I’ve been Netflix-ing and sloooowly watching the anime Last Exile<\/cite> over the last few months, and finished it over the weekend. It’s all very pretty, but I really don’t understand what the hell happened at the very end. Some fun stuff along the way, though.<\/p>\n

This means that I have once again run out of Japanese cartoons to watch, and the mystery anime I was recommended in Japan are not available from Netflix at present. Which means I need new stuff to watch on Friday nights after happy hour, when network tv sucks.<\/p>\n

So, oh all-knowing Internet types, what should be on my Netflix queue? Serial format things are slightly preferable, as they require less of a committment, but movies are good, too.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to know what I’ve already seen, there’s a list here<\/a>, to which you can add:<\/p>\n

Trigun<\/cite><\/strong>: Great fun. Awfully slapstick-y in places, but a good overall plot, good characters, and nice visuals.<\/p>\n

Last Exile<\/cite><\/strong>: see above.<\/p>\n

Princess Tutu<\/cite><\/strong>: Not my thing, but Kate loved it.<\/p>\n

My Neighbor Totoro<\/cite><\/strong>: There are little Totoro dolls and figurines everywhere<\/strong> in Japan, so we figured we really needed to see what this was about. It’s basically a Japanese Disney movie, without the treacly musical numbers.<\/p>\n

I think that’s about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
