Cool glasses.

I now know what I would look like if I was asian.

yeah right, dream on.

Homoeroticism and pterodactyl noises

He still needs to make a yaoi

Utena remake

Something about lesbians

I sure do fucking hope so. Maybe it just hits too close to home for him to focus a series entirely on Male homosexuality.

Who cares? It's Ikuhara, his anime can be about anything.
I'm just ready for more storyboard porn.

...

About some Gary Stu stalked by a hobo director

>next masterpiece
>next
what was the first one

carl marks

Gay men that turn into lesbians

As expected of the master.

Sacrifice

The industry being

Cute family photo

Penguindrum was 2-cour

>these days
And utena was 3 cour

I dunno MAPPA has done a significant amount of 2-cour stuff recently.

Something less melodramatic like Penguindrum and more dreamy like Utena

You wish, Anno.

A better question is where will he draw the most influence from?
>utena = princess knight
>penguindrum = night on the galactic railroad
>lesbian bears = ????

>lesbian bears = ????
Horror films like Suspiria and Psycho. And probably this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sankebetsu_brown_bear_incident

IKUHARA IS GAY?!?!!
WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!?!?

Not that user, but he's not married. I rather think he's probably bi though, because pic related.

>princess knight
Just looked this up. This looks like trash

>bi
Such a meme sexuality that does not exist. You're confusing it with asexuality most likely. And fourteen year olds don't know real love so that confession meant nothing. Probably confessed to her because she wore a frilly dress he wanted to put on or something equally non-romantic.

But how gay will it be?

shut the fuck up

thank you, captain tumblr.

convinced me you did not

Literally nothing tumblr about it dude. Stop being so in denial.

I'm not trying to convince you of anything? it's probably the most influential series on shoujo manga/anime.

>but it's influential
That's how I know you've nothing of value to say about the actual show. With that logic we should study his parents because they influenced how he came to be as-well. Why not watch a 24/7 first-person pov of Ikuhara! All that influence! See how retarded you sound? I hope you do.

>. Why not watch a 24/7 first-person pov of Ikuhara! All that influence! See how retarded you sound? I hope you do.

I would love to see that

He's married and has daughters tho IIRC

no need to get so heated, what I said is still true.

It doesn't tell me anything though. It's inherently worthless.

Threads back when yuribears started airing, so take it with a grain of salt.

It didn't seem like you were looking to learn anything in the first place, to be honest.

Then don't talk

No

This is what I mean. Just don't do it.

I said no thanks.

Then why do you keep doing it? You're just bumping my thread at this point. You're unintelligent you know that right?

>my thread
Nice try, this is my thread.

You're unintelligent. You know that right?

Why are you so rude?

I'm actually being kind, did you know that?

You're being rude, but you already knew that.

lololol
I know you are trolling, but I am a sucker.

actually, has Ikuhara written anything that has failed? I didn't like Yurikuma Arashi, but I also didn't finish it

I don't even know who he is to get the context of your reply. I actually don't even know if your dream on comment is a joke or if you're being serious, because I don't know how good looking or not good looking he actually is outside of this comical photo.

He just looks oddly like me in this photo.

Where can I read the interviews and/or DVD commentary? Does the Otori have it?

what does cour mean? seasons? or 13 episode chunks?

You're just unintelligent and yet you keep talking. Doesn't that make you the rude chick? Once you've said even one thing of value. Something even remotely intelligent. People will notice you.

Anno must be permanently butthurt

Stop being mean already.

Not your safespace.

Yes it is my safespace.

A "lurk more" isn't near enough for you, holy shit.

Purple is the color of the Duel Named Revolution. It is the antithesis of yellow, which is adoration. What is adoration? It is looking up to the object of one’s love, putting them on a pedestal, worshiping them, perhaps not even noticing how that degrades yourself. It is the princess, the Nanami, the one who plays by the rules and is accepted by society as “good,” no matter what she’s really like.

Purple is hate.

Purple is the witch.

Purple is what they’ve all been fighting for all along.

It is that which dwells in the castle.

It is something shining: the morning star, the deceptive beauty, the light which casts the shadow.

It is the power of miracles: the terrible sacrifice, the dark magic of blood and death.

It is something eternal: suffering that never ends.

It is the revolution of the world: the apocalypse.

