Honestly, this feels like a masterpiece that has been overlooked for far too long. If it ever gets a remastering, id imagine itd be VERY popular. That being said, lets go over it. This series has a never ending struggle that has a hopeful tone to it. The characters feel relatable and well rounded, giving many different and unique perspectives of the main plot. My only real complaint is that I wished to see more.
The technology and the state of the world feels mysterious and perhaps it is a part of this series charm eventhough I would have loved to delve in deeper. I

I honestly have bias to this show since im in love with the aesthetic and characters. Im not a fan of the trope of a overly handsome and perfect guy everyone simps over, but for this film im willing to look past it. The pacing feels alright, though a bit fast. Every character has something interesting and unique about them, creating a diverse team of main characters (eventhough most concepts used in this series are recycled from other generic ideas of a fantasy world mixed with modernity). The characters overall, dont exactly feel human and its hard to sympathize/empathize with some them and that may

Animation is consistently good/amazing, has some fascinating ideas and approaches the morals over technology, though maybe it could use more. The movie is mostly action and the characters are mostly meh, not having much to them-rather being there as puppets to play/make the story happen. This is all steampunk style so if you like steampunk and engineering, id say this is a pretty good fantasy-like story. Its exciting, full of action, and fun to watch. I do like the steampunk style, although it is not my favorite I still enjoyed watching this movie, but I dont think Ill rewatch it.
I would mostly recommend this to ... Dec 23, 2023
Its a bit trippy, as youd expect it to for travelling across dreams. This is a movie that may require at least watching it twice to fully process it, in my opinion. The animation is beautiful and bursting with creativity and mind boggling visuals. The characters are okay, but its clearly Paprika who is the star, thus not alot is given to the surrounding characters. Music's catchy and represents the feverish sensation of a wild and crazy dream.
Although I like it, because its a bit trippy and has small moments of nudity (especially near the end) Id have a hard time recommending it to ... Dec 23, 2023

I'm honestly pleasantly surprised by this movie. The animation is consistently well made, the characters are all well rounded and is overall touching and magical. Everything is connected and has moments of deep self reflection for each of the characters. Its a great Christmas-y anime that gives a humorous experience despite the struggles the main cast deal with throughout the show. I love the way this movie portrays homelessness. It feels realistic, you struggle with the cast as they journey. Each of the characters truly do feel alive and human with the way they interact with eachother and their surroundings, as well of each of
