Paprika (2006) 9/10

Starring : Megumi Hayashibara, Toru Furaya, Koichi Yamadera, Katsunosuke Hori
Director : Satoshi Kon
Running Time : 91 mins

When a piece of electrical equipment used by doctors to look at peoples dreams, called a DC mini, is stolen, people start to notice their dreams are interfering with their waking life and find their lives in terrible danger. As a small group investigate the phenomenon, they soon realise that the entire population are stuck in a waking dream and that the dreams are slowly taking over the world.

This is a highly imaginative piece of Anime which has all the imagination you could expect from any similar cartoon. The characters are full of life and the scenarios are so overwhelmingly alive with passion you can really tell that the animators just loved making this. Definitely worth the time to check out.
