I need to add to my list The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Have to say that I was blown away by this little gem. I will also add Makoto Konno to my fav character list, as well. She's wonderful.

Paprika was weird and interesting, to say the least. I can't say that this is one of my favorites. Of the three Satoshi Kon anime I've seen (haven't seen Tokyo Godfathers yet), Millenium Actress is my favorite.

Girl who Leap Through Time is definitely a very good flick. Good call.

I watched Paprika, but I didn't really get into it all that much.

Thanks, Maltos.

I think I heard something about "Summer Wars." The style is definitely that of "Tokikake." Unfortunately, my Japanese is not so good, so I couldn't figure out the info that they were giving. Looks like it's worth waiting for. Maybe because of the success(?) of Tokikake, Summer Wars will get a quick release date in the US.

A bit of info for you;

My top five all time favourite anime:

1. Neon Genesis Evangelion
2. 5 centimeters per second
3. Voices of a distant Star
4. Beyond the Clouds
5. Shingetsutan Tsukihime

There is also Guardian of the Sacred Spirit, which shares the top five as well, even though it would be the sixth title XD.

I think this is the first time I've ever seen someone mention Tsukihime, let alone including it in their top list of anime.

Great thriller. Great music. I recommend it to all.
