The Crow and anime really isn’t such a strange combination. Both share dark imagery, big emotions, dramatic style, and characters who rarely have just a quiet Tuesday. The anime design gives Eric Draven’s gothic universe a new visual expression, but retains the film’s melancholy, vengeance, and almost cartoon-like intensity. It fits pretty well with a story about love, death, and a man who returns with a very concrete list of things to set straight. A The Crow T-shirt for fans of the cult film, gothic style, and anime-inspired graphics. It can't rain all the time. But the movie makes an impressive attempt. Nerdshop tip: If Eric Draven’s vengeance saga gets an anime intro, don’t skip the opening song. He has spent both a life and a death to get that dramatic entrance.
