Any anime dorks around here want to recommend me some really really warped shit?
 

I was never really a big anime fan, but I've watched the odd one here and there. Ghost in the Shell, Armitage, that sort of thing. Seen a few others in the past. I just recently watched Paprika, which was kind of like Alice in Wonderland on way too much acid, but was a great watch. So I went on a little search lately for the weirdest shit I can find. Watched Dead Leaves, Serial Experiments Lain, and Tamala 2010 Punk Cat In Space. But I am searching for he absolute most twisted fucked up weird ass violent shit Japan can offer me here. I know they've got it in them. Any recommendations?

Tom n Jerry...

you will like Gungrave (just start watching from Episode 2, because Episode 1 contains spoilers from the ending)

"Gantz" is pretty warped.
"Berserk" too.

Will check them out. If you haven't seen Dead Leaves, give it a go... :thumbsup

shocking imagery itself just isn't enough. i love the fact that a full length feature film or a series, can expand upon a really twisted mindfuck of a story. japs are pros at coming up with batshit crazy storylines...

I have a hard time reading anything you post now because my eyes are distracted by Snooki getting rocked in the jaw.

you're probably not missing much

Grave of the Fireflies will make you cry.

That plot just sounds depressing. I'm looking for giant robot laser fights, mass slaughter, and tentacle rape ...

If you're looking for drug induced shit check out FLCL.

Also Panty and Stocking is fun... made by the Dead Leaves people.

I know of tons more but I'm bad at remembering japanese words.

Ya, had a hard time finding a download for FLCL, but it does sound like a trip. A trip with an overly abundant amount of boobs in it... :1orglaugh

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt was another I'd actually seen a review for on some site, but I never looked too deep into it because it just sounded like some Hentai shit. Maybe I'll give it another chance, didn't realize it was by the Dead Leaves people. Dead Leaves was awesome. :thumbsup

Last episode of Space Runaway Ideon is a classic violent episode where they killed off every character. You can find that on YouTube.

Elfen Lied combines the kawaii (cute) and the gore and actually has a good story. The first 15 minutes is amazing stuff. Ninja Scroll, the original movie is pretty sick, perverted with great action.

Others to take a look at: Berserk, Hellsing, Ninja Resurrection, Evangelion (Death and Rebirth).

Is that the one where the essentially ended the series by making the final episode so overly violent and sexed up, that it couldn't even be aired on tv? I was reading some top 10 list of weird animes and I can't remember the name now, but supposedly there was some series and that's how they decided to end, by going so over the top that the television wouldn't even air them anymore. That's one I could go for tracking down... :1orglaugh

Hellsing Ultimate Ova
Samurai Champloo
Beserk
GunXSword (same creator is Champloo)

So many that I've forgotten that's for sure...

:Oh crap

Kite is pretty twisted.



FLCL is great to watch stoned.

Space Runaway Ideon was not well received when it came out. It was not a good series at all. So when the decision came to cancel it, the creators decided to kill everyone off. A lot of the characters, especially the children died gruesome deaths. Watch for the decapitation. The ending also showed all of the characters as flying naked ghosts in space and that sequence was edited out.

-Battle Angel Alita

-Mad Bull

-Spirited away (xtremely great)

-princess mononoke

-Paprika

-Fist of the north star (Hokuto no Ken)

Ya, Paprika was really something else. Downloaded it on a whim whil going through some "mindfuck" movie lists, and was really impressed. Trippy shit. I'm downloading Millenium Actress now, hope it's as good. The story was really good. Dead leaves i didn't even know what was going on, but I was sold on the absolute insanity. Mutant drill dicks, non-stop mutilation and gore, and some sort of immediate conception of a part robot baby that springs fromt he vagina guns in hand, then ages super fast and blows up a giant caterpillar, so they can escape a moon prison? Wut? :1orglaugh

lol yes , scary stuff... how about the others i mentioned? tried some? they're not all trippy if you wnat tripppy stuff then princess mononoke, paprika and spirited away. if you like violent stuff then try hokuto no ken or ichi the killer (anime or the live version)

Didn't realize there was an animated version of Ichi the Killer. Might have to track that down too. I've been into the whole J-Horror genre for a while, just never dived too deep into the anime stuff.

