i'd love to, but i don't want to use up the data cap on my access looking for one. there was an online class on youtube about directing video that focused on it, oh ant it was from ghost in the shell that they used for examples, also there was one about red pepper, i think it was called.
I will have a look at Ghost in the Shell again. I wonder if you mean how the story develops through revelations instead of real time.
that's part of it, and by red pepper i meant paprika, which was an animated full length that i think was a one shot. and basically yes, that's still an element in what i consider to be the good anime, of course there's plenty of just for fun that's ok too, like that cross galaxy ninja cooking class thing.
I went looking for that cooking show that you just mentioned. Is it one of these?; 8 Cooking-Themed Anime To Watch (& 7 To Skip)
