About Memories

Here is what Memories is about, retold in plain terms: an adventure, comedy and drama anime by MADHOUSE and Studio 4°C (1995). At its core: Memories is a compilation of three standalone short films encompassing different genres. Magnetic Rose — a science fiction tale that tells a chilling story of love, loss, and the unwillingness to forget.

More of the story: Stink Bomb — a tongue-in-cheek story of a chemical researcher who is just looking for a way to get rid of his cold... so why is everybody around him dying? Cannon Fodder — an introspective tale about modern wars and simply following orders.

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Heintz Beckner (Tsutomu Isobe) and Miguel Costrela (Kouichi Yamadera) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. The run is 3 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
