I watched Eden of the East the series in one shot tonight/this morning… how do you even begin to describe it to people? I thought FLCL was unique… I think there’s a new standard. It wasn’t a completely new narrative, but it was so well wrapped in layers, and little touches, thought candy, that it comes off incredibly well polished… but you feel like you’re sucked along a wild ride at the same time. I also applaud them for taking recent events and incorporating them instead of backing away.
I guess if I had one word to describe it… I’d say “weird.”
Evidently there’s two movies that pick up at the end of each other, but the latter has a little bit of a dud
ending. (Blast you wikipedia spoilers!) I debate if I want to watch them or not.