Purple is the end of innocence. It is corruption and it is maturation. It is stasis and it is change. It is Da’at, the terrible black abyss that is nonetheless the path to enlightenment.

Purple is time.

Purple is putrefaction, the endless decay that endlessly brings forth life.

Purple is Anthy.

pretty sure that a person who has sex with both genders is the exact opposite of a person who has sex with none.

lurk more

no

you are deeply mistaken. even taking into account that the show is from the 60s

>I do not understand sexuality yet call people whom I do not know bisexual
Duly noted. Next time you try to sell your delusions as fact I'll be reminded you exist

Elaborate

why are fans so unkind to people who don't know as much as they do? did someone poop on your head when you asked a question? why is knowledge so precious that is has to be extracted with pain and suffering rather than... i don't know, just asking a question?

>Elaborate
Not him, but why does anyone need to prove anything to you? You either read the manga for yourself, or you don't.
Making a dumb surface-level criticism of something you know nothing about in the first place doesn't deserve engagement.

1 cour = between 10-14 episodes

>make a claim
>can't back it up
Thought as much.
>doesn't deserve engagement
So you were just shitposting. Got it. Have a last (You) then. Enjoy!

when something gets called "influential", especially by the creators who were influenced by it, that pretty much guarantees it's not trash. Even if it's flawed, or not as good as what came after, the fact that it sparked the imagination of so many excellent creators means that it deserves some kind of careful consideration. certainly more than just a quick Google search.

and, anyway, I have watched the show, so I know it's not trash. I am not telling you what to think, but I don't think you got a good sense of the show, if you care calling it trash so quickly

thank you. i assumed that's what it meant, but I have literally never seen that word before.

>that pretty much guarantees it's not trash
Nope. Strike one. You're out

>a claim
I never made a claim, I'm not even the user you were talking too.

are you the same guy who was throwing an autistic fit about children's anime in that miyazaki thread the other day?

bumping because Utena is one of the most beautiful works of art I have ever seen, and I like Ikuhara's chin

They're on reddit.

Where's the argument?

super annoyed that the Blu Ray box set has been delayed. all I wanted for Christmas was a Rose Signet ring

Here's another source. On tumblr.
louchan.tumblr.com/post/88691972837/ikuharas-episode-commentary-all-episode-posts-1

let it go. people have been patient and carefully explained things to that guy. he came into the thread to start shit.

Should I just have not replied to you then? since clearly you reply to my post yet aren't replying to the post I want you to reply to

I didn't like the movie much but the OST and the new design of Ohtori were fucking gorgeous.

>muh repeating the same sequence every episode
utena is a shitty show for pretentious post modernists

>has Ikuhara written anything that has failed?
>Yurikuma Arashi
why ask a question if you're going to answer it yourself

Something with lesbians probably.

Which successful work was actually influenced by Ikuhara's self-masturbatory nonsense?

Dunno man. I liked it.

I'm still gonnna buy the Blu Rays, anyway

not an argument
nobody cares if you like something of not

utena is more artistic. I hope he gets the budget to do something like end of utena again

but pengdruindrum is better overall. its fucking heartbreaking and has more time to delve into the characters.

I like the duelists but they each get so little time its hard to relate to them deeply. ironically nanami is probably the most sympathetic duelist

I thought Princess Knight was the influential one. I mean, I have no doubt that Utena inspired a lot of creators. It was part of the Post-Eva craze, though, so it's probably tough to point out anything specifically.

Princess Knight, on the other hand, either created, or revolutionized the Shoujo genre. I forget which. it inspired a ton of creators, not the least of which: Kunihiko Ikuhara

>postmodernism
nigger I hate faggots and niggers but if you overlook the gratuitous faggotry hten its not really very postmodern. liberal, yes, but he corrected that in penguindrum. pengruindrum is more or less reactionary, sasuga japan

You say that. But it doesn't seem that way.

why are you doing this? there is so much love and beauty in the world... why not go enjoy some of it? open yourself up to love, man

my favorite thing about the movie is that only half of it is real. it is all a metaphor for the changes happening inside the characters. the characters are real, and interacting, but the school, the duels, the Utenamobile, its all an illusion.

probably.

>there is so much love and beauty in the world... why not go enjoy some of it?
I could same the same about you watching ikuhara's degenerate garbage
