This record reminds me more of Ugetsu Monogatari or Kwaidan though

Oooh welcome to a big and beautiful side of cinema, here are some other recs for oldschool jap flicks (besides the really obvious ones): Sword Of Doom, Hara Kiri, Woman In The Dunes, The Face of Another, Blind Beast, Funeral Parade Of Roses, Branded To Kill, High And Low, Gate Of Flesh and finally Eros + Massacre (beware, this last one is immensly rewarding/probs my fav jap movie but a tough find/watch).

Also seen as you seem to be a bit of a romantic I'll also rec two more recent cult classics that should very much please you: All About Lily Chou Chou as well as Eureka (Aoyama's one, another hard watch/find)

Enjoy!

The visuals are incredible, but the movie leaves out a lot from the manga if I recall (or the opposite, it's been a while)

if i recall correctly, the manga is long af so it's understandable



as a stand-alone piece however, it's good imo

yeah, and the budget for the movie probably wouldn't allow them to do the entire thing most likely

How is it defensive.

I mean if you seriously want to have a talk on the fetishization of a nation's culture and how the west approriates it, cool.

no one was fetishizing anything (don't think that's a word but fuck you), so calm down and talk about how good this album is but Mars 2027 kinda drags but it has that sick guitar part near the end that makes you think it's way better than it was
