Often recommended as a first anime experience, D was one of the first anime movies to get an American release. Vampire Hunter D is about- er, you know Blade? Same main character, essentially. He's a half-vampire who has to kill vampires with his sword. Only this half-vampire's right hand talks to him, and he lives in a post-apolacyptic world that looks lot like medieval Europe. D is dark, moody, and depressing- both the character and the film he's in. The whole adventure is a little forgettable, but it's a decent mix of genres from horror to sci-fi, and it's one of the easiest-to-find pieces of anime in the US. A staple of any collection.
