Anime Recommendations?

No it's not.

I was thinking more along the lines of Dragonaut. Saw a bit of it at a con. I guess the big selling point is that it had the same character designer as the guy who did the anime adaptations for Witchblade. Yeah.
yellowfoliage:
Hahahahahahahaha Witchblade!
Witchblade (comic and anime) used to appeal to me for the same reasons Ninja Scroll did: tits and gore. Then I turned 14. Although I must admit Witchblade/Dragonaut and the like are on a whole different plane of suck than Ninja Scroll.

Bobobo-bo bo-bobo?
Alex C:
Yeah, see, I'm careful about criticizing Ninja Scroll and Wicked City because they are very competently something I have no real interest in. They're simple minded, but they're ultimately about visceral reactions. It doesn't really interest me but I must admit that the character designs and animation are pretty damn effective and they don't really pull any punches. Do I prefer more restraint? Yeah, I guess so, but the imagery certainly gets the idea of what they're trying to accomplish across loud and clear.
Dragonaut is just kind of a big dumb and surprisingly high budget anime. It's built around fan service while managing to be completely unsexy. Even if you were looking for something that fills the boobs and action template I would have to think you could do better. Definitely worse than Ninja Scroll.
