the vast majority of it
is absolute shite to be honest, barely a step up from Pokemon. Then there are the odd exceptions, where the animation and set pieces is truly astonishing. Appleseed is a good example...it uses all manner of rotoscoping techniques to convey incredibly lifelike and mind boggling scenes.

The guy who made Akira recently done a film called Steamboy, which is based in the Steampunk scene, whereby Victorian England is awash with massive mecha vehicles and weapons, all powered by steam. Its good, but it's no Akira.

Fair dooos
Some of it sounds interesting... but I think I'll stick to Die Hard for my action fix! 'Ho ho ho! Now I've got a machine gun'

Sweary Junior
is really into Bleach and Hellsing and something else that I can't remember the name of.

It's shite. The animation is crap, the dubbing execrable, and, more to the point, IT ALL LOOKS THE FUCKING SAME!!! Every character has the same angular features, made to look slightly different from each other by having different hair or bigger eyes. Or tits.
