I like science fiction movies and series of all kinds, as long as the story is good. In the past I watched one or two Japanese science fiction movies and remember that I liked them very much (I don't remember the titles, though).

Do you have any recommendation about Japanese science fiction movies and TV shows that you consider good? Thank you.

Have you ever watched Yojimbo and Sanjuro?

It's a core influence on a lot of Japanese cinema. It's such a big deal that Hollywood by way of Spain with Italian direction turned it into basically the best western trilogy.

I remember being a kindergartener running home from the bus to be on time to watch Star Blazers. I loved it. It's a fun story with 1970s style.

Lupin III is one of my other favorites.
