I was listening to the commentary from the Animatrix documentary on Animie. I can't remember who mentioned this, one of the directors or producers of the shorts, but in discussing animie, a lot of people immediately notice that a lot of these films involve post apocalyptic themes. The point made was that Japan is the only post apocalyptic society on the Earth. They had atomic bombs dropped on them, and the survivors are the genius talents behind a lot of the best animie films. I am ashamed now that I can't remember this particular artist, because I returned the tape, but one of the animie films I saw years ago was about a boy who survived Hiroshima.
