Anime World Order (AWO), a great, great anime podcast, is currently reviewing the past decade’s (2000 – 2009) significant anime. As of this writing, they’ve only covered until 2004.

My pal AnarchyTech brought my attention to 『the TV show』, an awesome indie animated (自主制作アニメーション) music video by SUGIMOTO Kousuke (director) and MANABE Takayuki (music).
