Hey, it's Captain Harlock, and he's more than just a deus ex machina for some kid's journey into manhood! He swashbuckles! |

So-so |
The problem with a show being too relaxing is that eventually you're just going to fall asleep. |

Back when I was a kid, my parents actually stopped letting us watch anime on this "Alternative" station they were broadcasting JAPANIMATION on, because it portrayed the atomic bombings as something other than an unequivocal positive? Also it wasn't entirely accurate to the way people actually die in an atomic bombing, oh man! Because the manner in which thousands of people were horrifically destroyed is IMPORTANT in determining how moral the event was. (My feelings on the event are quite a bit more complicated, but I'm mainly just illustrating my father's laughably one-dimensional worldview.) |

| Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (TV) |
Very good |
Oh man, oh man. It's inherently ridiculous and overblown and campy as anything, throwing anything it can out to see if it can hook a few more viewers, offering narrative that is alternately autistic and compelling, and I just can't get enough of it. |
| Cutie Honey (TV) |
Very good |
Satisfying seventies camp, the birth of fanservice, and there's probably only Cat Soup and a few Mamoru Oshii movies that are better to watch when stoned off your sphincter. |
| Daphne in the Brilliant Blue (TV) |
Decent |

| Death Note (TV) |
Very good |
The most ridiculous thing on television. A constant parade of ever-increasing, baffling absurdity, overblown theatrics, characters who are both omnipotent and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet, totally inappropriate-yet-completely-welcome humour, and this ever-present hint that they have some kind of thematic content hanging around there somewhere but is continually being suffocated by the ludicrousness of the rest of the show. A+++++ WOULD RECOMMEND. |

Everyone I've heard says it sucks? I was enjoying it, what with the whole subjugated former rocker with a family dynamic and the HARD ROCK SAVES THE SPACE thing. Kind of personal, really. |

I'd say call it "Pani Poni Dash 2" instead, except for the thread of deviant sexuality running through the whole thing. That just happens to be classic Akamatsu, of course. Shaft can sure make something that is fun to look at, though. |

This is kind of a show you watch when you flip past it on the television; but, since we're on the wrong side of the ocean, we have to make a very deliberate effort to watch it. I don't think it works that way. |
| Space Pirate Captain Harlock (TV) |
Very good |
Rarely delivers what you want to see (more Harlock,, more Tochiro backstory/hopefully an Emeraldas cameo, more Mime) and instead focuses on our headstrong young protagonist and/or whichever tragic hero of the week shows up, but hey, it's Harlock, and it's an enjoyable vintage show. |
| Star Blazers (TV) |

I might start on this again, maybe, if I get a bug up my ass about going through important anime again. So thoroughly outdone by its descendants as to be obnoxious, with all the typical Matsumoto cheese, and lacking either a larger-than-life character as Harlock or the humanity of Tetsuro and Maetel to hold it together |

The quality is shit, and it's kind of a lousy adaptation, but I'm in it until the end. |
