description:

In the sixth year of the Kan’ei era (1629), at the beginning of the Edo period, a samurai was hired to settle a grievance in the castle of Suruga. Appearing in a tournament which contraventioned all of the existing dueling laws to allow the use of real swords, the one-armed samurai starts a battle with a blind lame swordsman which brings together for the last time two mighty swordsmen whose bloody intertwined past is as beautiful and as gruesome as the scarred wounds that adorn their bodies and souls.

comment:

while the blu-ray source by funimation doesn’t warrant 1080p, it does help a lot to avoid a lot of artifacts that’d appear in 720p due to the heavy grain nature, this series has.
the reason itself is rather weak, and in addition, those encodes are a little overcompressed, but they should do a lot better than the rips present so far, as those were just overfiltered.

Confined in the castle tower by her father, princess Arete spends her days watching the world outside her window. Sometimes she seeks out to watch the common people at work. The knights of the kingdom compete for the right to marry her and rule the land by competing to see who can find powerful magic objects made by a long dead race of sorcerers. Arete wants none of this. She longs to meet the common people and travel to exotic lands she has only seen in the books she keeps hidden under her bed. One day the sorcerer Boax arrives in a fantastic flying machine and offers to take Arete as his wife and transform her into a proper princess.

note:

princess arete release is suffering from a corruption at 1:13:20:813.
it might cause an audio error, or visual stuttering for few seconds, and keeps on playing afterwards.
would prefer if people would cease supporting that release until a fixed version is released.
unfortunately, that might take a while.

Following the events of the first Ghost in the Shell movie, Major Motoko Kusanagi has since left her physical body and is now a “ghost” living in the network. This leaves Batou as the top officer at Section 9, the special task force assigned to matters of human/machine relations.

Batou’s latest assignment is to investigate the recent string of suicide-murders perpetrated by a certain brand of “gynoids” — androids designed to look like women. Together with officer Togusa (one of the last few people who hasn’t had his body fitted with cybernetic parts), Batou tracks down the cause of the wayward gynoids — all the while pondering and discussing the hazy realms where machines become dangerously close to human, and humans become dangerously close to machines.

During the beginning years of the Great Depression, life in the Mediterranean has become difficult. Aerial pirate raids are gaining in frequency, thus requiring the need for capable “bodyguards”. One of the best is a pig known as Porco Rosso. Once a human and an ace pilot during World War I, he now freelances his services to those in distress. The fascist regime that has taken over the Italian Air Force has grown tiresome of his exploits and places a bounty on his head. On top of that, a hotshot flyer from the United States arrives and not only wants to steal Porco Rosso’s glory, but also the woman he loves so dearly.
