Wow. When I first saw this anime I wasn't sure what I just watched all I knew is that something like this will not happen again very soon in anime world. Sometimes you just make something for your own well being and for your own soul. It is ones view on religion and his relation with it. To me that is the most accurate description of this anime. Naturally the screenwriter never made any public explanations of this anime. Written by Mamoru Oshii and coupled with Yoshitaka Amanos superb animation and amazing architecture and background drawings this little deviant child that was made in 1985 is perhaps my most favorite anime of all times along with Cowboy Bebop.
Just like the anime the soundtrack is also amazingly done. It sounds like a huge mechanical god that screams in orchestral and choir music. Chilling and eerie which fits perfectly with the scenery of the anime. It sounds so surreal that it feels like a dream, especially when you listen it at night, like myself. :D Therefore I offer you to listen this wondrous sounds of somehow sad beauty. Perhaps you'll like it as much as I do.

ReplyDeleteOoo... I remember rather enjoying the soundtrack. I should watch it again sometime, because only after I watched it did I try scrounging the internets for any type of explanation as to what I had just watched. I really wish someone would come out with something similar to it, but that most likely wouldn't happen in this day in age.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, thank you for the soundtrack. :)
