Since
the film "Akira" was released,
there seems to be a growing interest in Japanese animation which is now
more commonly known as ANIME.
This animation
form may not be the best because of the commonality among titles of having
characters with large eyes and small mouths and the
fact that even in the best films/shows, mouth movements only consist of
"open" and "closed", but the art that the animation
is based on can even surpass the most stunning elements of Disney animated
features and more importantly the subject matter is no different than
live action films.
The goal of
AnimeFlow (my 2002 website that Angelfire still gives life to) is to act as a guide for those who are huge otakus (Japanese
term for fans) of anime to what titles they have to see, and to give those
who are trying to find great animated entertainment viewing recommendations
which may encourage them to give this genre more attention.
Hope you enjoy
your visit and if you have any suggestions to improve this site, please send me an e-mail with these ideas.
Genre: comedy (could be considered
romantic/sci-fi) Length: 60 minutes (2 episodes) Audience
Age: 12+ (this is not the Cartoon
Network version)
Opinion: Great
writing, a cool art style, and very neurotic characters...so
far so good.
This is a review of the dubbed, out of print VHS version.
This is one of the most popular titles in all of anime
spawning multiple spin off series and films.
