I don't keep up with a lot of current anime on here but I been a chainsaw man fan for a hot minute and MAPPA's adaptation had me like 😩 Very subtle but if you look hard enough you just might be able to tell who my favorite is from the three #chainsawman#akihayakawa#MAPPA
This is the anime style I truly miss.
Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Escaflowne, Oh My Goddess!, Samurai Pizza Cats, Dirty Pair, Bubblegum Crises, Ranma, Slayers, Agent Aika, Nuku Nuku, Serial experiments Lain, .Hack, Lupin 3rd, Ghost in the Shell, and so many, many more.
Over the top expressions, detailed animations, fanservice, unfiltered topics - I miss these days.
I understand it's not for everyone, and some things haven't aged well, but just the art style alone is what I want to see return more than anything. Studios are showing they can bring it back!
So we’re just gonna ignore the phone call to the “customer support” number with Nikki screaming in some damned place making it clear her soul is not in her body?
Or the part where the entity is sleeping and Nikki tells Bear to kill her while “she’s sleeping,” meaning the entity was asleep and unable to stop her from breaking through for a few seconds; so the real Nikki was able to communicate with Bear through a sort of window.
Or or or how about the last 30 fucking seconds of the movie where she suddenly regains control of her soul and body??? The sound of her crying is more authentic than earlier in the movie, where the entity is trying to convey real sad emotions.
Do you people watch the movies and then just come up with your own opinions to help you push some bigoted bias? Bear ruined this girls life because he was a grade A fucking loser who didn’t know how to talk to women.
Nikki gave Bear the chance to be honest right before he made the wish and he chose to chicken out. He was too busy obsessing over a girl that never liked him the same way to not realize that Sarah was practically throwing herself at him. He could have had everything he ever wanted with Sarah.
“Bear didn’t force anything on her.” …. There was a point in the movie where Bear realized that Nikki wasn’t actually Nikki and chose to kept her as that version of “Nikki,” because he was too scared that she wouldn’t love her. He’s a bitch, well was a bitch.
If you think Nikki is the issue and not Bear… you might be the problem.
