Howdy yall!

1) Gantz
2) The Fall
_______________________________________________________________________________________

Gantz (Gantsu)

Alright maybe Im just keen on the story or what but the anime Gantz is a total must see. The story begins with this perverted teenager(Kei) waiting for the subway. An old childhood friend happens to stand next to him. Now this childhood friend (I can't remember his name so save my life so were gonna call him pussface) Pussface is this goody goody 2 shoe kinda guy. This smelly old bum falls onto the train tacks and passes out and nobody is gonna help the poor sonofabitch. So pussface jumps onto the tracks and tries to lift this huge bum off the tracks. Pussface recognizes Kei and ask for help, Kei reluctantly agrees and both manage to get the bum offa the tracks. but suddenly the train starts coming and they have no time to scampper outta there, so they start running as fast as there little legs can carry them. When all of a sudden you see Kei's bloody dismembered head flying through the air, as some random chick (important) is taking a picture of his disembodied head.

it goes black and it fases back to this small apartment in tokyo where our two recently desised characters and a couple of other guys and a dog are sitting. There is no furniture, and you can't touch the walls or open any of the doors no matter how hard you try. There is a huge black sphere in the middle of the room. Everyone in the room had also died in one way or another so they presume its like a limbo type place. After a couple minutes of introducing themselves a naked girl kinda "beams" into the room. She had just tried to commit sucide in the bathtub, and she has huge boobs btw. This really big thug like guy drags her into the hallway when she comes to and tries to rape her. Pussface jumps in and saves the day yay. Kei also has a huge boner btw, which you find out through out the series that its not that uncommon.
Anywho the gigantic black sphere in the middle of the room starts singing and this message in backwards letters and things appears on screen
"your all dead you bastards, what you do with your new lives is entirely up to me, thats the theory anyway." the sphere then opens up and there are strange guns and suits for every person (yes includeing the dog) in the room, the troop later discovers that in the middle of this sphere is this naked dude on life support, whom which we presume is Gantz.
The screen like orb then shows this alien like target and tells them that they have to kill him, and its this cute looking green onion guy.
they get "beamed" to the outside world and almost imediently find this green onion dude. All the other guys start beating it up to the point where they kill it. Then this huge frankenstine like version of the same alien comes outta nowhere and starts killing everyone. Long story short they transport the alien to somewhere in the sky and Kei pussface, miss melons, butterdog, and bitchead(who had done this many times before) get beamed back to the apartment, where Gantz gives them their "Scores'.

Thats basically the begining of the series in a nut shell, seriously this anime was amazing. Its a little bit of a mindfuck at first but they end up explaining everything. There is lots of drama and romance, sex, blood, gore, and some downright awesome action! Seriously if you haven't seen it go get it, the music was great the animation was fantastic and the story was even better.
besides who can't love a robot/chicken/crack version of bruce lee? lol!

Score 9.3/10
-Great story
-great music
-sucky ending (spoilers sorry folks)
-sucky character work

The fall,

This isn't an anime movie but if you ever get the chance to see it, it is one of the most phenominal movies i have ever seen and downright one of my favorites.

The film was shot is 32 diffrent countries and the cinematography is absolutely stunning.

The movie takes place in about the 1920's era I'm presumeing. Its about this little girl who had broke her arm when she fell while picking oranges. She forced to stay in this catholic hospital and learns english. She roams the halls throwing oranges and the preist and stuff like that. She then comes across this man, who broke his back doing a stunt for a "moving picture". He is severely depressed because his fiance left him for his brother. He then sees the little girl and tells her a story so that she can get him more drugs so he can overdose. Well the story he tells is what you see in the little girls mind, and all the characters he introduces are people acctually in the hospital. The colors and textures and styles in this movie are amazing, and the little girl is so friggin' cute!

GO GET THIS MOVIE NOW!!! I MEAN IT!
The scenery is enough to take your breath away, and they added all these little things in it its like I discover something new everytime I watch it

Score 9.7/10
-amazing story
-amazing cinematography
-mediocre acting

"googly googly googly goo! and it will be gone"
