Angel's Egg

Red pill me on Angel's Egg. Was this just an artsy anime with long drawn out scenes or did I witness the meaning of life?

It's some Christfag director's story about his struggle with faith and some other nonsense. So it's just garbage that looks pretty.

Ugh. Is that it? It had nice gothic buildings and stuff though.

I thought maybe the eye represented consciousness and the dude who smashed the egg was desperately trying to end it only to get schooled by the floating eye with a new addition at the end.

That's not garbage then. It's somebody's personal, individual story brought to life.

Fear not the Dark, my friend, and let the feast begin

Fuck off with this reddit lingo.

How mentally childish can you be?

It's Sup Forums lingo, actually, even long before r/The_Donald took over it.

Wikipedia says "Oshii himself has stated he does not know what the film is about."

it was boring af

i always thought bloodborne and angel's egg felt similar.

It's still retarded.

same thing as pepe, reddit ruined it.

Why so many newfags are making so much threads about Angel's Egg all of sudden? What, are Evangelion and Madoka no longer """deep""" enough for their anime club?

The Ringed City in Dark Souls 3 has a direct reference to Angel's Egg. Apparently it was a big influence on the game.

First thread about Angel's Egg since Sunday dude.

The fishermen casting spears at shadows of leviathans was a fun scene. Felt very much like a parable with a meaning that was just out of reach.

It's a crpytic Christian allegory and is quite interesting.

I'm sorry that your brain can't handle critical thinking.

No you're not

Is it confirmed that that was a reference? I thought it was extremely similar but if it was actually a reference that's pretty cool

stop failing newfag

It's really beautiful

It's a story about losing faith in God. The shadow of a fish that's not there has do to with a fish being an old Christian symbol, the giant eyeball hovering above the ocean is God, the entire film takes place on Noah's Ark(In universe it's more that they've been abandoned by God, but the story is meant to be atheist in nature), the man carrying the technological cross represents the cold, nihilistic reality of the universe, the girl with the egg represents an ignorant and innocent belief in God, the man breaks the egg to show that her beliefs were false, her becoming an adult as she falls into the river represents her maturing as a person after learning the painful truth. This movie was made by Mamoru Oshii, a man who grew up Christian and considered becoming a priest, but by the time of making this film was an Atheist.

You aren't.

Or it can be Oishi's work based on reading to much Nietzsche and being to egoistic

From what I understand, it's pretty heavily hinted that a scene in Dark Souls 3 is a reference to Angel's Egg, so a lot of people are only discovering it right now.

What I find incredibly funny is that it's only because of "lore experts" and the type, on Youtube, explaining it as such by which the belief of it being purely a reference to Angel's Egg has originated. My first thought, on seeing the scene in question, was Angel's Egg as well - simply due to an aesthetic similarity. But, within less than 10 seconds, I realized that it has nothing to do with Angel's Egg. The community has failed to recognize this in any significant way because anyone who detracts from the mass theory is shunned.

It's literally just the tamatebako. Not even "the tamatebako if they changed it to be like ____", it is *just* a direct outline/skeleton of the myth.

At the broadest point of inclusion, Angel's Egg may take inspiration from the legend but bears little resemblance to it in structure or content. The game's event bears strict conformity to the myth in both.

But, because 'Youtubers' are more familiar with anime than Japanese children's stories, people will continue to watch their videos, hear the title "Angel's Egg", and come to anime discussion sites to talk about how Dark Souls 3 references its content (without having even watched it!) and how it's such a trippy movie whooahh.
