This sci-fi road journey is set in the near future (1999--six years after the film was initially released). Human civilization has been devastated by a mysterious wind that erased everyone's memories--even the basics of language and self-care that real amnesia doesn't affect. Their minds wiped clean, the survivors haunt the ruined cities, scavenging for food. Wateru ("traveler" in Japanese), whose mind was laboriously restored by a survivor at a government research facility, wanders through America in a jeep, trying to bring knowledge to people. In San Francisco, he meets Sophia, a mysterious woman with unexplained powers; she joins him on a journey to New York that turns into a transcontinental escape from a murderous and seemingly indestructible robot. Along the way, they encounter the members of a cult that worships an enormous wrecking machine, and two puppetlike survivors in an fully mechanized city. Wateru struggles to fulfill his mission to start people on the long journey back to civilization, but he often has to rely on Sophia's extraordinary powers of communication. A Wind Called Amnesia is more thoughtful and less violent than most anime features; unfortunately, it ends on a weak, unsatisfying note. Rating: 16 and older for animated sex and some violence. --Charles Solomon

Don't you absolutely HATE it when you find a movie online with an absolutely irresistible plot that's almost too amazing to be bad, and then see it only to realize the person who made it had no artistic talent whatsoever? I don't know about you, but it happens to me a lot, and all I can think when finished is how much better I could have made it.
A Wind Named Amnesia is one of those kinds of movies. Set in 1999, six years after the movies original release, humanity has been completely ... Read More

This DVD is not for Kids. I did not like it at all. There are too many violences and adult scenes.

This is one of those movies that you don't quite realize how good it is until it's over and you can't stop thinking about it. It really stays with you. What if everyone lost their memories? It captures a fragment in time very well. It's not meant go into details about every character or tell you the whole story. A lot is left to the imagination. I thought it ended how it should, I didn't feel cheated. You have to think. During the slow points in the film it can be amusing to think things like, gosh ... Read More

In the late 1990's, the Amnesia Wind swept over the entire Earth, and all at once nearly every man, woman and child on the planet forgot EVERYTHING. They forgot who they were and who their families were. They forgot how to speak their languages and operate their machines. They forgot their art and their music, their literature and their philosophy. In an instant, all of mankind's accumulated knowledge was quite literally gone with the wind; and they were reduced to primitive savages, governed only ... Read More

What can I say, it was 'okay.' I don't know that I'd describe it as the 'masterpiece' some have claimed it to be. But, on the other hand, it's better than some other anime schlock I've seen recently. Somehow, the end seemed anti-climactic and a bit 'odd' (aside from the nudity that didn't really appear to serve any purpose, which was also odd fan-service in my opinion).
The story itself was interesting enough, and the animation was alright. It was an overly-action oriented story (there was ... Read More
