Thanks for the recommendations.
Tried watching Appleseed series a while back on youtube, not my thing, not quite there. The other two look like a run-of-the-mill quirky action anime to my filthy gaijin eyes. Lain was too much for me, I watched the whole thing, but it's all a blur of conflicting concepts and unreliable storytellers. Kaiba looks like Neverhood, but I hate it already.
It's not so much the police action that I'm looking for as is low fantasy or futuristic, down-to-earth setting with a hint of philosophy. It's the exploration of different ideas that I'm looking for the most. I can't read worth shit, even if it's a good book, it'll take me over a month to get through a 200 page novel. So my best bet is, to my own surprise, fucking anime. Most of hollyjew productions are run of the mill as well, same old predictable scenarios and act structure.
Maybe just some soldier drama will do the trick, I liked the tired characters of Black Lagoon and bounced around Jormungand.
Is Girl's Last Tour any good? I'm willing to ignore the art style if it's quality content otherwise.
