On the Eighth Day, God Created Anime

Anime has evolved from the unique Japanese culture, and because of its authentic Japanese attributes, it is becoming an essential art form for the twenty-first century. I believe it will ultimately take a place in the canon of World Literature in all its forms. The utopian vision that seems to be a fundamental thread in the greatest of anime works acts as the dynamic for this extraordinary literary and film phenomenon. I am researching many different genres and subgenres of anime, and I am hoping to create a channel here that demonstrates the finest in anime history. I hope to show the common thread that runs through these anime, and that it founds the art form as one of the most dynamic critical thinking resources for thinkers around the world. IF you have suggestions about influential anime series or films, please feel free to make a suggestion.

Howl's Moving Castle is not a howl in any sense of the word, so the title including the word in it, helps to create the contradictions that the anime wants its audience to notice in its thematic evolutions. I love this anime, as it is one of the masterpieces of the Scifi/Fantasy genres that is fast becoming one of the most significant literary elements of the twenty-first century. I've included this little musical notation because sound is so important in the anime. The audio aspect of this story seems as deeply embedded into the themes that come bubbling up from the story as do the characters themselves.
