Wow…… all that can be said X/1999 the movie is what happens is when you take a shojo manga get one of the best directors in the industry to work on it, and you get one of the greatest animated films ever made that infinitely elevates the source material , This is director Rintaro at his most raw and unrestrained. Every frame and action scene a painting the entire film is the theoretical third act of the X manga and by God it delivers, Scenes can be beautiful and poetic, yet visceral and profoundly disturbing, leading to a tragic yet beautiful ending.I know lots of people throughout the years have hated this film but I implore you watch it in a dark room and indulge in the gorgeous animation and moody atmosphere I promise it’ll be worth it, a 10/10 up with Galaxy express 999 and ponyo for my favorite anime movie
