Soup /b/

I've recently watched my first anime film 'Akira', and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. The whole time it reminded me of Final Fantasy VII, I had no idea there was anything more to anime than weeaboos. I've also recently watched Princess Mononoke, which I had watched many years ago in my childhood, and had forgotten about until 3/4 of the way through the movie.

I'm considering watching 'Spirited Away', but I have no idea if this movie will be as epic as the aforementioned films, or totally gay.
Can /b/ verify if this film is good/bad, or recommend any other sweet fucking animes.

inb4 OP is a fag/weeaboo; OP IS and always will be every derogatory thing you could possibly call him.

Also I'm not fucking going to /a/ for this.

Spirited Away really is amazing, so is Princess Mononoke. For the most part, all Ghibli films are incredible with some exceptions like Ponyo and The Cat Returns as well as a few others. I also advise you see the Ninja Scroll movie, shit is amazing.

Anonymous 05/28/10(Fri)01:47:17 No.232749XXX

indeed, OP, watch Spirited Away
has to be one of the best anime movies I've ever seen
Miyazaki is amazing, and I can't recall a single movie that he's put out that I haven't liked

Perfect Blue is worth watching. Tokyo Godfathers by the same guy is funny, but avoid Millenium Actress, it got a bunch of awards but sucked.

Howl's Moving Castle was visually beautifully and pretty touching but lacked substance in comparison to Miyazaki's other work.

Gotta agree with you there. The characters were MUCH better in the book. And I did really enjoy the movie but after reading the book, I didn't enjoy it nearly as much.

Series is okay, but at its core, tends to go Voltron on ya (what's the Ro-beast gonna look like this week?)

But the movie... By the gods. Just, awsome.

Also, if you can, watch it again with the English Director Sound Track. They have a Joseph Campbell'esque expert on religious symbolism trying to explain sh*t while the hyper engish voice actress makes fun of him. It's great. Get lines like:
