Demon City: Shinjuku (1988) - Clip 01

[Sloodc21]

I was also about 9 or so when I saw this on the sci fi channel for the first time, it opened me up to the amazing world of anime, I started watching tenchi muyo though when I was about 6 or 7 tho, at that time tho I didn't even know it was japanese anime I just thought it was a badass cartoon series with much better animation and quality. I just saw Berserk (which I am now obsessed with) about a year and a half ago, the last episode "the hawk man cometh" kind of freaked me out tho lol. Good suff

[Sloodc21]

I loved this movie, too bad I can't watch it on here, I first saw this anime when the sci-fi channel was playing anime films (Movies) every saturday morning, back when anime was still newish to everyone and still badass as hell, womenizing, nudity, sex, cursing, extreme violence and not to mention the great paint cells/drawing.

[TheSakura1549]

love the animationx)

[TheSakura1549]

can someone pleeeez upload this movie!!

[MrEriklenn]

This was one of the first anime movies I ever watched. It was on the Sci-Fi Channel way back when they were doing a block called "Saturday Anime"

[SuperAntony2112]

Excellent film. I watched this in the early 90s on sci fi. Loved it

[Veiados]

I think Anime is an important part of our imaginative growth as a culture. I'm in love anime & have been since I was five & chanced upon Robotech, which at the time was my very first anime experiance. It opened my eye's to a brand new world & amazing creations such as this, Akira, Vampire Hunter D and so much more. It's influenced my creativity and lifestyle as well as opened my mind to endless possibilities in the writing field. I'm just happy I found all this stuff while I was young.

[LordDyhalto]

Fuck yeah. That's how you kill a huge monster.

[fenixlot]

I LOVE THIS ANIME I GOT THIS MOVIE AT SCIFI CITY LIKE IN 2001 AND I GOT IN TO REAL ANIME THE GUY THAT MADE THIS DID Wicked City, Ninja Scroll, and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust LIOVE IT GOT THEM ALL

[Saru2191]

A two headed dog? Fucking awesome.

[ziggygirl]

@Saru2191 Word. I'm mad I can't find this movie ANYWHERE. Well, in German but what good in that if we can't understand it. xD

[lethallady]

another horror anime is Lily Cat. U should check it out-its classic anime horror on a spaceship^^

[eternalnate]

Nothing beats urotsukidoji

[Cosmickey86]

I love the vibe of the older anime films.

[saritademon]

kuroo T.T

[enemyofbohemia]

Great set piece and fantastic animation!



[djugene69]

@InfinityWard312 - Geneocyber may be cyberpunk, BUT I was focusing on the descriptions that Tyrlena listed.

*SPOILERS*

In part 1 of Genocyber, --DEMON FROM IMAGINARY WORLD there is a homeless kid that Elaine hangs around with. He gets killed and in the final scene she sees his ghost and says goodbye --- then she blows up all of Japan.

In part 2, she is with three kids that get killed and she goes to naval battleship / lab and she can see the ghosts of the three kids throughout the episode.

[beast72486]

@djugene69 I own the Genocyber dvd...first time I watched it I ended up with a migraine LOL. As for Demon City....I watched it on SciFi Channel when I was like 8 or 9....just thought it was totally awesome to see a cartoon that wasn't cutesy or child oriented.

[WatchRyder]

I really dig the rocket skates! :D

[phubans]

I wish anime was still like this.

[adeellime]

classic!i had this on video tape back in the day!never seen it any where for dvd?!would love buy this again add the collection

[redfoxbennaton]

This has great animation. A little slow though.

[Ianistheman2]

@tyrlena The first one with the girl would be Genocyber I think, i'm not too sure about the other though.

[starlo3]

hey are there any other anime shows out there similar to this? ya know something with a lot of action, some blood and maybe, a good plot oh and may have swearing? (i.e. Samurai champloo, Ghost in the shell, Cowboy bebop, Appleseed, Blueseed, Naruto, Outlaw star, Ceres, etc...)

[videochemist]

it's sheer insanity how fucking awesome this is. kawajiri is a legend!

[komujimaru]

its crazy im 23 all my freinds in my age group have seen films like genocyber, violence jack and wicked city wen we were like 8 -9 years old. all on chanel 4. its craz

[djugene69]

The girl that turns into demon...maybe Genocyber.

[InfinityWard312]

@djugene69 You are wrong Genocyber is a cyberpunk cartoon. That mean it deals with technology not fantasy stuff.

[kingjamie2]

Woah that dude got triple-killed.

[TheThroney]

triple killed to the max!

[camaxtle]

the demon face looks exactly like the demon from jeepers creepers,yeah i know this came way before those movies...

[yethboth]

The beginning scene in this anime film is my favourite scene.

[Akyho]

oh yeah my father said that this anime was ok it wasnt that bad, since i had him watch it first for me when i was 8 after having seen, battle angle alita,akira,violence jack,genocyber and legend of the overfeind in that month that i went into an anime depression on the violence. he said it wasnt that bad yet i still avoided it and after this clip i am happy i chose avoid it since at that time i wouldnt have coped well. good thing i next one i saw was wicked city it wasnt as violent.

[Fajjani]

Why the fuck did u watch all those sick animes when u were 8 ?!

[Akyho]

Tell me how many sick horror films did you watch when you were 8? and do you still go looking for the most burtal horror film? i watched it because it was on tv and i enjoyed all the other animes it just a few took me over my confort zone but i am surprised i still finished most of them.

[Fajjani]

None, i guess.. Well, i enjoy watch some of these horror movies, but i never did when i was a kid.

[John2137]

wait where were they broadcast... here in america or another country

[Akyho]

in the UK back in 93-2001 they were shown.

[Aloverssoulz]

I saw this movie when I was 5. There is nothing wrong with watching something.

If it messes someone up it's because their weak minded to start with.

Stop being agest.

[Fajjani]

How a horror-movie affects you as a 5 year old is HARDLY representive for all off the worlds other kids.

It's a bit thick of you to say one got a weak mind for being affected negatively by a brutal horror-movie as a child. As a child your mind IS weak, wether you say it or not, though guy.

To watch movies like this when you are a child is not really defeandble

[Aloverssoulz]

If a movie messes up someone it's because they were pretty messed up to start with.

[Fajjani]

What the hell are you talking about? If a kid watches movies such as these he/she may be scarred for life. Children are frail, i hope you understand that.

Do not mix up potential psychopaths with kids who may get scarred for life watching a horror-movie.

[Aloverssoulz]

I watched this movie when I was 5 (in english and it was renamed Monster City) and I thought it was amazing and not all that scary.

I know grown men that won't watch any kind of horror cause it scares them to much.

Just because kids have weaker minds doesn't mean they shouldn't see things like this. You can't tell if someones going to be scared of a movie till they watch it.

[jericho696969]

Got your back on that one. The first Anime I ever saw was Devilman: The Demon Bird when I was 8 when I accidentally stumbled across it late night on Channel 4 over a decade ago.

It completley blew my mind as i'd never seen anything like it!

Nonetheless no matter how over the top violent it was and the rest of the Anime's i'd seen, i'd like to think ive turned out fine. No criminal record or anthing, not that I would reccomend this for all kids of course!

[InfinityWard312]

@Aloverssoulz I just about to say. I was thinking this is like Monster City and Wicked City. So you say they changed the name of it. This and Wicked City are still similar though.

[aldoreshgaramok]

@Aloverssoulz for real

i saw ninja scroll when I was like 9. I even watched it with my dad!

[videochemist]

fajjani is a troll. dont feed the troll.

[786SalamKhan]

@Akyho You actually watched Legend of the Overfiend and Violent Jack when you were 8???

[hitomiproxy01]

kralhoo q tzao esse anime vo tr q baixar ^^ kkk

[CarlosArgelGallardo]

YOU SON OF A BITCH MEGA ATTACK! O_O

[GNARK]

can some please tell me if theres a site i can watch this on with english dub?!?!?!?!

[Georgiacatcrimson]

That guy on the Skates, when I saw the english dub, he sounded like an adult from central america. but the japanese reveal him as a KID?

[AMOKIAN]

Does anyone know if , at the end of this movie

the entire city morphed with demons into a gigantic

blob of monsters and buildings?

Any help would be appreciated.

[eaw700]

no this movie doesnt end that way, sounds like you speak of Akira although that was not about demons.

[livinlikeananimal]

this is the first anime i ever saw, can you upload the full movie?

[Sage2000]

The tears are rollig... I saw this sooo many yeards ago and could not find it anymore.

Scfi Saturday, they used to have a cute chick in cosplay host the show. Can't remeber her name, but then again I wasn't really paying attention to what she was say'n.

[zoddman]

[VZMkII]

The dub for this is HILARIOUS, I should just buy it the next time I see it cheap at an anime con.
