There are great anime movies and shows found throughout many decades now, because Japan has seemingly always been a great place to look for bold and unique pieces of animation. Given the 2000s are now pretty far back in the past – well, 15 to 25-ish years – it’s perhaps as good a time as any to look back on the best such a decade had to offer. After all, some works created in the 2000s are easily old enough to be nostalgic, now.
This puts her on course with the titular Wizard, Howl, and his moving castle. It’s got all the reliable Miyazaki trademarks and the kind of stunning animation one can expect from Studio Ghibli. Its characters are endearing, the simple story is told effectively, and, at the end of the day, it’s hard to pass up another chance to get lost in a world created by Hayao Miyazaki.
Vampire Hunter D Not RatedAnimationFantasyHorrorAction D has been hired to track down Meier Link, a notoriously powerful vampire who has abducted a woman, Charlotte Elbourne. D’s orders are strict - find Charlotte, at any cost. For the first time, D faces serious competition. The Markus Brothers, a family of Vampire Hunters, were hired for the same bounty. D Must intercept Meier and conquer hostile forces on all sides in a deadly race against time.
The second film in that series, Evangelion: 2.0 You Can Advance, does a great job at making events first seen in the show look all the more epic and visually spectacular, all the while making some interesting and unexpected changes. It takes until the next two movies for the latter to completely pay off, but, in hindsight, it’s easy to appreciate this piece of the Rebuild of Evangelion series as a vital one.
It's a movie where the style is so strong that substance isn't really needed. It’s a movie that’s all about adrenaline and stands, seemingly solely, to knock the socks off anyone who wants to watch it. Redline never seemed to find much of an audience back when it was first released, but it deserves recognition now, and will hopefully continue gaining popularity, owing to it being one of the most impressive animated movies of the 21st century so far.
