Go on, please. I used to love all this kind of stuff when i was younger but I kinda grew out of it, for some reason i've got an urge to watch some now though.

To give you an idea of the kind of stuff I'm lookin for i'll list a few of the ones i've enjoyed in the past.

Devil Man, Tokyo Doomed Megapolis, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Dominion Tank Police, AD Police, Cyber City OEDO, Geno Cyber, Venus Wars and a few others that i can't remember.

As long as it's got plenty of action and it's not slow paced then good, good. I'm not intrested in the weird Japenease soap type weirdfests like Urusei Yatsura.

So go for it, list some, they need to be available on DVD though.

Street Fighter: The Movie (no, not the cheesy real-life one). This is one of the best Anime films around though. I haven't seen the sequel, but I've heard it's even better than the first.

Now go get it you big girl.

Is 20 too young?

Had a look round for this but I don't think an uncut version is available other than in Japanease language with no subtitles. Can't be buying stupid cut versions.

La Blue Girl is another one that was banned in this country, they've got the uncut version on DVD though from what i've read it's just one of those stupid Hentai films.

Perfect Blue, Bubblegum Crisis. Dirty Pair and a double pack of Cyber City OEDO + Tokyo Babylon all look pretty intresting.

Anyone seen the Bubblegum Crisis or Dirty Pair films?

I've read the Manga and was wondering if they're any good.

Akira-THE Classic
Perfect Blue- Hitcock of Anime
Street Fighter 2- excellent action

all greats except maybe overfiend, funny at parts but way to much hentai


Street Fighter Alpha- see SF2
Blood the Last Vampire- amazing animation
Gunbuster- only has subs but excellent, dont watch the end if your feeling down
Any Rurouni Kenshin you can find- try the manga aswell

+tons more but some of the best are difficult to get in uk

Akira was... alright, I guess. Kinda wish I hadn't wasted £9.99 on it though.

And I heard the sequel to Street Fighter 2 isn't as good, and I know that the animation certainly isn't as good (I've seen bits of it on Sci Fi)
