I don't blame you, Paprika is a chaotic film. At the end I'm left questioning how much of it was internally real and what was going on.

[@AnimeShinigami13]

also, have you noticed the amount of gender and age related tension in Paprika? It underlies the ENTIRE dream sequences and most of the film. Like some kind of Japanese Freudian fever dream.

[@AnkhAnanku]

There's something about the madness of modern culture that can consume the mind like it did Don Quixote. What's most appalling is that so many of the characters in Paprika are so easily seduced by this madness and willingly delude themselves, carelessly riding it toward their destruction. I'd always thought of this as Chris-Chan's theme (if you know who that is) but it's a danger that isn't just reserved for otakus, is it...

"If you look at a dream overall, it's very difficult to discern the meaning. However, as time goes on, there might be certain meanings in the background. Movies that you can watch once and understand entirely -- that is the type of movie that I don't really like. However, if you are able to understand 70 to 80 percent of what's being relayed, and there's still some percentage left that would allow for your own interpretation . . . that's the type of movie that I do like. There might be a certain part that you don't quite understand, but there is a portion that rests in your heart." Satoshi Kon

That's what I thought, it has the parade feeling, but the chords feel sad. It feels like an army parade, like solders going to war, you're supposed to feel happy because they are the heroes of your country, but they are off to war, and a possibility of never come back. That is the feeling I get when I'm hearing this song. It also feels very russian, like Soviet Union propaganda song. I'ts a mix of conflicting emotions. I really like it.

I can't stop thinking, what is so different in Japan for people to be able to create this kind of movies, music, stories, so full of creativity, complexity, nostalgic beauty, and after all that remaining humble and serious. No wonder it's so fascinating for so many outsiders.

[@Goozeeeee]

I have to assume that the west is more harsh on "strangeness," but it's probably more complicated than that.

[@zule10000]

Kite I imagine it's moreso the industrialization and formulization of Hollywood, in which movies are made solely because of something like pop culture or a need for a sequel in order to make more money. That's not to say there aren't movies made in the West that can make you think, it's just that most are as you already said, not as popular or well funded/advertised. An example that comes to Mind is Transcendence. A movie featuring Johnny Depp no less, that seemed to be forgotten pretty quickly.

[@ishtiakhossain1776]

what's so different in japan? maybe getting nuked... twice? 🤔

[@BonazaiGirl]

I had done a bit of research on that in differences between US and Western and Japanese media and creativity and a ton of it is actually mainly marketing and promotion. You’ll be surprised how many films in the US that feature out of this world strangeness and interestingly unique traits that no one will hear about because it isn’t publicized or promoted as much due to common values. Ask someone about Black Swan or Mr. Nobody and you’re not going to hear about many who heard about it. But the same can be said for Japan as well. A non-anime fan might not know about Paprika but many will. Creativity is there across the ocean, you just have to search for it.

Hey, so my response is a little late. Anyways, I checked out the song you said and there is a definitely some similarities between the two; the most obvious one being the use of a vocoder with rapid, short syllabus to make a melody. However, in terms of genre they are drastically different(mainly due to the difference in timbre between the background instrumentals of the two). My guess is that OMFG was inspired by Hirasawa. I am, however, against calling inspiration a "rip off." That being said Parade is way better than Hello, in my opinion.

Better translation Energy in the heart, chemical foam, I walk through a street of hired cars, old tyres, blood and meet This is liberty, a parody on utopia Gorgeous rows of trees [on the avenue of] buyers and Giga Movies, it’s a sunny day Minor depressions are pranks, rose colour is low priced, Therefore, rejoice - to the extent you can hardly bear Dying literacy - we kill it mechanically A street of traders, hanging wires and formaldehyde Drying synergy - we moisten it with synthetic sweetness In the mega-temple of skyscrapers a frenzy rain of funds falls I cannot write the word ‘ignorance’, but the future is low-priced Laugh that this is in general a superstition. A story of karma See, giving an off-smell, eating your shadow A parade of fear is coming, under your name An MC of roar - it’s a lethal dose for a civilian A street of the disabled, diamonds for sell and reason fallen into blood This is liberty, a parody on utopia What I ask for is SSRI. And now, hi-ho on the terrace of vogue Minor theories are nonsense, pleasure is low-priced On no account you should reflect, for it is too late See, giving an off-smell, eating your shadow A parade of fear is coming, under your name See, it can cover everything around, your shadow produces it - The parade of insanity is coming, under your name

I love this song so much. The song adds so much to the actual parade in the anime. It's chaotic and foreboding. It's intimidating in a creepy way. Like a parade, you can't ignore it. It fits so well to the mess the parade is and the overlapping dreams. Absolutely brilliant.

[@shinkikomori7386]

This movie made me realize some major important things in my life I had completely forgotten, and I can't express how grateful I am. The soundtrack is like a dream, a really confusing and vague fever dream, that opens your eyes and reminds you of things you shouldn't had forgotten. This specific piece reminds me of the lowest time in my life, one I can barely remember, I forgot everything, and then this piece suddenly started playing. It is a very confusing feeling, but I'm grateful I've listened to it.

[@totalconfidencial]

you can get trapped here very easily. Damn no wonder it was so difficult to get out of the parade. What an apt choice of music for such a scene Susumu Hirasawa was indeed a genius among genius.

Lyrics of this song seem to describe pretty well what is going on in our society here in 2020. Lirycs: Energy in my heart is of chemical foam A street of taxis, worn tires, blood and flesh Behold all that is LIBERTY a PARODY of UTOPIA* A shining boulevard is full of merchants and great movies youth depression is a joke, La Vie en Rose is on sale They say you should know you are happier than you realize Dying humanism is systematically murdered Aldehyde street full of merchants and hanging wires Moisturize that dry synergy with artificial sweetener* Raining money in huge shrines You can not write the word 'ignorance'. The future is on sale Step aside and laugh that Karma is just a superstition Now it is coming your way, Giving off a stench and devouring your shadow The parade of terror is coming, calling your name The roaring MC becomes a lethal dose for the audience* Streets full of cripples, selling diamonds and battered taoism Behold all that is LIBERTY a parody of UTOPIA* Rely on SSRI, and say 'hi-ho' in cafateria youth theory is a nonsense, hedonism is on sale It is irreversible, pint of no return is already reached Now it is coming your way, giving off a stench and devouring your shadow The parade of terror is coming, calling your name Now your shadow procreates as if the ground did not hear* The parade of madness is coming, calling your name I know that others also posted translations but there are diferent versions and this is one of them. This one is my friend's, he know japanese and said that most translations are wrong, because original lyrics after translation do not express the same meaning.

The first time I heard this song in the movie, it just dragged me along and I couldn't forget about it. Every time I watched "Paprika", I was waiting only for this song to come, I kept myself alert only to capture the very moment of the first instrument to play, and then started humming along. Man, this is seriously one of the best songs I ever heard in my life, even if I don't understand a single thing about the lyrics (as much as all the other music styles I listen to are pretty much like that).
