Slated to be the big anime of this year...

I marmalised the site with babelfish....I gather there is a certain philosophical element to it??

<big intake of breath between clenched teeth.>

The trailer looks ok.

I gather there are robots in it who look like humans, and some utopian elements...oh, and a murder investigation.

otherwise Im not sure.

But `Samaurai champloo ` got rave reviews...

Well, the art-style looks rather nifty. And it looks like the plot has promise.

Samurai Champloo got rave reviews? Blah. I never trust reviews, though. Just watch what piques my interest.

I can't believe that I can't watch any of the trailers but I need to know the plot. Just saying "robots and a murder investigation" to me doesn't mean much.

It just sounds something like any Japanese aime. Crying5

Anime News Network has a pretty good synopsis of it. Sounds pretty cool, if they avoid some cliches and whatnot.

Gah. I can't watch the previews either. I found a link that actually downloads stuff.

Unfortunately, my media player isn't able to find a codec to do the visuals, and the sound isn't a fat lot of good by itself.

The sub-story in that book (PK Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep) still freaks me out. (It's not in the BladeRunner movie.) The masses who watch a never-ending story of a guy walking deeper into a desert, and consider it almost a religion. Adds another layer to the book and a whole bunch more possible connections.
One of the unfortunately rare cases where movie better than the book. Then again, given that I still remember the book and how powerful it was, I guess it was very well written and I just didn't like it.

So the question is Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

No idea.

Never could get into his books. I have an interview with him. (from a SF seminar that for typical reasons he was unable to attend in person.) a truly, frighteningly weird person.

Well, I have finaly watched it.

its cliched but it has its moments.

I think it confirms to the anime ideal of farce and drama in equal measures.

Some eps are pure hillarity, but they explain the plot and are a serious part of the story.

I think I want to go to sea again....
