    What better way to continue the dive that Rob & Ben are taking into the universe of adult animation than with one of the seminal projects of the art form?  Before "The Matrix", before "Star Wars" even began to understand what sentience of droids even implied, before Hayao Miyazaki even knew how important his work at Studio Ghibli was, the human species was given what Rob describes as the "California Roll" of anime.  The sole inspiration for Toonami and the reason anime became something known in North America, and likely the rest of the world, it's quite possibly the objectively best animated film of all time: 1995's "Ghost in the Shell".   Want to hear more from Rob & Ben?  Well their love for animation doesn't stop at these episodes, they carry over to the Cinemoddities patreon where one episode a month is dedicated to covering every single episode of "Adventure Time" in order!  Other than that, we cover fan requests for people who join that tier of patronage!  Get in on that gang straight through www.patreon.com/Cinemoddities   Download Ben's Life Counter app for Magic: The Gathering, now free, on the play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zianderthalapps.life_counter) or the Apple store (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zianderthal-tcg-life-counter/id1555106877), and be sure to shop at TCGplayer using Ben's affiliate link: bit.ly/TheLifeCounter    Yell at us through email by contacting us at Cinemoddities@gmail.com    Thank you to An Insperioirty Complex for providing our theme song.  Usually, a link is included here to listen to more of their music, but they have graciously forgiven their ad spot on these show notes to promote their sister-band, The Immortal Lansburys!  They have a new album, "The Introspective Landscape", which is available wherever you listen to music!  Here's the Spotify link to find it now: https://open.spotify.com/album/468RLcf3cql2Y1nydhHSIH?si=CEyf5MAnRkCKGCjKzHjp1g
