Why Perfect Blue is Terrifying

you spelled avatar wrong

Also Darren Aronofsky plagiarized the hell out of Satoshi and sidestepped any allegations of plagiarism every time anyone questioned him, because Black Swan is a rip off of Perfect Blue.

This movie is remind me of none of this is true

Me being scared of stalkers with my 10 subscribers: 😱

In u ask me then DON'T WATCH IT,ITS A SUFFERING,I SWEAR.

Best psychological thriller ever.
Perfect blue was way ahead of it's time.
Wish Satoshi kon were still alive. We could've got many more masterpieces from him. Gone too soon

It’s also Yolanda-Selena, and many other unfortunate duos.

So that's where Oshi no ko took it's inspiration from...

Extremely overrated and terrible anime!

Interesting…

Good video! Subbing ❤

For me the scariest thing was that mema had to go trough all of this ALONE. All that pain and questions and no one seems to care. And the one person who actually kinda cared about her turned out to be the root of her suffering. This definetly reflects mental illness the best, when you're sick it seems like no one else is. You are alone.

What was so wild to me was seeing her ENTIRE fan base were weird men.

Wowzer. This video is documentary worthy. When you said that you were 12 first time seeing Perfect Blue, I immediately thought the same thing as I was nearly that age as well when I saw it. I also never understood it to it's full extent being so young at the time, however the more I watch it and the more I see how things develop in the world, the more it makes sense to me. I also thought that this film had crazy predictions at times but thought of them as coincidental. Satoshi Kon was a master director and it's sad that he passed a while back as I can only imagine what other fantastic films he could have brought for the world to see

Aa

The film is truly unsettling, but the fact that you were only 12 when you first saw it makes it even more unsettling.

So does the perfect image show's are avatar as are fake identity or a false image because knowing to it
Writing thinks down of what we come up with smart student's become scholars,mathematians,engeneers,and scientists and athelits become olympic champions so does it prove of who become's of them there likely isolating there trueselves of there false image.

when I watched perfect blue I felt like I was tripping on balls

This was such a good analysis of this amazing film, you earned my sub in one video. - your regards, a high AuDHD who was very engaged (a truly impressive feat.)

Just watched for the first time -2024 perfect blue is a masterpiece! The transitions and timing was crazy !!!
Stay true true to yourself people!!

😒 Hmph. You think THIS is terrifying, ever seen Barefoot Gen? How about Belladonna Of Sadness?

I knew this story was very similar to the situation with Bjork!

Sinead O Connors voice is million times better than hers.

I only watched Paprika before and it was too much for me. But i had heard about Perfect Blue here and there before. I'm caught between feeling daunted and fascinated.

Beautiful piece of art

at the start of the film i wasn't sure if the creepy guy was a red herring or not

watching this 7 years later makes all of this even more sureal

My buddy came to stay with me after we graduated HS in 91 and brought a copy of Akira with him figuring I might be into it (early 80’s LA we had Robotrech on TV). It’s one of those moments that I can only compare to 1st listening to Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd, or the 1st time you saw The Matrix. Nothing was the same after that.

This dudes voice is cringe

I just realized that Mr. Mimaniya is a play on words. It's a combo of Mima and Mania. Mr. Mima Mania. Maybe that's his username in the website Mima's Room, and he actually likes to go by that IRL. Or maybe it's just Kon giving us an easter egg. It's such a perfect little nod to the themes of this movie, the blending together of reality and fiction, identity and avatar, yet it hides in plain sight just like the killer does/sounds like an actual japanese name so we can't really tell if it was intentional or not just like we can't really tell if Mima's sadistic avatar is just her hallucinating or if it really did come to life and possess Rumi.

I've never seen such an accurate and terrifying dipiction of what losing your mental health is actually like. The fear and terror that this movie invokes in me is always overwhelming. But it's not a scary movie, in the sense of what dumb kids think a scary movie is. There's maybe 1 jump scare. Kids think that being startled is equal to being scared. It's not at all. We should start calling them jump startles instead of jump scares because they almost never actually do more than startle us and never actually scare us. Kids don't know the difference and that's why when they hear stuff like "The Shining is the scariest movie ever," and then they watch it and don't the startles they were expecting, they think it's not scary. They're too inexperienced and overconfident and arrogant to understand the fear that these perfect horror movies invoke in you. If they've never known the fear of a panic attack and deteriorating mental health then they won't find this that scary because they have no frame of reference, they don't know what it's like. That paranoia that's ALWAYS there, never ending, constantly eating away at your sanity every second of every day... Kids are so arrogant and overconfident that they will actually willingly sign up to go fight in a war, the most horrifying place ever. If actual war can't scare them, how can a horror film possibly scare them? But they think something like the fucking Babadook is scary, and we're watching it and laughing our asses off the whole time lol.

It’s crazy how actors can suffer an identity crisis after playing a whole bunch of characters. I mean, look at what happened to Austin Butler who played Elvis…he dug so deep into that character that he had trouble getting his original voice back. Same with Johnny Deep. Johnny Deep from right now doesn’t sound like the same Johnny from before, he talks with an accent similar to Jack Sparrow now.

Slayer - Season Of The Abyss: The Movie.

All seriousness, this is why you should seek mental help.

RIP Satoshi Kon. And funny thing is that 7 days before he died, my dad would commit suicide which almost be similar to what I just witnessed in this film. Life has a sense of Irony.

How is this six years ago I remember watching it when it was two days old

I remember getting a bootleg anime dvd for R10 back in the day and this movie was on there, 8 year old me had no idea what I was watching 😂🥲

I’ve watched it but I still don’t know what the name is perfect blue

this video - a masterpiece dude

which app or site do you use for text to voice

This should be made into a Netflix show adaptation

The scary thing about perfect blue it's just how real it is...

There is an idea of a Super Eyepatch Wolf

Perfect blue disturbs me so much tbh.

Your first 2 minutes reminds me of the beginners guide a bit
