CGI Anime - Blu-ray Forum

Socko · 05-12-2014, 06:43 PM

Not sure if I'm in the right section to ask this, but here goes.
I love CGI animated material from Asia, but there aren't many.

My favorites are:

Wonderful Days (2003) a.k.a. Sky Blue
Appleseed (2004)
Appleseed: Ex Machina (2007)
Vexille (2007)
although I own Appleseed on DVD and Appleseed: Ex Machina on blu-ray, I like to have them all on blu-ray.

I was wondering if there are more of these movies out there.
I know Ghost in the Shell comes close in graphics.
And there's the upcoming Appleseed Alpha (which looks more like a videogame)
And ofcourse Space Pirate Captain Harlock.

Also which Vexille is the best version to get?
There are 3 listed on blu-ray.com

thanks in advance

1 of the releases for Vexille listed here on Blu-ray.com was cancelled. The other 2 are the same thing except 1 has the S.A.V.E. banner on the cover and the other does not.

I enjoyed Final Fantasy VII Advent Children and i'm not exactly a big fan of Final Fantasy.

Ghost in the Shell:Arise is all 3D CGi as is Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.

There's also Cat Shit One - like Call of Duty with animals...it's awesome in the action department if you like modern military tactics, but its really short at about 20'ish minutes!

There is also one known simply as TO (done by Sori of Appleseed/Vexille fame) which is based off 2 stories from the Graphic Novel trilogy 2001 Nights...but nowhere as good as the graphic novels. Not really recommended...

Could have fooled me about the first title! They look nothing alike.

Actually GiTS: Arise is about 50/50 CGi 3d models/2d models. 2nd one has more CGi 3d models than the first one though. There's also the TV series Arpeggio of Blue Steel which is 100% CGi 3D models (took me a few episodes to figure that out during the simulcast last year)... it's all on how you want the look to be and the color/lighting choices for rendering...

Also like to add RWBY to the fully 3D CGi mix...
