Just another 5 cm per second story

One of the many movies I’ve recently seen (but failed to mention here) was “5 Centimeters Per Second“. It’s an animation film (animé) which premiered in Japan a year ago.

The Basilisk marathon

Basilisk is one of those short anime series that I would want to collect. Purchase an original DVD copy, that is. When I saw the first two episodes, I swore that I wouldn’t let Fluffy watch this anime without me.
