I'm sure it's old, and you've already all seen it or read it... but if not, take a look at Mushi-shi: www.hulu.com/watch/35641/mushi-shi-the-green-seatI'd attempt to explain it, but it would probably be best to simply watch one and see what you think. As I said elsewhere on here, it's not full of romance or fighting, just ideas. I love it. But I haven't gotten too far into the series, so if you've seen it, please try not to spoil anything on here (but please do let me know if the anime or manga retains its high quality throughout). Thanks!

Really great, but very different kind of anime series. If your big on action and don't like a lot of talking, your not gonna like this one. But if you prefer anime shows that get a little more creative, and force you to think a bit more, this the show for you. As a matter of fact, this show, AND a personal favorite of mine, Kino's Journey are really great anime series, I love them both.

I'm surprised more people aren't into this stunning show. The free videos linked in the first post are going to expire off of hulu in the next couple of days, as the boxed set has finally gotten released on amazon: www.amazon.com/Mushi-shi-The-Complete-Series/dp/B001GT9DRK/The reviews are better on the page for the first dvd, though ~ much better than I could put it, if you're still wondering about the show: linkFUNimation's youtube channel has all the episodes up, but they of course are chopped into tiny sections and the picture quality is not as good as on hulu: www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A87D467327376886 Also, Anime News Network has a good review up about them: www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/mushishi/dvd-1Me, I'm just stunned speechless about the beauty and depth of this show. See? Speechless.
