To anyone who watched the disaster that was the netflix live adaptation and was put off - please try the original anime. It's a masterpiece. Animation, characters, storytelling, soundtrack - it's all top shelf.

The original intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL-D9LrFJd4

The English dub is better than most, and if you really can't deal with subtitles, go for it - but the original voice actors were some of the best and there's so much there, it's a bit of a shame to miss out on it if you can tolerate reading the subtitles.

It's easy to find the dubbed first episode of the anime series online on youtube, if anyone wants to get their feet wet.

I still don't know what Netflix was thinking, trying to take on one of the most beloved and respected animes ever made, and giving it the budget and casting of a SyFy Channel C-grade doomsday movie.
