Well basically im at uni doing History, but for some reason i picked "Science Fiction" as a wild module. I have just picked the title for my next essay and it is :
"Write a critical comparison of some aspect of science fiction of two countries originally written in different languages."
So...as an anime fan i picked Japanese and English!!


Anyone got any recommendations of comparisons to make?
Recommendations of english Sci Fi to watch?
Recommendations of Japanese Sci Fi to watch?

It gets better when you realise the creators of Ghost in a shell credited the Animatrix as their inspiration.

It's anime. Nothing is impossible. Especially not when it concerns the Matrix.

Amm.. no. Not re-search, that would be to "search again". Just "Search". Also known as "Bing", "Google" or "Wikipedia". Indeed.
