I haven't made much effort to keep up with anime in years. If we go back to classics, I highly recommend Slayers.

A huge THANK YOU!!!! For FINALLY selling the Meteor Survivor Polo on the store. AND a huge thanks to my friend who bought it for me while he was at Fan Fest!!! YES I finally have my POLO!!!





The last newish anime that I watched was Goblinslayer, and honestly, it did not disappoint. 91 Days not long before that. I guess I really actually enjoyed the drama in 91 Days.
As far as classics go, and as far as all anime goes, my favorite anime is still Samurai Champloo. Particularly the episodes featuring Sarah, the blind songstress assassin.
"Why'd you stop?! Why'd you pull back, you know you had me COLD!"
Spoilers for Mugen/Sara fight
It's probably one of the most talked about scenes, but also one of the most misunderstood. When Mugen takes off his geta, and swings at Sarah from behind, she actually only barely manages to dodge it. Unlike all of her dodges in their fights and Jin's fight previously, it is a dodge that lacks grace. Then, her weapon will reach Mugen first, both because Mugen spun around such was the force of his first swing, and also because of the length and pivot point of Sarah's cross spear. She stops it though, because she realizes that even though she will hit Mugen first, it will not stop the momentum of his swing, and they will both die, so she expresses her love for Mugen and stops the swing, dishonoring him to fulfill her desire for him to live. She dies, and most people think she let Mugen win, but the truth is that she let Mugen live. Even if she hadn't, she would have still died. He did win, but at a cost.
(Signature portrait by Amaipetisu)
"I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip." - Rabindranath Tagore
91 Days was really good. It's one of the best pieces of animated storytelling I've seen in a while. You should try Joker Game, it's got the same level of story telling and drama.
I see you are a person of (proto)culture.