I haven't seen anything else in your list, but I'll check them out. Finally found a decent download for FLCL, gonna go watch a couple episodes right now and see how that goes...

lol i was watching the wig movie, that one was more hilarious rather than scary... what do you recommend? forget the classics like ringu, grudge or whatever remade by americans

The obvious first recommendation is Battle Royale, but that's like the first one everyone goes too. 1-Ichi, which is kind of a prequil to Ichi the Killer, explaining how Ichi becomes the killer.Some others I really like The Neighbor #13, Visitor Q, Audition (Really creepy shit), Gozu, Old Boy (Not actually Japanese, but definitely worth watching), Suicide Circle, Noriko's Dinner Table, Tokyo Gore Police, Meatball Machine, The Machine Girl, Assault Girls...

Those are a few that pop off the top of my head, I'm sure I'm missing quite a few yet...

downloaded audition man... SICK FCKN MOVIE!!!

If you love the cheeseball shit, don't miss out on Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl :thumbsup

This is a great anime thread. Some mentioned on here never heard of.

Serial Expirements Lain is actually pretty cool with the whole idea of people killing themselves to shed their bodies and sink their consciousness into the internet. I've only watched a couple episodes, and it starts off a little slow, but it's developing into something pretty strange...

just go here and have fun http://www.animefreak.tv

also check out any of the la blue girl movies

Nice. I like to stream to my xbox though, so I'll probably just torrent the shit I find there, but sweet selection. Still trying to work out all the right codecs and shit for transcoding the video. I got it streaming with soft subtitles properly now, but still can't stream .mkv right. Which is a problem, being as all these animefags insist on ripping everything to mkv...

Side not: Holy shit fuck, Highschool of the Dead sounds awesome... :thumbsup

Paprica, memorizu, planet blue, millenium actress are just a few good ones on top of my head.

After I watched Paprika I read some reviews and rushed to download Millenium ACtress because everyone seems to think it was better. Haven't watched it yet, but I'll get around to it.

high school of the dead is one of the best animes ever made..i shit you not. Every episode is action packed,the storylines are tightly weaved and the animation is top notch. The manga is of course further along but definitely check it out...among my top 5 of all time

and i also forgot to suggest Ninja Scroll!

Also, Elfen lied.

Anyone recommend a place that sells them, English dubs/subs over the org cut, new?

Most of what I find here, or even on Amazon is the English cut. I would like to get the raw, Japan cut, dubs over it, and new... and the few sites I have found with them, wont let me bill with a U.S. card or they wont ship here.

What in the fuck am I watching here? :1orglaugh

10 second sin I feel like I'm watching the fucking Power Puff Girls, then suddenly it goes somewhere way way different, lol. Way different. This shit's just so ridiculous I don't even know if I've made my mind up on it good/bad yet... :1orglaugh

I started watching Freezing, which has been awesome so far. I'm just curious as to why anytime a fight breaks out, the ultimate asskicking result always seems to be the baring of one's titties. "Oh, let's fight!"... "Ok, I'm going to kick your ass and rip your tits out... Ah yes, that'll show you". If anime has taught me anything over the last few days, it's that every 16 year old Japanese girl has double D or larger tits, and that they almost never stay covered for long... :1orglaugh

They really try as hard as they can to be porn, without actually being porn, lol

If this doesn't convince you that Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan is worth giving a chance, I don't know what will... :1orglaugh

I've gone through quite a few of the recommendations so far, but this has by far been the most warped yet. It doesn't even hit you just how fucked it really is until the last 2-3 episodes of the series. The story is very very good. It damn near squeezed tears. The English dubbing was kind of crap, but the story was enough to overlook it after a while.

No to sure sure the cute comes into play. Well, I guess a little bit with Nyu, but that was pretty minimal. If I had to pick something as a perfect balance of cute and gore, I'd say Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan nailed that, in a lighthearted fun kind of cute gorey way, lol......
