Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise

Starring: Leo Morimoto, Mitsuki Yayoi, Aya Murata, Kazuyuki Sogabe, Minoru Uchida

“One of the most ambitious of all anime productions, a visually sensational two-hour extravaganza…” – Roger Ebert
 –
In a world eerily similar to our own, war between the Kingdom of Honneamise and its archrival, The Republic, seems inevitable. But even as the two nations’ rapidly evolving technology creates new ways to wage greater and more deadly forms of warfare, a small group seeks to use those same advances to propel mankind forward into the future and into space in their world’s first manned spaceflight program.

FLCL

Starring: Jun Mizuki, Mayumi Shintani, Izumi Kasagi, Suzuki Matsuo, Kôji Ohkura

Naota Nandaba is an ordinary sixth grader living in a city where nothing amazing ever seems to happen. After his brother Tasuku leaves town to play baseball in America, Naota takes it upon himself to look after everything Tasuku left behind—from his top bunk bed to his ex-girlfriend Mamimi Samejima, who hasn’t stopped clinging to Naota since Tasuku left.

Little does Naota know, however, that his mundane existence is on the verge of being changed forever: enter Haruko Haruhara, a Vespa-riding, bass guitar-wielding, pink-haired psychopath whose first encounter with Naota leaves him with tire tracks on his back and a giant horn on his head. Though all he wants is some peace and quiet, when Haruko takes up residence at his parents’ home, Naota finds himself dragged into the heart of the greatest battle for supremacy that Earth—and quite possibly the entire universe—has ever seen.

Adolescence of Utena

Starring: Tomoko Kawakami, Yuriko Fuchizaki, Takehito Koyasu, Kumiko Nishihara

“The queer as hell psychedelic anime you need to see.” – Dazed

When a dapper young woman named Utena Tenjo enrolls in the sprawling, psychedelic, rose strewn campus of Ohitori Academy, she quickly finds herself caught up in a series of duels with the Student Council to win the hand of the “Rose Bride,” a mysterious, olive-toned princess who possesses the power to revolutionize the world. Whatever that means… something to do with turning into a car, I think.

For what famed oddball Kunihiko Ikuhara’s adaptation of Chiho Saito’s manga Revolutionary Girl Utena lacks in coherence, it makes up for in strides with lush visuals; striking, peculiar design; and a taste for subverting norms in regards to romance, gender, and narrative.

Stalker

Starring: Alisa Freyndlikh, Aleksandr Kaydanovskiy, Anatoliy Solonitsyn

In a small, unnamed country, there is an area called the Zone. It contains the Room, where in it is believed wishes are granted. The government has declared The Zone off limits and has sealed off the area with barbed wire and guards. But this does not stop people from attempting to enter the Zone. A writer, who wants to use the experience as inspiration for his writing, and a professor, who wants to research the Zone for scientific purposes enter the Zone with their guide, the Stalker.
