Default Monthly Marathon Satoshi Kon: Sept 24-27




Welcome to Monthly Marathon September- Satoshi Kon & MADHOUSE. Here's a chance to get several classics under your belt, and some lesser known ones as well.

When?
Sept 24-27

Recommendations: Please add Recommendations for these series once you've watched them! Every single recommendation made helps out the thousands of people who use the database each month to find new stuff to watch. Everyone who participates in this Monthly Marathon should add recommendations for other series they think a person would like, if they can think of any.

User Reviews: User reviews don't have to be many paragraphs, or even have good English. They can be as little as a single paragraph just to explain what you thought of the series and any extra tips for the reader. The longer and more detailed the better though, of course.

How?
Just choose a series from the list, movie or OVA and watch it! Post how many episodes you watched if you didn't complete or started off at a certain episode. Counting will go as follows:
1 Episode = 1 point
1 OVA = 2 points
1 Movie = 3 points
rec / user review = .5 points
Bonus 5 points if you completely finish a series
Prizes for doing a Monthly Marathon:
  1. One lucky person with the most Points will get a banner to parade around Anime-Planet for the whole month!
  2. Company while you marathon the shows with fellow Anime-Planet members
  3. Hours of anime added to your watched list
  4. Knowing you have helped out the site by adding more content to it
  5. TACO Points for TACO members

Allowed Series
Series Name (Number of Episodes) - Please watch at least one bolded selection

Well I'll try to remember to watch Paranoia Agent and Kon's movies (might make sense to add the Magnetic Rose segment of 'Memories' also).

I'd like to recommend Memories too, since it's another SK work.

Lots of great series this time around... too bad I've watched most of them, and there's only a bolded one I didn't watch :P

Anyways, I'll try:

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
Himitsu: The Revelation
Nana
Tokyo Tribe 2
Hitsuji no Uta
Take the X Train

I really doubt I'll have the time, but still I want to try some of those... Luckily it's not time for exams yet.

By the way, I totally recommend Run Melos!, it's a great movie.

I just fear that Run Melos! will come up short compared to Aoi Bungaku's Run Melos story, which was excellent.

Both were really good IMO, but I preferred the movie. It's not like Bungaku's story in a sense, though. There's no dualism between Melos' tale and the translator's, it's only the story of Melos.
