I still can't get over it. Divine talent taken so early in such a horrid way. The pancreatic cancer murdered Kon in mere months, and he was so malnourished and ill he refused to show himself in public in those last months.
Hot take: his films would be better if they were live action. They're great despite being anime, not because of it.
He never made a good movie, tragically.
His movies are all all technically brilliant, particularly the editing. But they're all incredibly dull to watch.
>>217024723He's probably somewhere in the Maldives with billions in bitcoin dude.
>>217024723That cancer type is usually found in terminal stage. Was he a smoker? Tokyo Godfathers is clumsy tho
>>217024723May he rest in piece.That being said, I don't care for his movies at all. Millennium Actress made me lose any interest in his work.
>>217026904Yeah it's not good at an emotional link to the classic films being referenced.
>>217026904*peaceffs
none of his movies are actually good. like, at all. I don't know why they are as popular as they are. not in some contrarian way, I'm astonished and confused. marketing? scarcity of films in the medium while that's what westerners were grasping for? would explain the popularity of a few mediocre ghibli films too ig
>>217024723His movies are really bad. You have to be partially retarded to watch and enjoy his slop as an adult.
