Summary: Not even amnesia can make you forget this...
Review: In this remarkably animated, classic, colorful, brilliantly composed film a world has been swept by the wind of Amnesia. This wind has left everyone's soul lost in the body of a mindless newborn baby. The world in which they once lived is now decayed from the abscence of functional mankind and it up to one man to save it. He will travel around the world searching for life and along his heroic adventure he will encounter many different obstacles he will need to overcome. He can, he will....he has to...save the place that once was Planet Earth.

Summary: Eh...
Review: It's an okay movie, but not great. The situations were interesting, like the cop with the daughter and the self sufficient city with two citizens doing everything. Ultimately, I was left unsatisfied. The unrelenting, unmanned mech got a little distracting. The movie tries to show that the ones who created the amnesia wanted to do it for some higher understanding, but I thought they came off as grossly irresponsible. The main character was far too understanding toward a being whose species destroyed human civilization in the name of an obviously flawed experiment.

Summary: A wind named amnesia.. a movie you won't be forgetting...
Review: Kazuo Yamazaki, director of Ninja Scroll, directed a delightful anime here. It's about a young man who's quest is to help the planet after it's been through a disaster. This disaster is a wind, which manages to erase most of the population's memory. This disables people from recognizing their loved ones, to being able to drive a car or work a microwave. Furthermore this movie is about our hero who meets many interesting people on his journey, including a mysterious beautiful tall woman, named Sophie. Yamazaki's vision is true, as he directs a great, and well thought out drame. The consequences such a predicament would have on the world, are well thought out and well presented. However unlike a typical movie in it's genre, this one leaves us with a somewhat hopeful ending. The animation is on par with anything which was released during it's age, and the movie lasts a fantastic 80 minutes. The sign of a great movie is, when the characters linger with you for days, after the end of the movie. These characters certainly stuck with me for a while, especially Sophie. If you like thought provoking movies, which don't ask you to think, but watch and be amused, this is deifinitely for you. It seems very real, and I would recommend it whole heartedly, because despite it's premise... this movie is not depressing. ENJOY!

Summary: Well, the concept is there....
Review: Needless to say, this anime isn't for everyone. Some may not understand the story, as it tends to jump around and the plot seems mixed up. However, the concept behind the story is fairly interesting. A wind that makes the world forget everything they ever knew, but the show jumps around so much, it seems to take them a while to actually tell you about it. The art style is nice, the animation solid and fluid. I haven't listen to the English Dub, so I won't comment on it.
If you don't mind thinking through your anime, you should be fine. The show may move around a lot, but overall it isn't too bad.

Summary: Good But Old
Review: Okay,I have to say this an okay movie.It just talks about a man named Wataru and he meets a girl named Sophia and then they travel around the country trying to pick up people who lost their memories and Wataru is willing to teach them things.Then Wataru finds out who caused the wind of Amnesia and blah blah blah.Most of the movie is about other people they meet then it talks about Wataru and Sophia.There's a lot of nudity though so I dont reccomend it for kids.Also,if this movie was drawna bit better then I would have given it five stars.I dont know why but I cant stand old anime.

Summary: This Belongs In The Collection Of Any Japanime Fan!
Review: Simply put, this is one of the best anime's I have ever seen. The story revolves around a young man named Wataru, a Japaneese male living in America. One day, a wind blew across the entire planet, robbing everyone of their most basic memories, reducing the human race to barbaric and frightened animals in a matter of seconds. Drivers behind the wheel forget how to operate their cars and crash, clans worship construction equipment as their god, once peaceful neighbors fight to the death over a piece of beef... This is a very interesting look at the glue that holds our society together, and how quickly that could become undone. You will not be disapointed with this one. I promise!

Summary: good story but squanders it
Review: the film has a good story and is about to make a very good statement about humanity, but in the end it just ends before they can make any statement. I would have been better if they extended he end 20 minutes just to see if they got thier memory back.

Summary: this sux!
Review: The theme was dull and overdone. Basically, everyone forgets how to be human and act like dogs, and this guy is taught by this other guy and this chick how to be human. The plot is self-riteous: humans need to do this-and-that to be perfect like the aliens who erased their memories. One of the worst anime ever.

Summary: Interesting, but disappointing
Review: This anime was entertaining and thought-provoking, but I was disappointed in the "secret" of the wind's origins and the hero's reaction when he learns it. I won't spoil it for the viewer, but I found his continued friendly association with the female protagonist from that point on impossible to accept.

Summary: dream-like anime stalks us all!
Review: This anime which focuses on the experiences of a young one lost amidst an apocalyptic nightmare has a great sequence with a military nurtured telekinetic whose designer should get some sort of reward for him. also loveable is the cop who lost his memory of his daughter so clings to the young girl in the city who needs his protection. good plot, kind of fizzles toward the end though. well worth the rental fees. anime will one day comand our minds.
