I haven't talked to you guys in a while, huh? Well, I promise I have some cool new art coming your way... among which is a final reference to the character drawn in my last post (Yamimaru).

Anyways... Let's talk
HORROR ANIME

I absolutely adore anime, in case you didn't know, and not just Bleach and Naruto (actually, never got into Bleach...). Obscure ones. Creepy ones. Not just Death Note, even though I loves me some Death Note. Today's subject?: Perfect Blue.

Fabulous movie, great animation, creepy as all get out. Satoshi Kon's first cinematic work. It follows Mima Kirigoe, an idol singer who wants to get a more serious acting career. Now, she finds a website called Mima's Room, a supposed diary of hers, although she never recalls any of it, and the details covered are too minute to be a hoax. Does she have a split personality? Or is it (CLICHE POWER!) something worse?

...to be honest, I've never heard my heart pounding in my chest when I watched an anime. But once I got to the second murder, you could here it clearer than the movie.

I highly recommend it to somebody who wants a good psychological scare.

...heh, I've added Me-Mania to my list of cosplay ideas (for those of you who don't know, Me-Mania is Mima's crazy stalker).
