First episode was good and it was a visual tour de force. A lot of the imagery relies on traditional japanese folklore which is a given do to the kappas, but theres also kamaitachi. The music fits with the imagery. The screenwritting feels more like Penguindrum. Like there is an internal monologue that happens at the start of the episode that gets turned on its head when you get more information, except unlike penguindrum the payoff happens on the same episode instead of near the end of the series. Like seriously watch the episode again after you are done and notice how everything changes. I think the basic theme so far is "Dont hide who you are" similar to Yurikuma. And also similarly, its incredibly gay.

It could go either way, Penguindrum made it look like Kanba had some feelings that werent right for his sister but then the show spun that around in a completely different direction. Whereas Yurikuma was always physical and sexual in nature. I seriously doubt Kazuki's desire/connection is physical in nature. Enta definitely has the hots for Kazuki though

The emphasis on circles, loops, the contrast in love and desire, I think there is more to the name than just kappa related stuff

coronatae posted:What surprised me about the stinger was that they actually showed the kiss itself. I was thinking about it as compared to Yuuri on Ice where they didn't explicitly show lips locking but implied it as hard as they could. But here it's ok because he's dressed as Sara. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but I also don't know Japanese censorship laws. Yurikuma waited till the very end but it had the girls kiss and it lasted a whole lot longer than that

The cops are related to Sara and it just happens that whatever she deems lucky in an episode is seemingly targeted by the cops.

quote:Ikuhara also mentioned with a laugh that he was surprised that nobody in the staff stopped him. "Even as I was telling people, 'This is how we're doing this,' I was thinking, 'Okay, somebody is definitely going to call me out on this.' But nobody did. What a lad

it might just be a pun. Otter - Kawauso. River lie? Kappa itself is a portmanteau of river child Also if you hear the cop song, they remove the wa sound from kawauso in the end part going Kauso-iya!

The otters themselves were more like trickster spirits, not really violent like kappas were. The rolls are reversed in this case, the protagonists are playing the yokai thats usually seen as very violent while the apparent villains are playing the generally harmless one.

coronatae posted:God I hope next episode follows through with the kidnapping/switch at the meet and greet. That might be a part of it but there is probably more to it. If Haruka is even more hosed up than he appears to be, like dying, then it could be that Kazuki is reminded and finds it painful to connect as his brother. Keeping his distance might be a sort of a defense mechanism.

Really liked the visuals this episode. When Kazuki's granpa tells him the BIG SHOCKER the people in the room all shifted from normal to background characters. I noticed how distant he was with his family the first time they showed up but wasnt really expecting that to be the case. A kid his age will be pretty lost if that was thrust on him. Heavy poo poo, feels like an inverse of one of Penguindrums main points. The scene immediately after with the flickering light evoking a slasher film was hilarious and a huge emotional whiplash Cao Ni Ma fucked around with this message at 21:13 on May 9, 2019 |

Azza Bamboo posted:As with Utena, they always put the biggest mysteries after the credits. Its actually more answers than mysteries. Thats almost 100% the kappa prince, its also what Reo wants for his endgame, the question that it raises is whether Keppi is the love half or the desire half. Its a loving lot like Penguindrum with Momoka . Cao Ni Ma fucked around with this message at 22:34 on May 16, 2019 |
