This is a deep-dive into Satoshi Kon’s dark mirror on Japanese idol culture and the role of the Otaku -- and how it evolved from an extreme social outlier into a cultivable brand identity for the masses. __ Support this channel on Patreon: http://ragnarrox.com/patreon/ Twitter: http://ragnarrox.com/twitter/ Facebook: http://ragnarrox.com/facebook/ Every Frame a Painting: Satoshi Kon - Editing Time and Space https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oz49vQwSoTE __ Creative Credits Original script: Michal Saba https://www.youtube.com/user/akhorahilis ___ Movies/TV shows shown in this video Perfect Blue (1997) Millennium Actress (2001) Tokyo Godfathers (2003) Paprika (2006) Dark Water (2002) Kairo (2001) Pulse (2006) Ringu (1998) K-On (2009) Jellyfish Princess (2010) Ghost in the Shell (1995) Patlabor - The Movie (1989) Akira (1988) Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Johnny Mnemonic (1995) Your Name (2016) Samsara (2011) Net-juu no Susume (2017) Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san (2018) OTAKU (1994) NHK ni Youkoso!
