Just saw How Do You Live (Boy and the Heron). In short, it delivered but this isn't a review, we're chatting about a single animator. Avoiding all trailers I was surprised to see this opening scene:
Tumblr media
That's definitely Shinya Ohira, I thought.
Often I wonder about the process of an artist bringing a concept to reality. Starting life as an idea, it gets filtered, drained and blemished through the process of reaching the audience.
Tumblr media
When I see Ohira's scenes I become aware of my heartbeat as if it's synchronizing with his.
Tumblr media
Though I first saw his work on Akira, this short from the Animatrix was THE ONE. I still call it "Ya Know, The Skateboard Kid" and people know exactly what I'm talking about.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ohira's opening scene in How Do You Live was left uncorrected which worked with the nightmarish atmosphere of the sequence. I'd imagine bringing his work on-model has to be hell.
Tumblr media
You're watching an anime and suddenly, THAT SCENE pops up. Kill Bill, Howl's Moving Castle, Ping Pong, you know the ones.
In animation, they want you to stay on-model, keep the show cohesive, but speaking as one that works in the industry, I want to be seen.
You're watching something and get asked, "Wanna see something really cool?" and you get this crazy animation flex. I want to see artist go wild. Gimme THAT SCENE!

Imagine this four in a band.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But the guitarist (Hobie) and bassist (Haruka) always argue about sharing the spotlight and where the band is going creatively while the lead singer and synth player (Jinx) and drummer (Nimona) just hanging out and causing anarchy (like pranking each other or TPing a heckler’s house the person jumped on stage trying to cause some major ruckus which got them kicked out of the venue). Haruka leaves the band because of Creative Differences (but in reality she gets kicked out of the band she did some shit that even Hobie thought that crossed the line). Haruka’s absence prompt’s the band to replace her with this dude.
Tumblr media
But turns out he’s not a good bass player at all but they kept him because he is a good rhythm guitarist so the whole band + Chai decides to perform without a bass guitarist. After a night, the band decided to celebrate in a bar (Nimona and Jinx just turned legal adults so Hobie why not have them get their very first drink of beer with their consent) after a first good live show without Haruka. While they’re enjoying their food (with Nimona and Chai arguing if pineapple is good on pizza while Jinx is egging them on) this woman came in wanting to join the band.
Tumblr media
She explained to them how she liked their performance during the show and how they would need a bass player. Hobie hesitant at first asks Marceline to perform in the stage (because it’s an open mic night at the bar) to see how she good really is. And she did, she went on the stage and performed I’m Just Your Problem, a song she wrote after a really bad breakup with her college girlfriend for 5 years. Hobie really impressed let her join the band. There is now 5 people (Jinx in lead vocals and synthesizer, Hobie in lead guitar, Marceline in backup vocals and bass, Nimona in Drums, and Chai in Rhythm Guitar) in the band and they’re rocking out all over the world.
P.S. They also have a roadie and guitar who is this lady.
Tumblr media
She doesn’t give her name to the band as she told them to call her The Player just because.
There’s also this young woman.
Tumblr media
Gwen is close friends with Hobie and occasionally plays drums with the band whenever Nimona is out of commission (usually injuries from one of her’s and Jinx’s hi jinx but she always gets back up better than ever). But she’s sadly not a permanent member because she has a band of her own in The Mary Janes (where she plays drums in) and she’s in college and the band knows that they can’t replace someone like Nimona because they pretty much care about her.

Rewatched FLCL last night with some friends (some who had seen it before, some for whom it was their first time watching it.)
Tumblr media
And like.
It's not an anime you can recommend to people who haven't seen any anime. (My husband said that it actually made a lot more sense to him now that he's watched Evangelion, and the level of anime bullshit is off the charts.)
And it's an anime that can be hard to recommend since it's so deeply uncomfortable at times. (But then, the experience of being 12 is inherently very uncomfortable isn't it?)
But I think IGN columnist Davis Smith said it really well, "Logic dictates that FLCL should be an undisciplined and unaffecting mess, given all the insanity that its creators are attempting to weld into a functioning whole. Yet while it's hard to explain exactly why, it works. It entertains me. At times, it makes me laugh; at times, it makes me a little misty-eyed; at times, it makes me want to scream and howl and light things on fire and break windows with baseball bats and yes, maybe even buy a Vespa. That's the kind of success that you just can't argue with."
My friend (who, granted, was pretty stoned by the end) said "there should be a room in the MOMA that just has this and the Utena movie playing on repeat."
