Chainsaw Bunny

This is My first review, please forgive any mistakes.

This shortfilm is the creepiest I've ever seen, it's definitely very well done, The animation is fantastic,i think that is very unique, i really enjoyed this shortfilm and i know that not everyone will like this shortfilm but you have to give it at least one chance.

although, I would have liked them to have spoken but, the fact that they do not speak gave it the creepy vibe it has.

Not to mention that the character designs are very good.

I think that people who like horror short films or simply the horror genre will not regret watching it, ... i absoluty recommend it.

Hey Guys, it's Halloween, so I decided to bring to you Takena Nagao's best work out of his claymation cre(m)ation station: Chainsaw Bunny!!!

Characters (7.5/10): Are you tired of trashy harem, prententious anime like Bunny Girl Senpai? Do you also hate Facebook and its overwhelming controlling over your social media life? Chainsaw Bunny has got you! Not only is special guest Mark Zuckerburg playing the antagonist role in this horror movie, we also have a subversion of your typical bunny girls: instead of cute girls wagging their cotton tail, they're swinging their axes and knifes to take out the Z U C C.

Story (10/10): The metaphorical ... meaning this movie provides is surprising (and definitely not pretentious garbage I'm making up). In the Facebook Papers, we actually learn the algorithm incites violence. What do you know? In Chainsaw Bunny, slithery tongued Zucc with his robot looking eyes is about to take down another victim with his face(book) mouth flap looking thing and about to eat a bunny girl! The solution: turn off Facebook, or as our bunny girl does it, cut down the face of the ZUCC.

However, we all know how addicting social media is. No matter how long you stay away and feel safe from all the scary parts of Facebook, they always come back. And that's when Zucc multiplied into multiple zombie clones. FACEBOOK IS SPREADING!! That's right, Takena was definitely alluding to targeted ads, more hate content, more of your offline buddies joining the site, and everything else you can think of ready to consume you like it always has...

And that's where the bombastic climax is reached. Using bunny girl power, our girls teamed up and slashed ALL the faces of Mr. Zucc and his nasty-looking tongue. What Takena is telling us is that EVERYONE needs to stop using Facebook. That's how we stop the zombie invasion attack.

The last minute shows our hero bunnies feeling relief when law enforcement comes. But it raises a question. Is the government on Zucc's side or yours? If the government is indeed 'sus', you know what you gotta do~

Audiovisuals (9/10): I will be completely honest about the art and sound and I actually think Takena has improved a lot over 15 years. Especially if you watch his older videos right before this one, you'll be surprised how fluid the stopmotion is! The animation of Zucc's tongue was smooooooothhhh! The way blood splattered and the gore was done was actually amazing. Takena even put in the effort to mold the ZUCC Zombies' pps so you can tell he was serious about this one. The characters actually look almost as good as the Rilakkuma to Kaoru-san's stopmotion/claymation style and it paired so well with the sound as well. I don't know how Takena has made all of the sound effects or molded everything but it really shows his experience with his work. He had some help for this particular work, but even still I am genuinely impressed.

Comedy: If you like so-bad-it's-good, this is perfect. If you genuinely like Takena and for some reason haven't seen this masterpiece, go watch right now! You can watch the full movie (6 minutes) on his YouTube channel. I'm honestly surprised I have not heard of this until I was looking through his works on MAL. More people need to see this, laugh, and share with other people, especially on Halloween, because if you see this as a trashy horror or as a hilarious satire on Mark Zuckerburg, I promise you it will be worth the watch!

Moral of the Story: Use AniTwitter (which is totalllly better) and the Discord App. Thank you Takena for this masterpiece.

Note: As of writing this, it's been 10 months since Takena has posted a YT video and I definitely think it's because the ZUCC zombies have invaded his home. We must bring Takena back from the dead by spreading his message for everyone in the world to see!

[Slicing & Dicing]

Takena Nagao has done it again. For those who are familiar with his work, you can expect the same high quality stop-motion, claymation, no dialogue, and lots of blood and gory kills.

STORY:

Two girls wearing bunny suits get involved with a creepy male, who turns outs to be some alien with a wide mouth and long tongue. The bunny girls decide to solve things in a “quick and effective” manner. By slicing and dicing them with a chainsaw.

ANIMATION:

Amazing stop-motion, claymation, especially during the gory fight scenes when the movements are fast and on-point. The backgrounds are simple and lack much details. The male characters ... are creepy, especially their facial expressions when all they do stare without blinking and smile. The female are no different, but at least they blink their eyes, make angry or shocked facial expressions, and not smile like an idiot.

SOUND:

There is no dialogue. There are no opening and ending songs. There are however many detailed sound effects, such as people walking, doors opening, chairs sliding, knife stabbings, and a chainsaw roaring and spinning. The background music is there to provide the viewers what type mood is happening.

CHARACTERS:

What is character development? What is background stories? There aren’t any here. Just two bunny girls, many creepy males, and one chainsaw.

The chainsaw is the best character, it solves many problems.

ENJOYMENT:

I expected blood and gory, and I got blood and gory, plus a bunny girl wielding a chainsaw makes everything better.
