Ikuhara even stated Lynch as one of his influences, although I do think Kon is a better fit.

Unfortunately, I'll have to agree with this user. I have never seen an anime resemble Lynch's amazing and quirky style.

Yeah because none of Kyoko Okazaki's manga have anime adaptations.

Ask again when we can see how much he's declined as a director when the new Twin Peaks starts next month.

Why are you so pessimistic?

I'm actually hyped as hell and this is just my way of tempering expectations

Ikuhara is more of a Tim Burton than a David Lynch.

i am technically hype as fuck but can also see the inevitable disappointment coming from a mile away

when will this horrible rebootmania end?

Who is the Uwe Boll of anime?

Who is the Truffaut of anime?

Lynch's style is to pick a singular emotion and do his best to evoke it within the audience, with no real regard to what that means for character, plot, or theme. I'm not sure there's a good equivalent in any medium.

Momaru Oshii for sure.
He might of been an influence, along with Godard and Bergman.
