Story - The main story itself is not half bad for a fantasy themed anime. Some things are a bit unclear that I don't think I missed yet go unexplained. The whole thing feels like a small part of a the novels it was adapted from. That said, you can follow along with what's happening for the most part so it could be worse. It's no Lord of the Rings but the story was absolutely fine for it's genre.

Art - The art for me is really great, I'm a sucker for the genre and this classic style. However, Deedlit and Pirotess' ears really shot out ...

Story - The story doesn't get very deep which is kind of a strength and weakness at the same time. I think it should have went more into the moral and psychological questions of robots being people, or not being people, etc. Or, it should have never bothered and went all in with action and being a lot of fun. Instead we kind of miss out on having either thing in enough quantity to really matter? The movie seems to have some moments of having cool ideas but the tone changes a lot and the story is just so surface level but simultaneously wants to ...

Story - I feel as though this was a Queen Bee story that happened to have Golgo in it, and you could make the argument for most Golgo media being that way but really he's just not in most of the movie. I didn't have super high expectations and honestly the story can be very good sometimes, and then switch to laughably bad. That said, it's just very uneven but overall serviceable. I would give it a higher score here but some aspects were just glaringly bad in my opinion. There's things to like here but, as said before, too uneven.

Art - This is a ...

Story - Very simple in both a good and bad way, but I think a bit more fleshing out was in order. The run time is only 47-ish minutes counting credits so that's not much time to tell the story of an entire other world. What is there, isn't bad, but it's all very much been done a lot even in the time it was made most of it was nothing new. Easily the worst part of the movie.

Art - I don't hate the style used here. It's very cutesy, gives me slight Ranma vibes from the main character. Neither is it like really great ...

I really wanted to like this a lot more than I did. I am not familiar with the source it's based off of, but my guess is that the source material has more time put into the characters. In my opinion the biggest thing stopping me from really enjoying it more is the somewhat strange pacing and open ended ending.

I could go into particular things I liked or didn't like but in the end I think it needed more than 83 minutes to build the characters. It does successfully create a very somber mood and I like the juxtaposition between most scenes being not only ...

Story - To me it feels like one of those very anime-like stories I don't care for where it's less about the actual telling of events or actual things happening and more about having a scene where someone cries and feeling emotions. I just don't really jive with that kind of media so for me it just didn't do much. I didn't feel very attached to any of the characters, not that they were unlikable or bad but most of them are so one note or bland that I just didn't feel an attachment to them as people. A little more humanity all around would ...

Story - I'm honestly not a huge fan of the actual story. I can look passed potholes but some things seem sloppy or only halfway thought out (example, the gold toothed doctor). I don't hate the story but the fact the last fight because Edward punching shit in your typical Shounen fashion kind of really devalues the more interesting Team dynamic between Alphonse and Edward that they had in the beginning of the series. It's far from terrible and I kind of wish it gave more of an idea of what every character did after the events (it doesn't tell you what Olivier Armstrong or ...

Watched all 39 episodes with my boyfriend as we ate dinner. Neither of us cared for it. I was especially frustrated by all the loose plot. I feel like it was trying to evoke emotion but having almost no substance. Sure, I could dig deep and try to find every single instance of how events or objects are metaphors, but the overarching story doesn't come to any kind of meaningful conclusion and leaves so much stuff unanswered that it baffles me how well received this anime is.

As my scores indicate, it had a strong art style and I dig the music a lot. There's much ...

I recently saw this movie in theatre at a Fathom event that promotes new releases of Blu Rays and such. It was the most fun I have ever had in theatre, and I feel blessed to have seen this 40 year old film on a big screen.

The story is wonderful. I don't want to spoil it but it's such a romantic journey and it has plenty of fun for everyone. It's just finely crafted.

The art and animation is fantastic for it's time, and holds up today. It's Miyazaki so you know what to expect.

I gave the sound a 7 because really it kind of did ...
