Frem is a Japanophile. You would be lucky to find anything on his pull list that doesn't have those pre pubescence animated girls with big blinking Pokemon eyes
That's what people like FremFirma do. They only recommend purely Japanese stuff approved by Japan Inc
I like the odd J-animation like Akira or G.I.T.S but I'm not obsessive about the genre. The fanboyish attitude and Japanophilla following Japan's animation industry is what turns many people off the genre.
You pick up a movie like animated Wonder Woman or the animated A-Bugs-Life, Monsters vs Aliens then you experience entertainment and what you see is what you get
you don't need to educate yourself with a trilogy, quintology, or septology of japan movies to get the message and as bad as Disney etc can be when you sit down in the theatre to watch one of their movies at least the movie is family friendly and you don't have to worry about the kids being inflicted with subliminal tentacle pornography messages.

Yanno, I had thought we could have a nice discussion outside of RWED about animation without your friggin hatred, racism, nationalism and intolerance for just ONCE - and here you are bringing it out here as a personal attack, without even adding a blasted thing to the discussion but obvious lies and personal attacks.
You wanna do crap like that, you do it over there, do NOT be coming out here and inflicting it on the rest of the site users - there's been a longstanding unspoken agreement about that sorta thing, and you've just crossed the line, mister.
For that alone you oughta be tied to a chair and forced to watch Snow Fairy Sugar over, and over, and over again, jerk.
Doubly ironic that I was comin here to question the "classic" value of an anime that most certainly didn't impress me.
But we'll get to that in a moment - to refute your idiotic trolling, I can quite easily point out that there's quite a few anime works I consider little better than filler, like Naruto, Pokemon, Inuyasha and Bleach, for example, Appleseed, despite the hype, was especially jarring in it's awfulness.
Plus you'd have to go pretty far to find something less fitting to your supposed description than Black Lagoon, which you'd know if you actually read through the thread instead of coming here for no purpose other than sheer nastiness, and might I point out to you that Monsters, Inc happens to be done in much the same style you're flaming here despite being an american-CG animation, but as usual facts have no place in your petty little games, do they ?
You know, facts like Felidae being german, or the TV Animated Batman, Gargoyles and Avatar: Last Airbender being american-made.
Or the fact that I have cultural *issues* with japanese society which I would be happy to discuss at length somewhere more appropriate than here.
So it's obvious to anyone and everyone you came here only to be nasty and make personal attacks, which you'd be best advised to be takin somewhere else in a hurry, it's as inappropriate here as it is unwelcome.
That said...
I just got to watching Armitage III - and wasn't all that impressed by it, while the animation and soundtrack quality was passable, the story itself wasn't carried too well and came across in a very disjointed fashion, as if large parts of it were missing, and it does a poor job of exploring the questions about the nature of humanity that it seemed intending to do.
That was the signature series variation which runs about 2hr 20min.
The Poly-Matrix version is even worse in that respect because while they did try harder for the voice acting, and cleaned up the animation, they did so at a cost of hacking out even more of the story to cram it into 90min resulting in the "movie" making no sense whatever.
The follow-up, Dual-Matrix, seems slightly better in story, but at a terrible toll on the animation quality, full of still panel drags, static backgrounds and screenshot panovers, so overall I wasn't exactly impressed by any of it.
Only one part of it spoke to me at all, though powerfully, when Armitage asks the question behind the tears of every mistreated child there ever was.
"If you did not *want* me, then why did you MAKE me ?!"
That question itself answered instantly what she was, cause only someone "human" could ask it, regardless of their form.
But really, save your money on this one, you ain't missin much.

In my younger days as a tween, way before Bleach, Naruto, Gundam, and loads of other Anime, I really liked Kimagure Orange Road.
At the time, I had this thing for females who were like Ayukawa Madoka.
Incidentally, years later, I actually ended up with someone like that and married her.

Oh, btw, I just started watching an older series I haven't seen.
Fist of the Blue Sky.
I was a big fan of Hokuto No Ken (Fist of the North Star), but never saw this series.
Also, I'm surprised no one mentioned Rouruni Kenshin.
And, of course, Ranma 1/2.
And since we're on the subject
InuYasha: The Final Act started back up last October to finish off the series.
Anyone else watching that?

I would (as I am Rumiko Takahashi's b*tch), but I'm in The Wrong Country and have to wait for the dub to come out on DVD.
