Thanks for the tip off. Just watched it myself. I have to say that was one of the most massively f*ked up things I've ever seen. Obviously FLCL was a big influence on this although it is both more coherent and less sane. My favorite quote, "Nothing around here surprises me anymore."

If you look you'll see the words "Dead Leaves Now Playing. Click on Dead Leaves above to watch." Just follow the instructions.

This anime did so many amazing things in the way of perspective and point of view as well as low-key lighting... Interesting parallelism regarding the story of the butterfly and human existence too, when an anime goes so far off of the fourth wall to give the audience somethign meaningful, I respect that. If I didn't have so much homework to do, I'd write a review on it. In any case, the scene with "the baby" had me laughing so hard I was crying... priceless... priceless when blood and violence and sex and anything else lewd lead to so many interesting things. Dead Leaves is a bit of an oddity, but I guess that's what I like about it.

I have to give some props to Gaijin Productions and their dub work. I've loved Amanda Winn-Lee's work for years... and love the fact that she and her husband have taken a shot at almost all aspects of western production. Her yelling can at times get a bit tiring but she is still very, very intelligent regarding her work.

"And that retro tv on your head makes you look like an ass****."

well it's being released in the UK this month if anyone is interested. i haven't seen it myself but how does it compare to FLCL? I saw some of the screens, and would rather get the DVD than watch it streamed.

I don't know if comparing it to Furi Kuri would be accurate, considering that although Production I.G. did produce the title Dead Leaves with Gainax, Gainax did not work as designers for Dead Leaves.

If there must be a comparison, however, the plot is fairly linear when it comes to Dead Leaves. Regarding the fact that you know the characters and you know their motives within the first five minutes of the short anime, it leaves little room for any storyline alteration; the program is therefore limited to elaboration.
