so, recently, i've watched a couple of great animes. First one is Blue Submarine No. 6 (Ao No Roku-go) OVA series

This awesome looking 1998 anime produced by Gonzo and licensed by Bandai Visual. Based on manga with the same title by Satoru Ozawa.

The story set on near future when most of the earth surface is covered by water. The massive flood of apocalypse caused by a scientist Zorndyke who destroy the magnetic field of earth and causing the polar shift. He also created a new race, a hybrid of human and animal. The war between the human race and the new hybrid is inevitable. In order to fight Zorndyke, the human create the Blue Fleet, an international submarine fleet consist of advanced submarines from various countries like Japan, USA, France, China, and many more. The story focused on, of course, the Blue submarine no. 6 from Japan. The main protagonist character, Hayami Tetsu is an ex-Blue Fleet, court martialed for his reckless act that cause the 'death' of his partner. Another character is Kino Mayumi, a grampus (small, fast submarine) pilot who lost all of her family member when the big flood occur. Both must work together in unpleasant relationship. While Mayumi driven by hated and the will to take a revenge on Zorndyke, Hayami is looking for an answer, why Zorndyke destroy the earth? The story is cool, it's well directed and well designed. But because it only consisted of 4 episodes, there is no room to explain the other interesting characters.

The animation and characters design is awesome. This OVA series is a pioneering example of hybrid animation, combining 2d cartoon with 3d computer graphics. The result is spectacular, both 2d and 3d animation look very smooth, i really praise the watter and the explosion effects on this anime. After 12 years, i think it still gorgeously awesome. The characters design is great although there is slight change on some character design (especially Hayami) in every episode.

The sound is great, i really like the jazzy theme by The Thrill on this anime. It's so catchy and really bring the mood for the action scenes. The voice cast is doing a great job too.

I really recommended this anime to anyone who never see it. 9/10

Second one is The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (Toki o Kareru Shoujo)

this amazing 2006 sciene fiction/romance movie anime produced by Madhouse, Ocean Entertainment, and Bandai. Published by Kadokawa Herald Pictures and directed by Mamoru Hosoda. Inspired by 1967 novel with the same title by Yasutaka Tsutsui.

The story is about a high school girl, Konno Makoto. Makoto is an average girl, she's not smart, but not stupid enough to called dumb. She's not skilled, but not clumsy enough to called reckless. She have two close friends, Kousuke Tsuda and Chiaki Mamiya (both are boy) and a happy life. Until one day, on one unfortunate day, she' got hit by a train. But, she manage to survive by leaping time and go back before the accident happen. Makoto realize that she have the ability to leapt through time and start to use it for her own fun and to prevent unpleasant things that happens to her. Everything is become so mucheasier for her until she realize, that in every changes she made, there is consequences for it. The story is superbly awesome. It might bored the action junkies but the simplicity and the message its carry will make you think for a while. Just like the tagline of this movie, 'Time Waits For No One'

The animation and character design is great. Smooth and simple design with detailed background is the key.

The sound is pretty, Kiyoshi Yoshida did a very good job. Most of the scores are played by piano. It's so simple but it's really fit the movie. The theme song 'Garnet' by Oku Hanako is a pretty song love it so much.

Conclusion, this award-winning movie is absolutely great, i recommended it to every movie lovers out there 10/10

next, i'll watch Summer Wars and Evangelion 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. Thank you for reading and feel free to comment :D
