| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The life of a shopaholic is rough. I loved it, a really trippy short. The techniques were fantastic, and the inspiration taken from Indian/Japanese culture meshed into a really nice package! 7/10 |

| 2trippy4me. the execution was cool, though. |
| How in the world was this inspired by "Alice in Wonderland"? |

StevenHu said: How in the world was this inspired by "Alice in Wonderland"? She was in the wonderland when she wore the latest fashion. But with it came the burden - she had to search for even more fashion. In the end she was engulfed by lipstick butterflies. I'd assume the 'wonderland' part of the story is inspired by Alice in Wonderland. |

| After the first short by this guy I watched I gave up on ever understanding one of his works. Always has quite interesting art and animation but I never know what's happening. |
     Short of the day: Monotonous Purgatory(MAL) ✰Public Domain Club | One Piece Club✰ |
| Nothing beats the original story. |
 |
| This is it. My wife is never going to get a lipstick from now on! wow, art can truly change people :^) |
 I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons, if you were you wouldn't be on MAL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extended families or lovers on MAL are a farce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Didn't follow and had to read the comments. I enjoy that Sephora produced something that was somewhat anti-fashion (at least that's how I interpreted it? Maybe anti-fashion isn't the correct phrase). I originally was wondering why 14 people would drop a 4-minute animation, but after I started it, I was anxious for it to end. A little too trippy to watch at 0130, that's for sure. It felt like something out of Yume Nikki. I enjoy watching odd shorts sometimes, but this was a little too out there for my taste. I can respect the originality and creativity, though. |
| This is tripping ballz mate! Seriously do not watch this when you're on drugs! |
 |
| Just rewatched this 4 times and i still confused about what is this movie about. Btw, for some reason, the first scene that appear on the screen remainds me of "The Scream" by Edvard Munch... |

"People who don't see that anime has changed are either wearing "glasses" or watching only a certain type (and or era) of anime" "Having a low mean score doesn't necessarily mean one doesn't enjoy anime. Rating system is not a school grading system." "Elitist is people who think he is superior than others. Not necessarily ones who insulting/critisizing your favorite anime or people who enjoy a certain type of anime" "Fanboy is people who translating "your favorite anime is shit" into "you are shit". "Being a fanboy is an indication of elitism" |
| Really cool little experimental short. I like the superflat style that's going on here, in multiple ways. Cool sound design too. I mostly just thought it was a funny and cool short, somewhat ani-fashion as mentioned with its "lost in a maze" feel. It feels somewhat false since it is a commercial though. |
| I thought it was a funny trippy short anime. It showed us how beauty can confine us, while at the same time causes us attention all year long. Beautiful short, 5/10. |
How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb --- Dr Strangelove  |
| Really good animation, but no meaning behind it(typical dementia/psychodelic stuff in Brownian motion style) 4-5/10 |
| I hate everyone equally |
| More of the same, just a tad better. |
Have suspicions, not faith. |
xeonite said: I was wondering the same thing.WHY the heck is this rated "all ages"?! It's so weird, bizarre, and CREEPY. It was rather interesting though. |
 |
| It was pretty disgusting. |
 |
| I could feel my brain accelerating whilst I was viewing this. |
| Somewhat interesting, I especially liked how colours were used, some very bright colours that still fit together well. The images had their own charm, though it felt like there was weirdness just for the sake of being weird. Which is fine, I guess, but it doesn't leave more than a mild, momentary fascination toward what I'm seeing. |
| This was hella disturbing for it to be rated G. Either way, I liked the animation overall, and compared to the other two shorts I saw from Tanaami, this was tolerable. |

| Wow, so many references to western art! The houses with the arcades and the light tower look like Giorgio De Chirico's works. Also, that spiked eyeball could have been inspired by the International Hygiene Exhibition poster by Franz Stuck. |
