Deep and humerous

Wings of Homoneise was something really different. When I rented this film I expected to see the usual cliche half ass plot seeing as how that's usually all that Magna ever bring to the US. I was however really surprised when I finished with it though. The plot is really deep and the characters acted at times so intelligent and at other times I just wanted to strangle them for their stupidity, but then I realized, they portrayed people as they really are, imperfect. The only problem I had with it was well, the whole attempted rape scene, I for some reason didn't understand the course of action that what's her name took after the main character tried to umm....well, I don't wanna spoil it. Anyways, you should rent it if you see it at your local anime store or video store. -Remorse P.S. Why don't voices ever ask you to do good things? When someone hears voices it's always something bad....
