Kai Doh Maru
running time of 75 minutes... film (single movie) is 45 minutes actually, they have a production report that's 30 minutes and they add that to the total running time on the DVD, but it's still only 45 minutes

i liked the color of the film, it doesn't go weird at times, it starts off light the old japanese artwork looked like and livens up for climactic scenes, i liked how they did that, and it would make a beautiful AMV if done right
(not by someone making a crappy video just to prove me wrong that it would make a beautiful video)

The colour was interesting, the problem is that the storytelling is very chopping. It goes from one scene to the next with no feeling of natural movement.
It's difficult to tell two of the characters apart, and even after watching it a couple times it's difficult to tell who some of the characters are (and why they are there) to begin with.

Basically, it's a renter.

very true, althought i'd probably still buy it cause of the artwork

the story is definately not easily understandable the first run through, and i even watched it subbed to make it easier in case i didn't hear them say sumtin... still haven't watched it for the second time yet though, but i will, i at least want to understand the movie

You could have read some reviews about it or asked the opinions of others.

Another thing, out of all the animes that are out you only chose that one, I wonder why?
