Bun's Recommendations

Possibly the most perfect film to ever be animated (or created by human hands even). 100 carrots. PLEASE LET ME SEE THIS IN THEATERS!<p><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jin-Roh:_The_Wolf_Brigade'>More on Wikipedia</a></p> A beautifully animated movie featuring romantic retro cyberpunk cowboy vampires (say that 5 times fast haha)!<p>Sadly, the original voice acting is in a very cut-dry, deadpan English with repetitive dialogue script. There was a re-release with Japanese dub, so I'm not sure what happened to use English as the 'original' initial dub. Despite its shortcoming, the soundtrack is amazing and each scene set to it becomes hauntingly memorable. You'll know which scenes I'm referring to when you hear it! The novel-adapted story is toned down for the general audience; the novel had very adult, sensitive content that adds another layer of dimension to the characters. However, the lack on certain context does not take away from the overall plot!</p><p>Bunni rates this 4 out 5 carrots! I definitely would own it in a physical blu-ray copy if they ever redistribute it again!</p><p><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_Hunter_D:_Bloodlust'>More on Wikipedia</a></p> Woe it is to be a girl in love, but how wonderful nonetheless! A romantic chase that transcends time and space.<p>Out of all few films that the late Satoshi Kon created, this was the one that hit hardest. This film was so beautifully crafted, visually and sequentially. The soundtrack is so tender or lively when it wants to be, commanding the listener to feel the moments right down to their core. It is an homage to Japanese cinema (another showcase on another passion that transcends time) and how even old samurai films can still captivate audiences to this day. Millenium Actress also reflects this notion, its stylistic choices dates itself in both the available technology that it had during the movies making (hand-painted traditional on cels) and in its main premise. Speaking of which!<p>This is a movie about the wonderful life of a young girl, whose purpose in life is to be in love with and to chase after the unknown!</p><p>Bunni rates this 5 out of 5 carrots! What a perfectly crafted story that also makes me want to enjoy the life I have, at least the best I can. I definitely want to own this in physical someday! Thankfully it is not trapped in a vault and is available!</p><p><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Actress'>More on Wikipedia</a></p> <a href='https://bsky.app/profile/itou-yu.bsky.social'>BLUESKY</a> <a href="http://hinomatsuri.gengaten.com/index.html">WEBSITE</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/katsura_5600/?hl=en">INSTA</a> <a href="https://x.com/takamatsumisaki">TWITTER</a> <a href="https://https://x.com/urasawa_naoki">TWITTER</a> <a href="https://https://x.com/NEBU_KURO">TWITTER</a> <a href='https://bsky.app/profile/itou-yu.bsky.social'>BLUESKY</a>
