The general anime thread

McJongJing:
This is a general thread for anime.
For when you want to discuss something but you don't feel it warrants a whole new thread.

I just watched Paprika for the first time.
It was good, but I don't think I understood all of it.
Everyone was pulled into the same dream and had a shared hallucination right?
But who exactly was Paprika? Why was the lady able to suck up giant man at the end?

Ming:
I don't remember much about Paprika tbh

McJongJing:
I think Perfect Blue was better.
Paprika I don't feel like it really...explored anything?
I feel like they could have looked at the way that dreams could be manipulated for escapism.
Or something. I dunno.

Perfect Blue was memorable because it connected to the darker side of the idol business and the media and escapism and etc
Those were all things I could relate to. I can't relate to Paprika because I've never been trapped in a trippy simultaneous dream.

Or maybe I'm just a fucking idiot posting on a forum called anime princess island at three in the morning.

Ming:
Paprika does have Susumu Hirasawa though

McJongJing:
