[Anime Classics]

Release Info

Released in 1994. Produced by Toei Animation.

Plot Summary

The world is overrun with annoying, troublesome ghosts and monsters of lore. To get rid of them, people hire battle-ready exorcists known as Ghost Sweepers. The story focuses on Mikami, a powerful (and greedy) Ghost Sweeper. She faces her biggest challenge yet, as the world’s most powerful vampire is resurrected and wreaks havoc on the city.

My Thoughts

I love this movie. It’s silly and cartoony. Even though the movie focuses on comedy, it actually has some pretty awesome battles. It’s strange that despite the Ghost Sweeper Mikami anime series never being released in North America, they released this movie anyway.

Buy From Amazon

You can buy this movie from Amazon. It goes for around $20-100 (US).

Notes

• If you don't know what torrents are, YouTube has tutorials. Be mindful that torrent downloads aren't instant. Depending on your Internet speed and number of seeds, it could take up to 24 hours for an anime to download.
• If you need a torrent client, these are the best (they're all free).
• The majority of video downloads from Nyaa are in “MKV” format, and less commonly in “AVI”. If you need a good video player to play these formats, VLC Media Player is the best (and it's free). It's available on every OS, including iOS and Android.

Is the MKV too big?

If you download a large Blu-ray quality MKV from Nyaa, it is possible that your computer or phone/tablet isn't fast enough to play it at full speed. In this case, you can use HandBrake. It's a free video converter; use it to shrink down the video. If you need help using HandBrake, YouTube has tutorials. Another option is to use Plex (mentioned below) because it automatically downsamples large videos when it streams them to your TV.

Playing on your TV

The easiest way to play MKV and AVI videos on your TV is with Plex. It streams movies from your computer to your TV through your Wi-Fi. It's a free app. Install it on your Windows or Mac, then install it on your set-top box (Apple TV, Roku, Fire sticks, etc.). Just note that Plex will only detect these movies in an Other Videos library because the “Movies” library doesn't detect rare/obscure anime classics. If you need help, YouTube has tutorials.
