I just finished watching an anime over the weekend called, Karin (かりん). It was really one of the most amusing animé stories I have seen so far. Most of the cast of characters are pretty quirky and crazy, in particular, Winner Sinclair, the exchange student-cum-vampire hunter. Karin is a high school student who also happens to be a vampire… Not your average blood-sucking one, but a blood producing vampire… As such, she needs to bite people to get rid of her excess blood.

Ghost in the Shell (1996) (Japanese title: Kôkaku kidôtai), based on Masamune Shirow’s manga, was beautifully executed and I watched it again this week in anticipation of watching Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) (Japanese title: Inosensu: Kôkaku kidôtai). Almost ten years later, Mamoru Oshii still excutes an beautifully stunning anime, taking full advantage of the more recent advancements in CGI animation.
