Relishing lost art.
I first saw this movie on television as a child. I fell in love with the story,art and music. If you are a fan of hand drawn (80s and 90s anime) like spirituality and blood then this movie is definately for you.

X was fantastic and in perfect shape shrink wrapped and everything i was very proud to get it because it has all the awesome action that the episodes have in the episodes condensed into a stupendously made movie. My thanks to the seller and to the creators, clamp, for creating such a fantastic anime that should be watched by any anime lover.

Can a man change his destiny?
An interesting question X tries to answer. Before I start my review here's a little warning:DO NOT WATCH THIS WITH THE ENGLISH DUB!!!I saw it twice in japanese and understood everything. Then I saw it once in english and I was totally lost. Everything is different in English! The brief moments of humor - gone. The tragic element of impending doom - completely missing. Any sense of compassion or sympathy for Kamui, Fuma or Kotori - simply not there. But rest assured that in their places we find a) bad acting b) a lot of words and pointless explanations that were NOT in the original version c) Some of the most incredibly stupid translations and pronounciations of names.People said "Kotori" and I thougt they were talking about "cutlery". And somehow they made "Kamui" sound exactly like "Kanoe"My favorite moment in the english version is when Kotori cuts her hand on the magic rain and as she starts bleeding Fuma brilliantly points out "You're hurt!". In the Japanese version he says nothing.So, anyhoodelidoodely: my reviewI like it. The anmation is great. The interaction between the good guys (however brief) lets us know exactly what they're like and what the chemistry between them is like. The two bad guys (the one who control water and the one who has that long scarf thingy -I forget their names) are sooooo cool. I only subtracted a star because I would have prefered to see less people die from suicide/selfdestruct/two for one kind of thing where both fighters perish together. The best deaths are the individual ones. And while the end is no surprise I love it. It's short, sweet, to the point and completely inevitable. The whole movie plays out like a greek tragedy. Their destinies foretold the brave warriors try to alter fate but find in doing so they actually end up making it happen. Great stuff. Yes, Tragic but great. Everything can't be a Disney cartoon!And don't worry about not understanding the plot. Anyone who knows anything about anime should catch on to the storyline pretty quickly. It's quite straight forward and should certainly not stop anyone from enjoying this fine piece of work and its gorgeus art and stunning animation. But in JAPANESE for God's sake!
