If you loved Locke the Superman, try Battle Angel
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 Hiroshi Fukutomi, and they sit in Animation / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Locke the Superman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Battle Angel is
You're Gally, a cyborg rebooted in a junkyard. Hunter-healer Ido gives you a body. But your memory's gone, combat skills awakened. A dark future looms. Rogues rule the streets. Fukutomi's anime, adapted from the manga, pulses with kinetic energy. It leaves one hoping for a future that learns from its past.
