The short film/ova was great one of my favorites. I haven't read any of the manga yet but I'm downloading the TV shorts and will probably read through them once I've watched em all.
Brayden Robinson
Meant to bump the thread but forgot I had autosage on, sorry.
Aiden Jones
Just letting you know the TV shorts are completely different from the OVA
Samuel Clark
The backstory behind the author is a little disturbed, but probably no less than the manga.
Gabriel Foster
I expected as much, thanks for the heads up though.
Colton Smith
Didn't she like abuse her husband and all that? I mean combined with her suicide and what she wrote about, I think she might've had some serious personality disorder.
Joseph Martin
Nekojiru-sou was the thing that got me into anime, and still one of my favorites. Not a big fan of Nekojiru Gekijou though.
Aiden Howard
>Nekojiru Gekijou
But that's the original user.
Sebastian White
I know, but I watched Nekojiru-sou first and prefer its imagery.
William Moore
>prefer its imagery
So essentially you prefer the pretentious version?
Juan Gutierrez
Pretty much, less cruelty and gore too.
Chase Bailey
But that's the whole charm of nekojiru.
Samuel Rivera
>nyako's claw as a middle finger
I love it

I thought the short movie was kinda boring but I like ougi.
Nolan Murphy
I watched cat soup once and hated it
Owen Walker
Why?
Levi Johnson
she killed herself
Christopher Roberts
He was probably scared.
Wyatt Butler
Apparently the author wrote in her will to play SAW Volume II at her funeral.
Colton Cooper
Ran in front of a fucking train.
Shit is so metal.
Jason Williams
It was boring
Luke Johnson
Luis Butler
I don't recall the name but I've seen those characters before.
David James

I know the movie means absolutely nothing and that it's only partially based on the manga by a bit of plot and that's it, The imagery is wang.
But I always cry at the end credits watching how they repeat and interrupt again and again at the tune. I remember reading that the credits were an ode to the only time NekojiruY watched his wife genuinely happy, on a beach trip they had years ago.
Also, rare dvd comentary.

but it does mean something
it's a tribute to the author. not necessarily by aping the manga's style and approach but by attempting to get at the essence of nekojiru from a different viewpoint.
Adrian Ward
Ah I wish Yuasa was on that commentary as well.
Joshua Lee

Leo Ramirez
I'm convinced the guy who created Shin Chan killed himself, and made it look like an accident.
Logan Peterson
>I know the movie means absolutely nothing
Isn't that kind of the undercurrentof Nekojiru stuff in general, a sense of meaninglessness?
>The imagery is wang.
?
Robert King
More like the Japanese media covered it up, to save face.
Robert Evans
I loved the nekojiru animation shorts. The innocent cruelty is disturbing, yet adorable.
I thought the film is actually really beautiful. I can tell they were heavily inspired by the Pink Floyd "Wall" film, and the story/art direction feels like one big acid trip. The soundtrack is great as well.
