It was amazing and I am hooked on anime ever since!

Of course it was an excellent film, very different from Ghibli with a graphic violence that all Ghibli’s films (with the possible exception of Mononoke) do not indulge in, but it worked and wasn’t gratuitous as it was never at the expense of the story and the characters, both of which were great.

I mean, look how good it would turn out:

From now on, we should just skip making the original versions of anything and go straight to the adaptation version.
