What best anime movies you've never seen?
« on: July 22, 2009, 04:13:01 pm »
There is alot of anime in this wide world of ours and also alot of anime no one has seen yet that are classics and somehow people hadn't had the time or opportunity to see (Including myself). What great movies you've never seen yet because of those circumstances? For me it's:

Kiki's delivery service: I never had the opportunity to see this Miyazaki classic and I always wanted to. Due to the fact I thought Kiki was a really good character and wanted to see it because of her.

The Sailor moon S and SuperS Movies: Need to buy those DVD's. The S movie was gonna air on Cartoon Network but somehow it never did.

Nausicaa and the valley of the wind: Another Miyazaki classic I never seen. I really do want to see that as well.

anime movie wise.... hmmm,  id have to say CowBoy Bebop the Movie was cool. Then there was Grave of the FireFlies and all its wacky hilariousness(sarcasm) PerfectBlue, NinjaScroll, Girl Who Lept Through Time, its pretty endless actually and its hard to cherry pick the ones that are actaully good and not just good because of "that one scene" or "beacuse the director didnt get it right the first time so he got a friggin re-do over, and over, and now its finally good" You know what I mean  ;)

And also DBZ:Tree of Might  :P

I second Ninja Scroll! Some of my other favs are Akira, Vampire Hunter D, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Demon City Shinjuku, DBZ: Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan. There are so many great ones out there, it's kinda hard to pick.

I totally loved Paprika!!! I really liked Vampire Hunter D too. Whisper of the Heart was really good well pretty much all of Miyazaki's films are fantastic. I also got Origin: Spirits of the past recently and thought it was really good.

I can't watch Grave of the Fireflies it makes me cry, a lot.

Definitely The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, great movie.

Voices of a Distant Star, The Place Promised in Our Early Days, and 5 Centimeters Per Second.  Love those movies, whatever the dude's name is that does them he rocks and I always look forward to his next film.

Miyazaki's movies are always good, I think I have a real soft spot for Whisper of the Heart.  And I actually enjoyed the Karas films, as well as Sword of the Stranger

Grave of the Fireflies, Akira, Voices of a Distant Star for sure.

Also a big fan of Memories (Watch it if you haven't), Millennium Actress, and Blade of the Phantom Master.

My neighbors the Yamadas: Our family owns every studio Ghibli film, except this one.  It looks funny though~ I look forward to the day that we will be able to see it.

And does the 4th pokemon movie that came to theaters count?? XD There was just too much of a gap between the movie, and the last episode we saw...I kinna still wanna see it.

I have always regretted not watching grave of the fireflies. I had an opportunity to watch it on anime selects. But, I never did. And I also never seen (forgive me everyone) My neighbor Totoro.

I have seen Vampire Hunter D, FLCL, Neo-Tokyo, Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebob, or Rama 1/2.  Those seem really cool, but I just haven't had the time to watch them.

Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, and The Sky Crawlers are some of my favorites. :3 I feel like I'm forgetting one, though, which I probably am.

Paprika. I was getting ready to watch it, then I got distracted by the internets, so I lost my chance to watch it. D:
That, and Only Yesterday. I was getting ready to watch it, got about 30 minutes in, then got distracted and never got to finishing it.

Paprika, and any miazaki movie are both fantastic.

Personally i'd really suggest the second ghost in the shell movie. Innocence is a little wierd if you don't understand the story line behind ghost in the shell but it's got some absolutely fantastically beautiful moments.

I'm also a fan of 5 cm per second. it's slow but the art's absolutely gorgeous.

I'm seconding basically everything mentioned in earlier posts, but Sword of the Stranger recently blew my mind away. They use traditional waterpainting techniques for many of the backgrounds, and then the CG/non-traditional animation blends perfectly with the backgrounds. Everything is so pretty (and bloody. A plus in my book.) in that movie.
