    I got into oshi no ko recently. The anime that is. It reminds me of perfect blue by satoshi kon.

    Actually I’ve known about this anime since last year and had read a few chapters back then. It didn’t stick. I don’t see the appeal. So I dropped it. idk why this time it works in anime form. Maybe it’s the movement, music, and flashy colours that solidified for me the message they wanna tell.

    When that director told the kid that it’s not about making art. It’s just business. That really hits

    I was so engrossed in ep1 that I didn’t notice my phone battery went out and so goes the hotspot and the anime starts buffering. The end got me a bit emotional and teary.

        It doesn’t have that mind bending psychological thing in perfect blue. But more towards the harsh reality of the entertainment industry.

      The production team has done a splendid job in adapting the series. I liked the writing so I started with the manga(but it was just a couple weeks before anime aired) and I got addicted within a few hours.

      Haven’t heard of perfect blue but I’ll check it out later
