Actually took J70 The class was quite interesting to me. The workload was not that hard as weekly assignments could be done quickly in about 10-15 minutes after you watched a movie. The readings were at times dry but the films were inspiring. The professor showed an obvious passion for the subject and it was quite refreshing. Take this class, I quite enjoyed it.

Fall 2017 - This class is a pretty easy GE and it's actually really interesting. You have two films to watch every week, but if you already watch anime, you've probably already watched the film. For example, some films that you watch are Princess Mononoke, Tokyo Godfather, and Kimi no na wa. There's a short paragraph due every week about the film where you can talk about what you observed, but only the top five paragraphs are actually counted into your grade, so it's easy. There's a couple of short readings, mostly in the beginning of the quarter, and sometimes he has pop quizzes so you have to read them. There's no midterm or final, just two papers. Overall, this class is super relaxed and brings a new light to anime. Also, the professor is really fun and enthusiastic about what he teaches.
