I finished with Setokai Yakuindomo. Very funny. But not much else.
Purely in terms of "laughs per minute" it's probably the funniest anime I've ever watched. But there's nothing else worth watching the show for. The characters are outright boring, half of them are purely cliches, and the plot is basically non-existent. It's basically a bunch of random scenes tossed together that coincidentally fall into a timeline of events that are mostly unrelated to each other.
Overall, good but not quite worth the $15 I paid for it.
Next up is Kimi ni Todoke.
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

BTW I think Christopher Nolan likes anime a lot.
I've heard of Paprika but never watched it. Guess I'll have to do it.
What makes you believe Nolan likes Anime? I'm just curious.

Watch the film, you'll understand, Paprika is basically a more psychedellic, anime version of Inception, kind of.

Mmm okay. I just watched like a 60 second trailer. I can certainly see some similarities between the two.

Wikipedia wrote:Development began roughly nine years before Inception was released. In 2001, Nolan wrote an 80-page treatment about dream-stealers, presenting the idea to Warner Bros. The story was originally envisioned as a horror film inspired by concepts of lucid dreaming and dream incubation.
Paprika came out in 2006 so...
...yeah I doubt it had much, if any influence at all on Inception.

It's in french but he was inspired by Paprika. I'm quite shocked actually, I can assure you that James Cameron would never admit that Avatar draws some heavy influences from Pocahontas .
