  • Genesis of Aquarion: Wings of Genesis

    This movie is an alternative version of the TV series; it is composed of the two 2007 OVAs, edited to improve the pacing of the plot, and an extra segment akin to a TV episode where the cast are given the task of studying flowers. The plot has several differences to the TV series, most important being Sirius’s death at the beginning, Apollo’s different childhood and the more marked focus on the events of 12000 years ago, particularly Apollonius’ death and Reika’s previous incarnation’s involvement.

  • JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood

    An adaptation of the original five volume arc of the popular JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure manga, covering the Phantom Blood chapters. Jonathan Joestar is an aristocratic boy whose life is suddenly turned upside down by a mysterious new boy who arrives, Dio Brando. Dio has a connection to his father, and over time, a rivalry forms as Dio becomes obsessed with a mysterious, ancient, and mystical stone mask that Jonathan’s father keeps. This film has not been publicly released outside of its original limited run in Japanese theaters and is considered virtually lost.

  • Shakugan no Shana: The Movie

    The movie is more or less a retelling of the first few episodes of the series that is not much more than a slightly padded director’s cut. You do learn some interesting details such as where Yugi’s dad is, a look at the flame haze who was in the city before Shana, and even a couple of new powers for the Reiji Maigo. The story is certainly fleshed out quite a bit more and the final 15 minutes of the film comprise a surprisingly powerful conclusion (worth the price of admission on its own), but I would have liked a more original story rather then a highly polished version of one that I’ve already enjoyed. In the end, spectacular visuals, great new music, and well thought out additions to the core story leave you feeling glad to have seen the film. On the other hand, the fact that anything new that was added obviously doesn’t change the events that come later in the series means that established fans will likely leave the experience less than satisfied.
