Imagine, that you are 13, and wana be an animator when you grow up. Then watch as your dreams are dashed by a bunch of spaztic loosers, and an alien, but even after all that, it all goes back to Loui. Had a very FLCL feel to it.

	The Complete Shamanic Princess (2000)			Not Rated
It was very good, and very pretty, but I almost wish they had made 4 DVDs instead of one. It was just...too long. Other than that, it's really awesome past the 4th eppisode.
	.hack//SIGN Ver. 01: Login (2003)			Not Rated
They should make a website like this. I'd run around and annoy everyone. Then I'd eat virtual chocolate, go back to the real world and eat real celery. Hooray for virtual calories! Just a touch too slow
	Magic User's Club OVA Vol. 1: I'll Follow You! (1995)			Not Rated
OK...henti witches that read hebrew and have a misterios conection to an evil alien cylender that took over the world? I'm sure it'll fit right in here.

This disturbing film will be nestled in my heart right next to the rocky horror picture show and hamtaro's first trip "hello kitty on acid"
