Why is this shit praised again? Is it all just muh aesthetics? Because the story is hot garbage. It is clearly made by non-European non-Christians who are just appropriating the idea of Europe and Christianity for the purpose of their retarded pretentious plot.

If you have a problem with this, go back.

For being one of the firsts hentais

Hardly anybody talks about it, it's an average story carried by psychedelic visuals and soundtrack.
Way better than shit like Akira.

It's art.

oh boy the christoschizo is back

>>279877964
At least Akira has good OST, compared to whatever mediocre psychedelic shit was playing in this film.

Imagine being surprised when the japanese are neither european nor christian

Anime should be set exclusively in Japan, because Japs don't understand Europe at all.
Here's another example from Le Chevalier d'Eon, where the MC feels the need to explain to someone that the word "Psalms" is in the Bible, as nobody has heard that word ever before and it's a hidden clue kek. It's so retarded it's hilarious.

Barely anyone knows it even exists. I watched it. There are much better movies about whatever subject it is trying to tell.

The board will never know peace from the plotfag.
Personally I've always liked 1001 Nights more even if Belladonna was always more popular in western film circles.

It's director is pretty well thought of by industry people though because they're 60's films it's mostly older dead/retired people.
Though Yamada likes him which I think is pretty obvious if you look at her work.

So it is influential. Who cares? Just like Horus and White Serpent, no one even knows or cares they exist. Even with Miyazaki's name attached to Horus, no one will bother watching it. These are all just footnote movies.

>>279878667
I care. Because they're still enjoyable in and of themselves and what I enjoy of them still exists in modern contexts for me to enjoy into the future.
That's how influence works.

Who cares? Christianity is a brown religion appropriated by Europeans.

Shit like that happens whenever someone's writing about cultures they aren't super familiar with. The Japanese stuff in X-Men is just as retarded.

So Belladonna of Sadness and Fantastic Planet were released the same year. What was going on this year? Seems to be a very influential year for adult animation and both represent east/west adult animation.
