Any strange/interpretive artistic stuff like pic? Just watched it and, while the actual story leaves more to be desired, the art direction and atmosphere was interesting
I hear Boku no Pico is like this
Night on the Galactic Railroad 1985
Belladonna of Sadness.I'm not recommending it because i think it's good..... but it does fit the description of strange and artistic.
>>214409141*Oh and probably the series Count of Monte Cristo. AKA Gankutsuou.
>>214408148Memories, specifically the Magnetic Rose arc
>>214409207That's good but it's pretty bog-standard scifi in terms of its story and presentation.
Happy Machine
>>214408148Check out Ruin Explorers OVA from the late 80s OP
>>214409236well art isn’t all about allegory and interpretation, the entire trio are gorgeously presented. OP specifically mentioned art direction and atmosphere, which all 3 have in spades.
>>214408148The Holy Mountain
>>Angel's EggA friend told me he heard they were releasing it in US theaters in November to promote the 4k remaster. He said he knew I was the only person he knew who talked about it. Not to mention that I cosplayed it (pretty badly) back in college.
>>214409659I mean personally I learned about it because Princess Filianore from The Ringed City was designed after the girl, and I just remember how striking I thought the girl looked with her white hair against the black backgrounds. I can definitely see the similar themes between the two tho with the breaking of the egg leading to their deaths and the shattering of the "dream", all taken place in a sunken city at the end of the world. A very interesting idea, id say
>>214409659>>214411078This being Filianore btw
>>214408148Go back to /a/
Ascension 2002
>>21440938390s animation really was peakthis has so much soul and actually looks tangible unlike flat digital animation
>>214412217And Subconscious Cruelty
Paranoia AgentTatami GalaxyKaibaJunji Ito stuffVampire Hunter D bloodlustAnimatrix feels like a fever dream
>>214412268While its weird to say, the feeling I got from Angel's Egg was similar to that of The Last Unicorn. Obviously no vocals, but the dreary and empty landscapes were similar
This was greatEach of the eras have a very distinct artstyle and vibe, it's quite entertaining to watch, the voice acting is also fantastic
Siberia
Picnic at hanging rock
Mad God
>>214408148Top-tier anime and one of mah first anime. U may also like Lain, Texnolyze, or Paranoi Agent.
>>214414327this shit is pretty disturbing, damn
>>214409187Fuck yeah, that was cool.
>>214409207Easily the best of anime.
>>214415445it’s certainly up there! I have a lot of “best of” anime suggestions but Memories is definitely among them. the animation and energy in Stink Bomb is astounding
>>214414327Reminds me of that m dot strange film, like the left rights music video.
>>214409141>>214414327These are weird, but great. Huge fan of Angel's Egg too.
>>214408148Stalker
>>214409207Magnetic Rose is really good.
Spirited Away.No, I'm not joking. The moment I understood that movie I was blown away.
>>214409659https://gkids.com/films/angels-egg/yeah they are, though no dates yet afaik
>>214409187Will probably forever be the most AESTHETIC anime ever. And absolutely fantastic. And the definitive best Count adaptation (downgrade on the ending though)
>>214408148pic related
>>214408148Son of a White Mare. Pretty straightforward mythological story with A-B-C kind of plot, but cool and surreal 1970's animation tricks.
