I have no problem with Animatrix being left off. For one, it is a compilation of short films, and second not all of them are good. As for Ninja Scroll, you can easily remedy your oversight by putting it on the wildcard list and start the voting process over for the wildcard portion. I kinda have to agree with the person who said that leaving Ninja Scroll off negates the whole tourney.

Ok, I'll do something similar due to the overwhelming response to my leaving out Ninja Scroll.

Grave of Fireflies has earned it's way to Round 2 and will move on, however I'm going to do something I really dont like to do. I will repost the Wild Card match, sans GoF and with Ninja Scroll. GoF moves on automatically, and whichever film wins the new Wild Card moves on, and will create a Three-Way match in Round 2.

Happy?

woo whoo, thank you

I now will vote for beauty and the beast.

Just Kidding, my vote goes for Ninja Scroll of course.

The Sword in the Stone

I liked Ninja Scroll a lot (even the series (but Vampire Hunter D was better :P)), and B&B, but I have found memories of Sword in the Stone especially the magic battle.
