His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
If that's what you think about Gundam 0079, you should watch The Origin. I'm on ep4 out of six and it's been pretty short on action as a whole.

EDIT: Or, hell, Iron Blooded Orphans. It's a departure from the Gundam series, as it doesn't take place in the same continuity (unlike every other Gundam series/OVA/movie released since '79).

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

Im going to make a Dark Souls comparison bear with me

Its like Dark Souls in that Killy, the main guy is on an adventure for something in a megastructure spanning the solar system. Its an easy read because theres little talking and the ''story'' is minimal. Youll mostly be looking at incredibly well drawn environments and creatures. The anime is based on a later chapter in the manga.
Spoiler
Its dark as fuck and the definition of cyberpunk

It`s alright, it has few flaws, but overall it`s ok.

Memories (Various directors, Madhouse, 1995) This one's pretty interesting: an anthology of three different short films, all written and directed by different people, but intended to form a cohesive piece. The first story is called Magnetic Rose and was written by Satoshi Kon of Perfect Blue fame. This is definitely the best of the three stories, and I'd actually be inclined to give it a 7/10 if it weren't so bogged down by the other two lackluster stories, Stink Bomb and Cannon Fodder (very, very appropriate titles). While all three of them have some beautiful illustrations and animation, only Magnetic Rose managed to captivate me all the way through with its story. The creepy sci-fi setting coupled with the deeply troubling themes of how our memories can be seen as both real and imaginary at the same time make this an easy favorite, whereas the others just weren't nearly as thought-provoking. It's a bit of a shame, too; this may have had the potential to become one of my favorites. I'll put it on the rewatch list, though. 4/10

Crayon Shin-chan (Shin-Ei Animation, 1992, ten episodes) For what it IS, this show is honestly pretty great, but for only one reason: the Funimation dub. I remember watching episodes of this when it was airing on Adult Swim, and I didn't even realize it was an anime at the time, let alone a mockery of one. What was originally a child-oriented comedy show in Japan was reworked into a more adult-oriented one with lots of blatant Americanization. Apparently, they even reordered some of the episodes and rewrote certain plots, the result of which is a totally incomprehensible yet extremely entertaining mess. That said, I don't give a fuck about the original show at all, and I certainly wouldn't watch 1000 episodes of it (especially knowing it's not going to be nearly as funny), hence the rating. The dub is merely proof that the West does literally everything better. 6/10

Ranma ½ (Studio Deen, 1989, six episodes) It has a cute premise, I'll give it that. But every single episode after the first is just an unbearable cringe-fest, and I kinda fucking hated every second of it. Granted, it's not the kind of subject matter I expect Japan to handle very maturely or with any degree of taste, but it's still pretty offensive, and I'm told by some trustworthy folks that it only gets worse. I think I've had enough. 1/10

DNA² (Madhouse, 1994, completed) For whatever reason, I decided to watch both this and the 1995 OVA in their entirety, given how short they both were, but I totally regret doing so. While the premise is somewhat relevant to my interests, it may have had a little bit more potential if it wasn't just another schlocky shonen romp. Quite frustrating to watch, and the ending was not only fucking retarded, but borderline insulting. Avoid. 3/10

Shin Megami Tensei: Tokyo Revelation (J.C. Staff, 1995, completed) There's a reason why Megami Tensei is one of the most inaccessible franchises of all time, and OVAs like this are not exactly helping with that. Not that it's even trying, but still. This is shit. 2/10

Saber Marionette R (Zero-G Room, 1995, completed) I don't even fucking understand this trash. 2/10

Elementalors (Katsuhito Akiyama, AIC, 1995) 4/10

Princess Minerva (Group TAC, 1995, completed) 1/10

Sailor Victory (Unknown studio, 1995, completed) 2/10

Megami Tengoku (Unknown studio, 1995, completed) 1/10

i don't usually make it far enough to see any, but they're not something i generally look out for anyway

i suppose if i knew that the next episode was just going to be a recap, i would probably skip it i guess

why

I was watching Samurai Champloo and a recap episode came on. I sat there for a bit wondering if I should skip it or not, but then decided against it because the episode had some good bits in between the recaps. I thought I'd ask cause it's something most animes tend to have and was wondering if anyone else usually skips them

oddly enough, that hasn't ever been said to me just yet

i think if someone were to glance at my MAL, they'd probably assume that i'm not the type to just "turn my brain off" in order to enjoy something more (though i suppose the closest i've come to doing so was with golden boy)

speaking of which, my MAL's average rating actually increased by 0.01 with my last update

FUCK
