If you loved Kaze to Ki no Uta Sanctus: Sei Naru Kana, try Crusher Joe

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, and they both carry the outsider mood tag, and they sit in Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to Kaze to Ki no Uta Sanctus: Sei Naru Kana, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Crusher Joe is

You're Crusher Joe, ace pilot, taking jobs no one else dares touch. But a rescue op for a VIP goes sideways when you find she's not who she seems. Yasuhiko's space opera is pure 80s anime. It leaves you wanting to join the Crushers, no questions asked.
