Cromartie High School, Anime series
Cromartie High School is no ordinary school. It’s a school for delinquents. The most important subject is “fighting” and their biggest concern is “who the biggest badass is?” Everything they talk about is completely random and has nothing to do with school. You could say this anime is pointless, …

The plot: …
The Danish Girl (2015 Film)

Dramas …
Clash of the Titans (1981 movie)

FLCL
The anime series “FLCL,” short for “Fooly Cooly” or “Furi Kuri,” is an artistic amazement. The storyline is a little unclear, being a
three-way battle between main characters, but deliciously abstract and humorous. The plot’s hyperactive pace, and features that catagorize the series as anything from comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi …
