I'm not a fool, and I watch films ALL THE TIME. I can figure anything out but this movie wasn't making a whole lot of sense to me. It ticks me off that I just bought it because it looked cool ONLY to find out that there's not much of anything you can call a real cohesive plot.....Help me out guys, what's the deal? I loved the sweetness action but....PLOT. Plot is JUST as important...although I like Time And Tide and some people think that movie doesn't make any sense...I got it though. Help me please I REALLY want to understand this!!!!!

Well- I felt pretty disappointed with it myself, but there is an upside. Anyway- it made sense to me but it seemed to cut off in the middle of the story which really ticked me off. Then I did a little research- turns out that was the first installment of what I am lead to believe is a 6 part series. That is according to a whole bunch of anime news sites. I felt much better after learning that- hopefully you do too. :D

yea, the action was top notch but the story and characters are barely memorable.

[–] ghostintheshell_71 18 years ago

Well- I felt Nue was very memorable and the most interesting character. I am hoping they develop the others more in the coming episodes.

Ok! Now I've watched this film three times! After seeing it the first time it makes SO MUCH more sense in subsequent watches. I mean.....the film actually DOES make a lot of sense now! It's kind of complex....surprisingly enough but it DOES make complete sense. And yeah I learned that it was going to be part of a movie series AFTER I watched it as well. That helps out too. I just figured that it was all supposed to be self contained, and in that case the movie would've had a retarded ending. But it leaves you wanting to continue watching the next one that will come along! I can't wait, because after seeing this film three times, I LOVE IT! This series is gonna be REALLY cool!!!

I know what you guys feel, the first time I watched this I was extremely confused but after watching it a couple more times it all makes sense.

same with me. but about an hour in to the movie i figured that there wasn't enough time left in the movie to finish the story, and the title; karas:the prophesy, so i was pleases to hear about the six part thing from you guys. saved me looking around for more info.

love life!

Maybe you should watch it again, it made perfect sence to me.

you guys need to watch both parts. imdb doesnt list the second one(as of this posting).

part 2, they go more into the character building, less action to me.

you guys need to watch both parts. ... part 2, they go more into the character building, less action to me.

This is true. The reason you don't get the Prophecy that there are things that we see that don't get explained until the Revelation. Hence, you need to watch both parts (the series as a whole) in order to understand all of it.

imdb doesnt list the second one(as of this posting).

I don't get that. I wanted to look it up to verify a voice I recognized from other things, but couldn't because it's not here.

Edit: Nevermind about looking that up... Mary Elizabeth McGlynn played Tsuchigumo in both Prophecy and Revelation. Tsuchigumo just wasn't as prominent in the first as she was in the other (which is why I wanted to check Revelation instead).
