I do appreciate that her hand motion of drying a wineglass is vaguely reminiscent of how she made street pizzas

repiv posted:that gold ball that shows up twice in the OP doesn't actually appear in S1 huh The whole OP is a mishmash of foreshadowing and symbolism that only manga readers will get, but also crucially a bunch of cool movie references and an elaborate dick and balls joke.The bowling scene (referencing the big lebowski) and the giant ball scene (referencing fight club) are both golden balls, or kintama, slang for testicles in Japanese, and halfway between these two scenes there's a boner joke with denji's Chainsaw erecting from his head.

Makima seems like someone who wouldn't care one way or another about what she wears as long as it was practical for her work; it'd take an elaborate set of circumstances for it to occur, but she'd act like nothing is different.

hbag posted:if fujimoto was really a movie guy he'd make denji say "groovy" He actually talked about that in interviews. He likes Evil Dead, but the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was more of an influence for him. Interesting note there? In Japan, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was released as "Devil's Sacrifice", while in Italy it was titled "Don't open that door".

great season, loved the passion on display. the small bit with power in the elevator idly fiddling with the fingers on the dismembered arm felt like it was the best visual gag of the past year. i can hardly wait for the next season.Snowglobe of Doom posted:MAPPA uploaded the OP and all the EDs together in one Youtube video for handy access man, it still is incredible to me that they did 20 minutes for the op/eds for a single cour. just 4 cour's worth of material because they could Julias posted:The whole OP is a mishmash of foreshadowing and symbolism that only manga readers will get, but also crucially a bunch of cool movie references and an elaborate dick and balls joke.The bowling scene (referencing the big lebowski) and the giant ball scene (referencing fight club) are both golden balls, or kintama, slang for testicles in Japanese, and halfway between these two scenes there's a boner joke with denji's Chainsaw erecting from his head. yeah, it doesn't come through as much in this series, but it can't be emphasized enough how into movies (in both a pop culture and artistic sense) fujimoto is and how that shows up in his work. at this point it's almost self-parody

GhostofJohnMuir posted:
He did a whole manga 'shot' with a cell phone camera*. Fujimoto's commitment to cinematic techniques is remarkable. *Well, the last scenes of Goodbye Eri aren't taken by the camera. But to talk about those is telling. Also, just did a couch comparison. It is more decayed in the final scene than it was when Yuta went to the abandoned building as a teenager. Another point for Eri being a vampire.

Like all the comments said, Junji Ito's rockin' the ukelele. Also is there info or confirmation on when more CSM anime's coming? I feel like I missed the memo somewhere about this all being just a half season and that somewhere there's like an unspoken but obvious fact about when they're making more and when it'll be released and only I didn't hear about it again.
