Obscure Ending But Inspired A Lot Of Masterpieces

Rating: 8/10 (24 January 2019)

If you are an otaku, the first thing you will notice that the film does not adopt the regular style of drawing, the faces and figures are roundish instead of sharp manga-style drawing. Which will make you less reluctant to avoid watching it, even if you have the habit of skipping a movie by watching its dull beginning. The problem of juxtaposing the post-apocalyptic the low-life and high-tech in the making of a regular cyberpunk movie has overcome by its thick representation. But it has missed the little details of life, like those little-animated details of how nature works in the Ghibli films.
The ending disarrayed my interest, I did not understand the ending, the creation of the singularity and several realities and being existed in one of them, seems like too much complexity has been put in a very little amount of time. I prefer either startling and action-packed endings or happy endings rather than an obscure one.
The movie is free of romance, but promising affections have been shown in several scenes, In the scene, when Tetsuo escaped from JSDF by using his psychokinetic powers and returned to Kaori, to whom he surrendered his egomaniacal appearance, later devouring her unknowingly with the psychic power of uncontrollable dual identity. Also in the scene of Kei describing the mystery of life to Kaneda with the help of esper Kiyoko.
Maybe overrated but the improvision of the futuristic dystopian tech world with a thick storyline and layers of topics which inspired a lot of masterpieces this movie is worth-watching.
