A great and timeless movie ruined by the amount of censorships caused by upper hands which resulted in a lot of plotholes in the final cut. I keep dreaming of an alternative universe where there was an uncut and remastered version of this movie re-released by another publisher like Criterion. What a sad way to lose such a classic and the media like this need to be persevered and kept safe.

I wish the movie itself was as perfect as the theme song
The most fucked up movie I've ever seen
Wow, I was literally out of words after this departure. I really enjoyed everything about this episode, including its symbolism. I also have this weird obsession with melancholic scenes that take place in rainy weather with a gloomy atmosphere which the characters look back at what they've reached so far. I also liked it when L said something shocking, they just muted the sound of rain for a few moments to make things more suspenseful, kinda like just what Yakuza 2 did at the time.
I admit, L was a character that I didn't give too much a damn about but despite that, his departure really left me unmotivated to continue watching the series because as Light himself mentioned: "It's no fun without Ryuzaki". If I wanted to give another comparison to a videogame, (Spoilers for FarCry 3 ahead) this situation would be like Vass's aftermath which made the game not as fun as before to continue.
"I'll take a potato chip... and eat it!"
The snow, the art of lighting, location and the set, plus the odd similarity of Gin with Kiryu’s face (mostly his eyes and his facial hair) and the situation he was in that forced him to be a yakuza again, reminded me of Yakuza 5.
Rebels of the Neon God is a thought-provoking gritty movie set in Taiwan that explores themes of alienation, loneliness, and rebellion in Taipei's urban setting. The story revolves around four young individuals who wander aimlessly through the city, searching for meaning and connection. I was intrigued by the film's ability to capture the essence and ambiance of Taipei in the early 1990s, with its vibrant neon lights, bustling arcades, lively karaoke bars, and congested traffic. The film also captures the frustration experienced by these disillusioned youth who feel trapped and adrift in a seemingly hopeless world very well. Also watching this piece of work needs a lot of patience so it might not be the best for everyone.
Don't be confused. It will just make it worse for me.
This is quite the opposite of the title so I'd like to call it Traumatic Time. The movie's a crime drama with a tale of brotherly love and much like Uncut Gems, it would cause you to stay on the edge of your seat. At first, I thought the movie was somewhat off, especially since I hadn't been exposed to OPN's music before, but I quickly realized that every choice in the creation of this movie had a very real and intelligent purpose for their presentation and it quickly became one of my comfort movies at the time. The more I think about it, the more I grow to love it. Also, the soundtrack is amazing so make sure to check out the Good Time... Raw album if you enjoyed it as much as I did.
I think the anime’s sequels/reboots, which some databases like Wikipedia and TMDB call seasons, were a mistake. Just watch the first season, ignore the rest of them and you'll have a good time.
Absolutely loved this mini show and there's quite nothing like it and if there is, it can't surpass this.
While being very disturbing and surreal, it sometimes offers some weirdly enough heartwarming and beautiful scenes (eg: robbery scene) thanks to the great acting and stunning selection of ambient or new age tracks. I admit there were some sketches that were out of date or controversial if you will but at the end of the day, it was a good watch and I absolutely recommend you to check it out if you're into "weird/mysterious art" and ambient genre.
I didn't expect a 85 minute BMW ad to be this engaging.
Such a perfect bittersweet ending. I think I absorbed enough FLCL so I won't watch the other seasons of it.
I'll sell a kidney for season 2.
A beautifully tragic story.
Slight spoilers ahead:
Although being disturbing and terrifying, this was a not a bad watch and it did a great job at depicting dissociation and depersonalization artistically. I personally think the mixture of reality and daydreams was a good method to make the viewers to be in shoes of the protagonist and feel her emotional struggles. Perfect Blue was also an interesting emotional roller-coaster with good pacing and the story itself is timeless, so as a result, it keeps you hooked.
Still, I have a mixed feeling about recommending this movie to a small percentage of people since it's very graphic, chilling and gets hard to understand at times for some people.
Edit: Small corrections on the sentence structure.
Superb special episode, I presume?
I know this has been mentioned a lot, but the car chases and stunts of this movie are out of this world.
Warning: This episode contains lots of contagious yawns.
That sudden change of the opening and the outro was really unexpected.
