    I misread your explanation and my brain interpreted "David Lynch directed an anime in the 90's"

    I will not recover from this loss.

      man i wish. i know at least one big anime director has said he'd love to collab with lynch, imagine if ikuhara had done something with him in the 90s

          ooooh, that would have ruled. they both clearly love sunset boulevard and persona. a lot of thematic overlap

      does it? i feel like even the most lynchian of anime has deeply different vibes. like there are some episodes of utena or lain that feel distinctly lynchian, but even they're clearly coming at it from a very different angle
