A normie's haphazardly ordered guide to an often-overlooked art form | The View from Mudsock Heights

For the last little while I’ve been watching a remarkable program, “Wonder Egg Priority,” that adopts an unconventional approach in considering the tragedy of child suicides. Before that, I watched and very much enjoyed a series, “Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai,” which despite the weird title takes a metaphysical view of adolescent issues. My favorite movie is the highly praised “Your Name,” a comedy-romance-thriller-mystery, though I’m told I’ll have a new favorite when I see “A Silent Voice.”
They’re all Japanese cartoons.
We in the West call Japanese cartoons “anime.” And here, anime is often looked down upon. I propose that its reputation is undeserved. If you miss out on the best of anime, you are missing a lot of great art, as good as the best artistry found in live-action motion pictures and television shows, and often better.
