Between Heaven and Haibane
[flv:http://www.dograt.com/Movies/Wordpress/Anime/Haibane.flv 425 240]
Honorable son Eric’s latest animé pick is a very odd offering, indeed. Odd because Haibane Renmei depicts angel-like (although not angelic) creatures who are perhaps on their way to Heaven? Seems like a rather Christian basis for a Japanese story. Without Netflix there’s no way we’d be able to see all of these animé titles.
