I finished watching The Cat Returns last night. As I mentioned in a previous post, this is a wonderful movie. My only complaint is that it is too short! Anyways, after watching that, I decided to watch the other half of the dvd, Ghiblis Episode II. Man, I was blown away! This is the coolest animation I have ever seen! Granted, I don’t watch hardly any anime, but the animation style is so much more innovative and imaginative than anything in the Miyazaki movies. Episode II consists of three short stories (and a really awesome dance sequence) that follows three main characters. Each of the stories is in a different style. The first one is about a lunchtime outing to a curry rice place. A very spicy curry rice place. *sigh* I can’t really do justice to Ghiblis II… so I am not going to even try to describe it any more. If you have access to this dvd and a region 2 or region-free dvd player (or can get the ayashii chinese vcd) I strongly recommend watching Ghiblis II!!!!!!
