more psychological then Wicked City or Bio Hunter is, but it's got some twisted shit in it.
