    Some of you know me well enough to know that i wouldn't let 420 members slip by without planning a special screening. I wanna get some suggestions on the weirdest anime movies, short series (6 episodes max) or OVA you've watched or heard of. Something trippy, random or off the wall like FLCL or Dead Leaves (but not Dead Leaves because we've already watched that). We'll take suggestions for awhile and then we'll move the best candidates over to voting.

    @Supernatural-Knight I remember you suggesting something in Skype. I can't seem to locate it at the moment so would you mind posting your suggestions in here as well?

    Yeah no worries, although after reading short series that eliminated the 2 series [only one of which I would of really recommended for a trip] but I'll just post them all again anyway.
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/16149/Kick-Heart   12 min short
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/17151/Mogu_Mogu    4 min music vid, one of the weirder ones I've watched.
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/2246/Mononoke    12 ep series that is a bit too serious for a trippy ride, although the animation definitely works for it
    http://myanimelist.net/anime/6774/Kuuchuu_Buranko   11 ep series that is serious but I would still say to check it out, repeating the same days, people turning into animals, psychedelic colours, odd animation the show is great.
    examples

    Its kind of hard because after FLCL most of the ones suitable for this kind of event are music videos that are officially anime, and the ones that aren't are kind of too psychological for it to match this theme. I've watched a lot of shit but even I'm struggling with this.
    I guess any of this guy's work could also count, but once again they are music video kind of things

    Sweet, thanks. I probably won't do this little event until next month, since our December schedule is so busy. But if nobody suggests anything we'll just vote on FLCL and your 4 suggestions.

    Gonna have to go with FLCL in order to have something short enough to be viewed in one sitting and long enough than a music video.

    Plenty. I watched only the first episode and it felt like my brain was raped. It just didn't make any sense at all and i didn't understand anything. Couldn't get myself to watch the other 5 eps so i stopped. Maybe if i'm forced to watch em all like i will be now it will be different. Who knows. And like i said, alcohol will do me good.

    What do you expect? Gotta have silly reasons to dislike a silly show.

    Popularity on MAL: #53. You seem to fall into a minority that dislikes it.
