Yep, both of them do give off some creepy, paedo vibes.
Off the top of my head:
Suspected that something was seriously wrong! That blunder did make me remember Noein at #100, haven't thought of that one in nearly ten years, one of the first animes I saw, don't even remember if I thought it was good or not but probably not since I completely forgot about it's existence.

PS: Kinda hard to recommend movies without knowing what you've already seen.
Been meaning to watch Wolf's Rain for a while now. Started once - sometime in the mid 2000s, but the pacing and cohesion seemed a bit 'off' (for lack of a better term) - in that it was ponderous and abstract (not in a good way). Couldn't really get into it and dropped the thing at maybe 2 episodes in (when that mask dude made an appearance), but I'll give it another try since you rec. it. Plus, I was in my instant gratification mecha/ action anime phase back then (Gundam, Old Yamato, Fafner, Area 88), so maybe that's why I skipped it in a hurry.
Yeah, it takes a few episodes before it really starts off. Yoko Kanno's soundtrack is one of my favourites.Been meaning to watch Wolf's Rain for a while now.

Ghost in the Shell
Anything by Satoshi Kon or Mamoru Oshii (lots of these mentioned in the previous post - Paprika, Ghost in the Shell, Perfect Blue etc - and anything by Mamoru Hosoda - The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Summer Wars in particular.
Amazing isn't it, loved the soundtrack as well.
You should definitely check out the manga if you have some time to spare. It's really, really long; and has been on an irregular schedule for the past decade (started way back in the '80s), but once you get past the initial chapters (which are kinda labored) to the Golden Age arc - it's one of the finest works of fiction across all mediums. Miura's masterpiece - great story, vivid details, deliciously brutal (moreso than the anime), and emotionally impactful.

PS: You might have to wait for closure as far as the manga and Guts are concerned. Still ongoing.
As far as I know, it's a continuation.
Cheers. Yeah the 3D stuff sucks but the second trailer is a massive improvement on the first for me. From Reddit (left is the first, right is the second):
Looks better indeed, but the 5th picture looks horrible, that nose!Cheers. Yeah the 3D stuff sucks but the second trailer is a massive improvement on the first for me. From Reddit (left is the first, right is the second):
Put this on hold a while ago, really need to get back to it. Think I was about 6 eps in.
It picked up the pace after about 10 episodes or so.
Guess it's worth continuing after episode 5 then. I felt like not much was happening honestly but I'll get back to it today hopefully.
some people's favourite arc, some people's most hated. I thought it was really tedious after a while, but I went in hearing about how long it was, so I guess that effected my enjoyment somewhat. Still a good arc nevertheless. It's worth prevailing with.What art said ^
