This anime starts out very dark with people looking for a girl in the woods named Megumi, who looks dead on the forest floor. The colors in this anime are lovely, bright, and vibrant at times with a strong contrast, but they are also very dark at other times. The music in this anime also sounds dark, so the music and colors suit this anime's dark themes well.

This anime was so popular when I was young! It is considered a classic like Sailor Moon and Studio Ghibli. You can see the popularity of this anime in the fact that it has numerous movies, OVAs, and six different versions and seasons. I will review all of them to see how this anime changed over time and to compare them, but for now, we will start with the first season of this anime that I ever watched that came out when I was a kid.

Top 3 Best Historical Animes and Films of 2018 最高の歴史的なアニメ

Historical animes are amazing! You get to learn about and see how life was in the past, centuries or decades ago. Traditional historical clothing and settings are beautiful to look at as well. History buffs will love these types of animes, and many of them are created every year. I watched every historical anime from 2018 that I could find, and out of all of them, these 3 were my favorites; they were the top best ones created in 2018. 

Top 4 Best Vampire Animes of 2018 最高の吸血鬼アニメ

One of my favorite types of animes to watch are vampire animes. The reason for this is because they tend to have a deep complicated plot, and a strong storyline. The graphical designs tend to be very in depth and amazing in these as well. If you love the paranormal and supernatural, then this is the genre to watch! Several supernatural vampiric animes came out in 2018, but here are my top 4 best vampire animes of this year.

Top 3 Best Favorite Shoujo Animes and Films of 2018 最高の少女アニメ

Shoujo animes are one of the most popular genres of anime. One of the most popular animes of all time, and which put anime on the map in America, was a shoujo anime called Sailor Moon. Shoujo stands for maiden, so it represents animes tailored to young girls. 

Shoujo anime can be full of intimate sweet romance, like those once in a lifetime loves and first time loves; they also have themes that focus on personal growth and self-discovery. Many of my most-loved animes are shoujos, so today, I will share with you all my favorite, top best shoujo animes of 2018.

Kiki's Delivery Service was the first Studio Ghibli film that I ever fell in love with; it was the Ghibli film that put Studio Ghibli on the map for me. I watched Kiki's Delivery Service over and over again as a child. There is just something about Kiki's personality, adorable Jiji, and the magic surrounding Kiki's everyday life, that added so much excitement to mine. So naturally, just as I fell in love with the film, I also fell in love with the soundtrack. So, here are the top best songs from the film Kiki's Delivery Service.

Howl's Moving Castle is one of my absolute favorite films among the Studio Ghibli films. The amazing romance between Howl and Sophie, the magical elements, and the historical setting, make it an absolute gem for me. Of course, I can't forget precious Markle and sweet Calcifer as well. 

The setting, characters, story line, and animation itself in this film make it amazing, but so does the soundtrack. Howl's Moving Castle does not have a huge soundtrack like Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, but the few that it does have are amazing. So, here are the top 4 best songs in the film Howl's Moving Castle.

Final Fantasy VIII has one of my absolute favorite soundtracks. There were so many amazing songs in this soundtrack, and Rinoa, playful cute Selphie, and Squall were amazing characters. Some people didn't care for the relationship between Rinoa and Squall, but regardless, the game and the soundtrack are memorable and have a special place in my heart. So, here are the top best Final Fantasy 8 songs from the soundtrack.

Final Fantasy is so famous for its games, soundtracks, anime series, and films. I was an avid player of all the Final Fantasy games as a teen. I loved Tifa, Cloud, and Aerith in Final Fantasy 7, and I felt that Tifa and Cloud were a great pairing. The music in the soundtrack was great as well, so here are 16 of the best songs in the Final Fantasy VII soundtrack.
