Anime is hand-drawn and computer animation originating from Japan.

Anime; the one thing that gets us closer to each other and brings us together.

It was very fun to stare slack-jawed at a screen for 45 minutes trying to understand what was happening, and I did manage to largely follow the plot, but seeing as how I'm a new audience to this insanity, can anyone just throw in some production context? Like why or how was this made, was it based on a manga, who made it and do they produce similar things or was this an example of how far you could stretch a dollar to make a crazy story?

100% worth watching, to anyone wondering.

Guren Lagan is the best "saturday morning cartoon" type of anime I've ever seen. It's the pinnacle of that vibe.

Oh I know that anime, actually watched it while I was in Japan. Yeah, I like that show.
