                      "Blues Brothers" in-jokes.

                      A number of animated shorts by various talents. This
                      movie demonstrates the wide variety of japanese

                      high school romances, Robotech-style combat shows,
                      Kung-Fu movies, and any story in which Tokyo gets blown
                      up repeatedly. Schoolgirl rivalry between Ako and Bko
                      accidentally thwarts an apparent invasion of Earth.

                      children/lab experiments. Are they living in the final
                      days before the End, or is it a prelude to a cosmic

Come and See!
