I would have liked to see Patlabor (either the first movie or the ova) on more of the lists. The second movie may have been released in the 90s but the plot was very similar to episodes 5-6 of the OVA. And Oshii directed or produced both.

Yeah, I don't get why people might criticize the second film for going too far away from action when it mirrors those episodes exactly. Really the movie feels more like if Oshii too that concept and expanded it into 110 minute film, many of the same concepts and themes show up, as well as actions taken by characters. Both films are a natural progression from the OVA. |

You know, a list of the shows mentioned would be very useful. I head of a show I might be interested in, but I forgot what it was called.

That's what some people did want and got out of this exercise. Unfortunately, that doesn't make people angry or insecure, so fewer people are likely to share that reaction than are those who identify so strongly with what entertains them that they need to condemn and delegitimze anybody who threatens that sense of identity by not validating it. |

Darn you Tim Eldred for listing a whole bunch of shows I haven't even heard of and now am watching. I have to say, I'm a big fan of VOTOMS, and for some reason thought it was the only thing Takahashi did that was worth note. Now I've got Galient and Dougram. (Granted I forgot that you didn't give Dougram a glowing review, but I'm enjoying it so far. Then again I'm probably one of the few people who liked Gasaraki, even if it was a mess.)
Anyways, thanks for the show, and I'm looking forward to the 90s show, and discovering some more new stuff. (Well at least new to me.) As far as the sexism in DYRL, I wonder if it's like the sexism in James Bond movies. It's there, and definitely not cool, but it's a product of its time and place. |
