My last weekend

I noticed a new fansub at Dattebayo of a Japanese show called Denno Coil. The boys and I watched the first two episodes. It's pretty good -- the themes and animation style are very reminiscent of Studio Ghibli. The characters are great -- I particularly love the grandmother: Megabaa. She appears to be not only a kind of spiritual leader for the kids, but also a technical wizard. She runs a candy store where the kids buy all of the technical stuff and software for exploring a virtual cyber world that's superimposed over the real world. I'm looking forward to the next episode.
