Now before we get into this I just want to take the time to say this is my first review so have mercy. Now if your wondering "Yo what's up with this Nihon Animator Mihonichi?" Well look no further as I'm hear to give you a general idea of what this collection of short films has to offer. Story: Let us begin with the stories of Nihon Animator, I feel that there is a special short film waiting for everyone in this collection. There is a huge variety of types of stories that are told here, some are just little fun shorts to watch while others have adeeper meaning. Some are happy and others are sad, some are simple and others make you think. I believe this is the best feature in this collection because you can connect to a bigger audience. There might be some short films that are not for you in this collection, there will be some shorts that just end without an explanation but this also makes you think harder about the film which is what I think they want you to do. I don't want to talk about any of the films, because first of spoilers and second off its interesting going into this with no clue what you are going to get. (Nihon Animator is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get.) So I will just let you experience the shorts for yourself. Art: The art of this collection is exactly how I explained the stories. Each short film has its own unique art style put into it. It really comes down to the watcher's opinion on art whether they think it is good or bad. I think this also adds to the feeling the short film gives off, so it makes the experience all the much more unique. Sound: I think the music will have a strong impact on the viewer because most of it captures the feeling of the short film its in. Also the voice acting was good so thats always a plus. My Thoughts: There were some shorts that I didn't care for but I understand that they were not meant for me so I didn't judge them too hard. Some of the music in this collection is AMAZING! *cough* ME!ME!ME! *cough* Girl *cough* There are alot of beautiful visuals in this collection. After finishing all of these short films it feels as if I've been on a journey. I had so many feelings felt when watching all these short films: happy, sad, confused, relaxed, and weirded out at some points but I'm glad that I watched all of Nihon Animator Mihonichi and I hope you feel the same way by the time you finish it.

Sex & Violence with Machspeed One-Shot Review : What happens when you smash the urban vulgarity of Ralph Bakshi with the lightspeed sledgehammer of Studio Trigger, the people behind cult anime classics like Kill la Kill and Inferno Cop? Digging the Suburban escapade from across the city outskirts, Ever wondered what it's like on living in a monstrosity filled with crime syndicates that purges destruction? It almost transcends the body of humanly extinct by forming into lifeforms and once regain a new catalyst to be awaken. You’ll find your answer in the toughest streets even Martin Scorsese would be afraid to walk down, where the detective agencyof the hot headed shark Machspeed, talking blow up girl Sex, and an ape called Violence that is the definition of what it means to have a stick up your rear happened to slime its way into. Being two of the main characters are literally named Sex and Violence, you should be warned well enough of the content in Imaishi’s short film. While the events in Machspeed are extremely crude, it’s always done with strong comedic timing and style. It’s also geniusly animated like Trigger’s more well known productions, where every line of dialog, character movement, and even backdrop gels in the beat of the film. I can’t stress enough how much I love the way the Trigger team makes their animation work, it’s like listening to a beautiful, complicated Jazz number. There are so many notes you can barely keep them straight, but they flow so well the mountains of music jargon melt into pure listening pleasure. Stepping the boundary to happen, Casually attaining the insanity and each bizarre craze, Intends us to leave a huge mark without a tone. Themes can be varied in a thematic concept of such memoir abstract detail through storytelling. Visuals are hard to follow, it grasp a deniable tacky turn from every satirical mind titilating scenarios. Invoking the drastic unraveling catastrophic messed up routine can keeps you the very hype-turn the back of the seat. Fumbled, nauseating.. and so far confusing? Exactly, While depicting a trigger lore series, each shows can be classy and stylish. Unless, the cinematography suits to be pack of clashing graffiti feast. Considered as a low-key bamboozled zany type with artsy cookie cutter flaws. Can also be viewed in a eerie unpleasant schlock mundane between meth and cocaine, since apart of that seizure it ain't rough to a slew of crass gags that made up so sketchy since it never comes off as cheap or off putting like a lot of American adult cartoons, it’s deliciously grotesque in a way you can’t keep your eyes off it.
