Grave of the Fireflies (1988) (Japanese)
Taking place toward the end of World War II in Japan, Grave of the Fireflies is the poignant tale of the relationship between two orphaned children, Seita and his younger sister Setsuko. The children lose their mother in the firebombing of Kobe, and their father in service to the Imperial Japanese Navy, and as a result they are forced to try to survive amidst widespread famine and the callous indifference of their countrymen (some of whom are their own extended family members). Some critics—most notably Roger Ebert—consider it to be one of the most powerful anti-war movies ever made.

Perfect Blue (Japan) (1998)
Viewer discretion advised!
A retired pop singer turned actress’s sense of reality is shaken when she is stalked by an obsessed fan and seemingly a ghost of her past.
Perfect Blue is a 1997 feature-length anime film, directed by Satoshi Kon (loosely based on the novel of the same name by Yoshikazu Takeuchi). The film is a psychological thriller about Mima Kirigoe, a member of a Japanese pop idol group called “CHAM!” who decides to become an actress. As her new career proceeds Mima’s world becomes increasingly reminiscent of the works of Alfred Hitchcock and Philip K. Dick; reality and fantasy spiral out of control as Mima discovers that a stalker is the least of her troubles.

Tales from Earthsea (2006) (Japanese)
Enter a dark, magical world of dragons and sorcery in Studio Ghibli’s blockbuster animated epic Tales from Earthsea. Adapted from Ursula K. Le Guin’s beloved children’s fantasy book series, Tales from Earthsea marks the phenomenal directorial debut of Miyazaki Goro, the son of the legendary Miyazaki Hayao. Complex and compelling, Tales from Earthsea presents a sweeping, fantastical story about a young prince’s journey through darkness and redemption.
A mysterious force is disturbing the natural balance in the land of Earthsea. Dragons are feuding, magic is dying, and the whole of humanity is falling into chaos. Haunted by inner demons, Prince Arren (voiced by Okada Junichi) stabs his father and runs away with the king’s sword. He finds friendship and protection with kind-hearted master wizard Ged and a strange young girl named Therru. A shadow, however, continues to haunt Arren, drawing him to the evil sorcerer Cob whose quest for immortality is destroying the balance between the realm of the living and dead. To save Earthsea, Arren must stop Cob, but he himself is falling into darkness.
More overtly dark in theme than previous Ghibli works, Tales from Earthsea is certainly equally amazing in terms of animation and design. Grand castles, medieval towns, stretching deserts, raging oceans, and idyllic countrysides vibrantly come alive on screen in rich strokes and seas of aqua and crimson. The release of a Studio Ghibli film is always a big event in Japan, and Tales of Earthsea was no exception. The film topped the box office for four weeks and earned over $60 million overall, proving that the apple does not fall far from the tree.

Aachi And Ssipak (Korean animated movie)
A top-tier technical achievement in 2-D animation, “Aachi & Ssipak” is torpedoed by a story requiring auds to watch exceedingly grotesque characters slug it out in a future world in which human feces is the currency. Seven years in the making before it tanked locally, this sporadically amusing item appears to have nowhere else to go beyond selected fests and limited ancillary markets.
Pic plays just about all its laugh-if-you-dare cards in the first few minutes. Setting is Shit City, which runs on excrement. Reward for productivity is an addictive hallucinogenic frozen treat that stimulates even greater bowel movements. Title duo are unappealing hoods who hook up with a porn star and fall foul of vicious outcasts known as the Diaper Gang. Story grows increasingly nasty amid the wholesale slaughter to gain control of the city. Frantically paced film is virtually nothing but spectacular set pieces, and does have some funny TV commercial inserts, but offers far too little to engage senses other than the visual. Outstanding tech package includes extraordinarily well-detailed backgrounds and a lively score alternating between hard rock and techno beats.
