In this episode of Talkin’ Talk Club, we explore the world of Anime movies. 

Dan and James share the same birthday: Dan, who recently turned 50, has only ever seen 2 Anime movies in his life. James, who recently turned 17, has been watching and enjoying Anime for years. 

James set Dan a challenge: He created a list of 10 Anime moves that represent some of the best available and set Dan the task of watching them before they recorded this episode. What follows is a lively conversation about great Japanese animation.

Here’s James’s list of classic anime movies:

Spirited AwayHowl’s Moving CastlePrincess MononokeThe Red TurtlePaprikaPerfect BlueA Silent VoiceThe Tale of Princess KaguyaThe Grave of the FirefliesNeon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion

We also mention Your Name, The Boy and the Heron and Tokyo Godfathers.
