Princess Mononoke and Night Raid 1931

Wow it has been so long since I have posted and that really blows "/ 
Well I have watched a little anime since then. I have seen a couple of episodes of Night Raid 1931 which is pretty good and an interesting plot line about this secret military group from the Japanese Imperial Army that was sent to China after the whole WW1 affair. Only problem is that I have been so preoccupied lately that I haven't been able to correctly pay attention to this anime mainly because the plot is a little bit more than just a high school drama. But I would recommend it anyway :) 
The second is Princess Mononoke. Now I did pay attention to this movie and an excellent one I must say. It is something that every anime lover should watch out there because 1. it is a pretty old but good movie and 2. it is by miyazaki, 'nough said. However I did get quite annoyed with that kid just letting the forest be destroyed. But it is basically about a young man's journey to reverse this curse that was placed on him by a demon. He runs into this place called Iron Town and they use the iron from the ground in the forests and the spirits of the forests don't like it obviously. He also befriends the human girl who runs with the wolf spirit clan to help him find the spirit that would remove the curse. In between there is this fighting going on between the forest spirits and the townspeople and some of the government. The guy gets involved and doesn't really choose a side he says they all need to get along. I won't ruin the end so I recommend watching it. You can tell it is an older movie by the animation but it is still good, I can't believe how long it has taken me to actually watch it lol.
