Oppenheimer “Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. For this he was chained to a rock and tortured for all eternity” (opening sentence of the film) Science and its development is what indebted humanity and enabled it to progress and initiate revolutions of smaller or larger scales. Scientists have always…
John Wick 4 “Friendship means little when it’s convenient” – Shimazu (John Wick 4) Wow, we’ve reached “John Wick 4″… someone might think “now it can only recycle old material, can’t be better than previous parts.” It turned out it can. “John Wick 4” is the best part so far! 🙂 Brother…
Rurouni Kenshin Sanosuke Sagara (Zanza): [about Kenshin] “Give him a sword and he’s unstoppable, but give him a bail of rice and he’s just an ordinary guy.” I adore “Rurouni Kenshin” (Americanized as “Samurai X”). For me this is not only one of the best anime titles, but also a series in general. Of course,…
Neon Genesis Evangelion “If Neon Genesis Evangelion were a person, I would need serious professional help after working with them” – Sigmund Freud (Viennese neurologist, considered the father of modern psychotherapy) Saying that “Neon Genesis Evangelion” is a serious mindfuck wouldn’t be an exaggeration. Although the series came out almost 28 years ago, this…
The Archer “The way of the bow is the way of joy and excitement, perfection and mistakes, technique and instinct. But you will only discover this if you continue to shoot your arrows.” – Tetsuya (“The Archer”) You yourselves know what the situation is when it comes to Paulo Coelho… the man simply put…
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time For a large number of people, “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” (jpn. “Toki o Kakeru Shōjo”) is probably associated with the animated film from 2006, which won audience sympathy. However, this title reaches far back into the past. “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” was originally published in…
Cyberpunk Edgerunners “Cyberpunk Edgerunners” (at least I had that impression) just suddenly appeared on Netflix. If there was any hype around its announcement, I missed it. However, this isn’t bad news. Just as it unexpectedly appeared, it also (somewhat unexpectedly) won the sympathy of audiences and film critics. The series is set in the world…
Samurai Champloo Simply, there are some series creators who are auteurs in the true sense of the word. They know how to make a good thing and that’s that. Shinichirō Watanabe is one of those people. If he wants to make a good anime, he has things he won’t give up on. It must deal…
No Longer Human If you thought only Russian, English, and (occasional) French classics could delve into the theme of human soul despair, just wait until you see what Osamu Dazai and his “No Longer Human” will do to you in less than 120 pages! What all can fit on 120 pages? Well, let’s say, the…
Cowboy Bebop (Netflix) This might sound like a cliché, but I had a feeling that “Cowboy Bebop Netflix” (let’s christen the 2021 Netflix version this way) wouldn’t be a faithful adaptation of the original legendary 1998 anime series of the same name. Maybe because I was influenced by the film (trilogy/pentalogy) adaptation of the equally…
