Did you watch the follow-up film The Conqueror of Shamballa? Some people really hate it - the main setting is a huge wrench away from the series; but it actually gives a more complete and satisfying resolution to the quest of the brothers, though still with a bitter-sweet tinge.

Momoiro Clover Z is doing the new opening and end themes for Sailor Moon Crystal before, what I didn't know though is that the girls (one of my favorite idol groups) have their chops in for the show, and have already recorded a cover of and performed (in cosplay no less) the original theme Moonlight Densetsu. It's pretty fucking awesome.
Saturday comes fast! Get hyped!

Twelve four-minute episodes - three-minute if you remove the OP and ED. A total of 36 minutes, plus OP and ED. I watched it as a single run edited together, and I suggest you do the same, because that way you get a more concentrated experience.
This show has got by far the worst reviews of any show I've watched, and I have to admit that this was largely why I decided to watch it. Could a show really be that bad? What would make it so? Can it actually be "the worst anime of all time"?
In the event, I found something which I believe doesn't deserve the bad rap. It is a study of the effects of family abuse, how it is passed on to other generations, and how it is hard for psychologists to deal with. I guess not many people see it the way I do! Too many people are just seeing the incestuous cannibalism for itself, instead of trying to work out what it's actually about. As a horror show, it is concentrated, almost too much so to get the full effect (watching it all together as I did helps with that anyway). As an allegory, it works for me; no answers are found, but the difficulty in finding answers in some such situations seems to me to be rather the point.
Utsutsu shows his love for his sister at a young age:
Utsutsu tells his sister's monster form that her loves her:
After which Yume starts to eat him:
Utsutsu declares that he will always love Yume, even though she is now a monster:
The veins signify that he is also a monster (which is why he can regenerate after being eaten);
the blood is from being eaten;
the other marks and bruises are from being beaten by their father.
Yume relieves her hunger for flesh by eating Utsutsu:
