Chicken Papa

Thought-provoking, cosmic, psychological—horror.

Chicken Papa achieves what Tokyo Ghoul and Parasyte strive for, but in a much shorter timeframe while offering far more substance and food for thought. The entire short is like savoring garlic chicken: you begin by relishing the crispy skin—a rush of dopamine flooding your senses as you bite into it. Beta-endorphins, tyrosine, enkephalin, valine, lysine, leucine, and isoleucine—the rush you get here at the marvel of Chicken Papa going inside an elevator is exhilarating.

However, as the garlic flavor intensifies and you sink deeper into the dried meat within, a wave of guilt and disillusionment washes over you—thus mirroring the woman's experience in ... the short. In this world, humanoid animals appear to exist—at least chicken humanoids, as evidenced by Chicken Papa. He casually comments that the woman in the elevator must have eaten garlic chicken yesterday - noting her garlic-scented breath. She apologizes as the weight behind her horrible actions becomes hauntingly clear - awkwardness and shame explicit in her body language. The casual tone of this interaction is deeply unsettling as it highlights the disquieting idea that a species we commonly consume and take for granted is another sentient being much like ourselves. What happened to the lady's fate after this short? Was that the last we ever saw of her? Was Chicken Papa's battle cry a symbol that he was going to eat her in return? If so, how will this impact the economy and society as a whole? So thought-provoking and subtextually rich it's making me hungry (I am unironically eating chicken as I'm writing this; I shall commit harakiri to restore honor).

Also phenomenally animated 3D animation reminiscent of my own experiences with 3D animation years ago (Blender, Maya, Cinema 4D), and I can tell you this must've taken several centuries of grueling hard work at the minimum - and that's not accounting for the character rigging processes & incredible screenplay behind it. Chicken Papa himself is highly detailed, stylized, and well-rigged. The woman has a distinct charm to her 3D model that you wouldn't find in any other anime. In total, this may have taken 10 milleniums.

Chicken Papa



I'm pretty unsure what I was looking at.

However, these random and questionable chicken noises warmed my heart. I feel like a whole new person.

To be honest, the moment he suddenly sounded like a chicken was quite amusing.

... I don't know what to say about it either.



Story

The main story is about a bizarre chicken .. or is it human?
Who enters an elevator and wants to go to the 10th floor. So far, no further details regarding the main story are known. What is waiting for him on this floor?

Animation

To be honest, I've seen worse animated titles and scenes.

Characters

So far nothing is known of the two important main characters, except for their preference for elevators. The female protagonist, however, should pay more attention to her body odor, so the chicken said.


Conclusion

A 1-minute comedy? Episode. It's so bizarre that I was tricked into writing a review on it.
