Wow... Future Boy Conan marked the directorial debut of Hayao Miyazaki, and it was an instant classic. It has all the ingredients of a perfect anime show: Great characters, meaningful story, excellent animation and superb direction. It is also a perfect example of how an anime show can be great without the use of flashy characters or techno-gadgets. What won our hearts instead in this show are the good old virtues of kindness, bravery, friendship, loyalty and trust. In the aftermath of a war fought by magnetic weapons which caused massive earthquakes, a young and spunky boy naned Conan gets involved in a grand adventure. Conan lives in a world that is mostly oceans; the major land masses having been destroyed by the weapons of the great war. He meets a young girl named Lana, and they eventually foil the plans of the city-state of Industria which wants to regain the lethal weapons. This 1979 26-episode liberal adaptation of Alexander Key's "THE INCREDIBLE TIDE" has been described as director Hayao Miyazaki's prototype for this later film "Laputa: Castle in the Sky".
