SOMEWHERE in our childhood or perhaps, in the quiet stretch of adolescence, anime lived in the background of our youth, like a strange world glowing in the dark, a story slowly unfolding through art.

WHEN the sun sets, and the solar panels fall silent, and when the wind slows, and turbines stand still, a different kind of power quietly steps in.
