Now that's what I'm talking about...a cleansing...an amnesty. Like a purge, but without the killing.
I like that idea A LOT better than trying to defend any side...
That said, I fear that in an era of information terrorism, and black and white thinking, this too will be turned around instantly into a partisan mudfight.
I wasn't going to list my essential list because it is different for everybody...especially for anime, I feel. But this is one of my favorites...The animation is great, the characters are great. It has those little details that when you see them you know you are watching something brilliant.
I am not going to tell you what is essential...but I am going to inform you of a site that will do that and more. It's called Anime on DVD...www.animeondvd.com I recently had a ressurgence in my addiction to anime and this site really brought fuel to the fire...THANKS GUYS! The best from telling you every aspect of the actually anime to what equipment to watch it on. Wow. And about Lain...Maybe I need to watch it again...because a show that leaves my jaw on the ground is Neon Genesis Evangelion...with great characters... Now Lain...I felt it was as if we were reading a fictional bible...trying to find out the philosophy of a world that doesn't exist. Now that might be cool for the Dune series or Wheel of Time...because we are easily involved in their world through billions of books...therefore the philosophy of that world intrigues. Lain on the other hand is just that philosophy which wasn't so intiguing...the world wasn't interesting. So basically for me fictional philosophy by itself does no' do anything for me.
