Introducing Paprika: genius anime director's Satoshi Kon's magnum opus.
This is a movie that blends dreams and reality in a beautifully weird way. It makes you think about what and why dreams are.
This showcases the best trait of Japanese media - they are not afraid to be weird.
Why am I discussing this here? One of the main characters is basically an incel archetype: fat autistic nerd that nobody likes.
One of the side plots explores the negative perception towards him, despite him minding his own business.
I think even without the psychedelic visuals, this alone makes Paprika worth watching.
If you want to learn more, Every Frame a Painting made an amazing video about what makes Satoshi Kon's work great.
