Blood: The Last Vampire

The Japan Media Arts Festival is an annual festival held since 1997 by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs. The festival begins with an open competition and culminates with the awarding of several prizes and an exhibition.

Based on judging by a jury of artistic peers, awards are given in four categories: Art (formerly called Non-Interactive Digital Art), Entertainment (formerly called Interactive Art; including video games and websites), animation, and manga. Within each category, one Grand Prize, four Excellence Prizes, and (since 2002) one Encouragement Prize are awarded.

The Oofuji Noburou Award (大藤信郎賞) is an animation award given at the Mainichi Film Awards. It is named after Japanese animator Noburou Oofuji.

Following the death of Noburou Oofuji in 1961, Mainichi established a new award in his honor to recognize animation excellence. A specialist in silhouette animation, Oofuji was one of the earliest Japanese animators to gain international recognition.

With the growth of the animation industry in Japan, the award in the 1980s came to be dominated by big budget studio productions, over the work of the independent animators for whose efforts it was originally established. To address this concern, the Animation Grand Award was established to reward large scale cinematic animation, enabling the Oofuji award to focus on shorter pieces again.

This is a collection of series to see if you're searching for a female lead you will be able to cheer for as more as possible. Her main goal will not be romance.

This is a list of anime that Quentin has either watched and liked or anime that he would most likely enjoy, based on his filmography of non-linear narratives and overall taste of foreign movies, for example.





“I want to have the fun of doing anime and I love anime, but I can’t do storyboards because I can’t really draw and that’s what they live and die on.” Quentin Tarantino.

Get ready for Halloween with 30 nights worth of horror OVAs and movies that are guaranteed to deliver you spooks and scares.

***Some of these anime can be hard to find so its best to research for links or downloads beforehand for a smoother viewing experience.

I remember going to the video store, browsing the shelves, and picking out a movie based on the box art alone. I'd look at the front, I'd look at the back, and more often than not I'd put it back on the shelf. Occasionally there'd be something like Ghost in the Shell or Ninja Scroll, and I knew I just had to rent it, or more accurately get my parents to rent it.

This isn't just a list of movies that were available on VHS at my local video store, this is also a list of movies that I would have rented had they been there. They have box art and synopsis appeal, regardless of the reality contained within.

This is my virtual VHS store, where we say Japanimation and we don't stock TV shows unless they're only a few episodes long. I hope you like violence and nudity. Things here also generally skew older, keeping with the VHS theme.

A collection of serious and dark anime that I would recommend to adult audiences.

good anime with a score of 6 or less.

Mamoru Oshii is a popular creator and has been involved in several anime in both major and minor roles.

This stack is intended as a guide to specifically just his own creative works, all anime listed here were either directed by Oshii or created by him.

Entries not directed by Oshii have a note explaining his involvement.

Series which aired on the Sci-fi/Syfy Channel's Ani-Monday block; Ani-Tuesday entries also included. Ordered alphabetically by their English titles.

God of the Sword - by Anime Prince Mugen

Watch "Sword of the Stranger" (Stranger: Mukou Hadan) if you do not watch anything else.

Anime full of Halloween spirit and spooky vibes.

Requirements for inclusion:
1. Halloween themes/tropes.
2. Western Halloween/horror tropes/characters.
3. Horror and/or action anime that give me a "Halloween" vibe (such as featuring vampires, werewolves, and so on).
4. Halloween inspired aesthetic.
5. Anime that give me "October" vibes.

What's not included:
1. Anime with witches that isn't spooky inspired setting (eg: Majo no Tabitabi).
2. Horror anime that doesn't feel distinctly "Halloween" enough.

Details:
1. Only anime that I have watched myself are included.
2. One entry per series (usually the first season will be listed).

A selection of shows that centralizes on the idea of evil, whether as a direct presence or a symbolic representation, that revels in themes of hostility, corruption, debauchery and death that ultimately, cause the grievous and tragic collapse of one's sense of humanity. Due to its dark nature, this list is unfiltered and therefore, may display lurid elements that are problematic. But if you're here to seek the thrills of violence and the spills of blood, then witness the dance of the Devil.

Caveats:

• Most entries contain explicit materials, including gore and sexual content.
• Anime formats vary from film, anthology, short/ova and full-length series.
• If there are recommendation, I'll provide an extended note in the caption.

This is a list of all the anime shows that aired on Animax (Portugal). A defunct portuguese channel dedicated to all things anime.

God(& Demi-god) Tier anime shows that do not get the credit they deserve.

More mature stuff without common anime tropes.

An anime with an edgy protagonist with a difficult, sad fate who is trying to change the world (perform revenge, fight demons or defeat their arch enemies as an option). Often in cynical or severely cruel ways. In general, the embodiment of those fantasies that visited you as a child while listening to Bullet for My Valentine and watching Underworld.

Please note that the criterion was precisely a certain type of protagonist, and not the nature of the anime itself, in principle, since there are quite a lot of edgy anime as such. I wanted to create a stack specifically for a certain archetype of characters.
