I've been unable to come up with anything worth analyzing for quite some time now and I'm hoping I can get your help with that. I think it would be good to focus on something shorter, so that I can go really in-depth with it but still get something out fairly quickly.

So, that being said, what are some of your favourite animated movies or very short TV shows that you would like to hear me talk about (like 6 episodes or less)?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions! ^_^

Tales of Gargantinaria

Well, you know my favourite show, but that’s over 6 episodes. The things I watch tend to be around 13 episodes at least; I’ve never seen a 6-episode show. I do know of a 2-volume manga series called ‘shuriken and pleats’, but that’s not a show. If I find something, I’ll let you know.

Oh stand-alone movies are good too, if you have any of those you'd like to suggest

Tales of Gargantinaria

Well, anything by ‘Mamoru Hosoda’ is amazing. The ones I have seen include: ‘The girl that leapt through time’ ‘Summer wars’ ‘Wolf children’ And ‘the boy and the beast’. Wolf children has to be the best one in my opinion, but if not that, the boy and the beast would be the second best. Other than Hosoda, ‘brave story’ is an animated film about a young boy who travels to another world to grant his wish. I think it was a fun movie, but nothing amazing. For a live action film, I have ‘sky high’; a detective story about the supernatural elements surrounding a woman’s death. And at last, we have ‘Food Fight!’, the greatest movie of all time! (It honestly isn’t, but it would be good to look at for a laugh. Maybe a sarcastic ‘positive’ review? ^^)

Oh yeah I've definitely heard of those! I think I'll start by checking out those movies. Thanks for the suggestions :)

The film “Garden of words” would be my recommendation.

I'd suggest Punch Line, it has 12 episodes though. Greatly underrated show in my opinion. Are we strictly talking anime here?

Lowart

I probably won't use it for this, but I will put it on my list of suggestions for the future :) Thanks! And I think it would be good to stick with anime for now

Anime films that had an impact on me personally Perfect blue - satoshi kon and his other film Millenium actress. Colorful - keiichi hara In this corner of the world - sunao katabuchi Metropolis - Rintaro I tend to love movies more depending on how much they affect me when i watch them alone, so most of these are “quieter” with less action in them. Satoshi kon is one of my favorite directors!! Sadly he passed away on my birthday and it was one of the most devestating things for me when i was first getting into anime, but in a way it makes his movies mean so much more to me. He also has a really wonderful anime, paranoia agent that i’d reccomend to anyone who enjoys psychological anime.

Fantastic suggestions! Many of those are films I've had on my plan to watch list for a while, so I'll move those to the patron suggestion list I'm making now :)

And, also, yeah it's really sad that Kon passed away. His work is amazing and I'm excited to dive deeper into it. Perfect Blue is one of my favourite films, actually! ^_^

Do you have a MAL? Not that it would work right now anyway.

Tales of Gargantinaria

I think Punch line gets judged very quickly due to its premise and abundance of different story-elements; ghosts, time-travel, and supernatural powers all in the same story. I personally really enjoyed it my first time through, and do respect a lot of the things that I think it did right. However, it’s been years since I’ve seen it, so I need to watch it again at some point for a more accurate opinion. I do think it is worth watching though for sure.
