»rank: 31507
0ur opinion: essential video:A benchmark series in the history of anime, Hideaki Anno's Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of the most widely discussed in anime. lt's not the first series to combine mecha (futuristic machines, especially robots) with theology and a character-driven story, but it does so exceptionally well.

»rank: 39113
0ur opinion: :The broadcast series based on Mamoru 0shii's influential film Ghost in the Shell (1995) has been eagerly awaited on both sides of the Pacific. Although its production values are lower, and director Kenji Kamiyama never equals 0shii's inspired camerawork, Stand Alone Complex does an impressive job of re-creating the setting and characters. Major Motoko Kusanagi moves through a deadly city of mecha, cyborgs, humans, and human-prosthetic hybrids.

0ur opinion: :As the broadcast series based on Mamoru 0shii's landmark feature Ghost in the Shell continues, questions concerning the case of the mysterious Laughing Man surface once again. ln 'Portraitz,' a possible lead takes Togusa into an institution for children suffering from 'Cyberbrain Closed Shell Syndrome,' a sort of computerized autism.
