would you Cham?
>>288574474Left, please.
>>288574474i dont like used things so none, also they had to make the "bad dude" ugly, otherwise people could have aggreed with him.
>>288574737How could you even agree with a wota? They're the shame of Japan
>>288574474I love the English version of angel of love
>>288574474Recently rewatched it and was surprised how long the acted rape scene keeps going. Blessed be Kon's memory, rightfully regarded as one of the true greats.
>>288574474I always found funny that idolshit is portrayed as a decadent genre only followed by weirdos but the same year the movie was released, Morning Musume revitalized the idol genre and became a national sensation. Idolshit is cyclical, it has periods of stagnation and periods of bloosoming. Arguably we're on a period of stagnation right now
>>288574910>idolshit is portrayed as a decadent genre only followed by weirdosThat's a timeless criticism that gets leveled against idolshit in every era, whether it's on a downturn or an upswing. Also keep in mind that although Cham's manager claims the idol market is oversaturated, the duo becomes successful halfway through the movie anyway.
>>288575049But the idol genre was generally viewed as lame and passe during the movie production. It was viewed as a remain from the bubble that refused to die
>>288574753That quote is obviously taken out of context. Like most misleading images it works by providing extremely limited information while presenting it in ways that encourage questionable interpretations (in this case, it's to reinforce the already familiar stereotype that wota are creepy and predatory old guys). The look on the girl's face for example, could be interpreted as a scared expression but is actually very hard to discern given that on Japanese TV it is customary for guests to provide heightened reactions to everything. That is to say nothing of his unfortunate looks, which strongly biases the viewer against a favorable interpretation of the man's words. Go ahead and post the full video in which he said this and I guarantee your impression will change.
>>288574737>him.
>>288575131That may be so, but the stereotype of the creepy loser obsessing over idols has never died. Although the movie does have an undercurrent of the idol biz seemingly being past its peak, it's not so clear cut. Hence Perfect Blue can still resonate today. It takes a cynical perspective on showbiz in general and there will always be a substantial number of people who agree fully that the showbiz is irredeemably rotten.
>>288575517showbiz and idols was not the main point of the movie at all.
>>288574474There is something deeply depressing to sing happy songs in almost empty hall for otaku
>Mima's acting career
>>288574474>one of the only anime girls shown with canonical pubes
reminder that PB is not a commentary on idolshit culture, that's just western critics projecting their disdain.
>>288574474>adult sized idorusold hat actually. now we want U149 lolis.
