Anime Insider: 50 Best Anime Series
As I slowly get myself back on track I thought I'd deliver one more anime post for those looking to educate themselves on some of the best options out there within the genre.
Unfortunately, this is yet another odd, random list from ANIME INSIDER #18 (2005).I'm not exactly sure what the operating variables were in their selection process for the 50 BEST ANIME SERIES. For me personally a series denotes something with continuity or more than one. So, why would some full-length feature films make their list and not others?It's a completely bizarre assembly of the best and certainly defies logic, but I thought I would give that list to you in the event you were looking for a starting point on films or series despite the ANIME INSIDER's complete disregard for the English language while I strategize on more robust future posts. I've edited the list to try and note this Sci-Fi Fanatic's highlights.This is a small complement to the previous ANIME INSIDER BEST ANIME EVER post .

Yeah, that was about the same reaction I had!

Space Pirate Captain Harlock
Before I actually get into the review, let me just briefly explain what Captain Harlock is for those who aren't really that big into anime. Captain Harlock was first put onto the screen in 1978 and has been one of the more important pieces of Sci-Fi anime ever since. The good Captain was the first anime character to ever win the Anime Grand Prix for favorite character, as well as being place fourth in Mania Entertainments "10 Most Iconic Anime Heroes."
The 1978 show and character would later go on to influence many many future Sci-Fi anime's such as Gundam Wing, Martian Successor Nadesco, and Neon Genesis Evangelion. While I wrote in the last review that this would be a more than a 1 post review, I won't be doing that. Explanation as to why is down at the bottom for those interested. Anyway, on with the review!

Miyazaki to Evangelion Creator: Make a NausicaSequel
Okay, so, don't freak out, but it seems that HAYAO MIYAZAKI just gave HIDEAKI ANNO permission to go ahead and make that Nausicaof the Valley of the Wind sequel he's been bugging him about for years.
Superficially, one might not see a lot of elements in common between Nausicaof the Valley of the Wind and Anno's magnum opus Neon Genesis Evangelion, but they both pretty heavily feature horrifying, giant humanoid automatons created by but barely under control of mere humans, and an apocalypse that isn't really the end of the universejust an ongoing change that the human race can't reverse and may not be able to adapt to. According to Anime News Network, Anno himself was partially inspired by the God Warriors of Nausica to create his uncanny Evas. And according to a recent interview, he's been bugging Hayao Miyazaki about making a sequel for years.

Top 5 Thursday: Top 5 Main Characters
Top 5 Thursday is a meme that I create to make lists of things involving tv and movies. I would love for anyone that sees this post to make list of their own whether it's in the comment section or on their own blog.
This week's topic is main characters because I often find that the main characters in most series aren't usually my favorite so I get really happy whenever I love a main character a lot.
1. TOHRU HONDA(FRUITS BASKET): Tohru is a character that I love because of the kindness that she extends to everyone and I love that she accepts everyone as they are. She always seems to be able to try and see things from other people's point of view which enables her to give pretty good advice on a situation without even really trying. I love that while she has her own pain she always seems to put other people first and I love that she learned through out the series that she should let herself worry about her own wants and needs sometimes. I just overall really love Tohru's positive attitude.
