The meme so supreme you have to scream. This is an emotional rollercoaster of a production. As our lavishly animated characters transform, so do we. This is not only a remarkable coming of age tale, however; it is also a scathing satire of Japanese youth culture and our human foibles as a whole. It turns the mirror to the viewer, and makes them ask the question: Do I go, go, galo sengen? Does anyone? Hideaki Anno is a hack. Hayao Miyazaki is a fraud. There is only Galo Sengen. Please understand, I only give this masterpiece a ten out of ten because MAL's reductive scoring system permits meto go no higher. A ten implies mere perfection. Galo Sengen is beyond such petty concepts.
