EXTREMELY NSFW due to constant nudity

 

Having said that skip to 1:30. It's fucking mesmerizing. Commentary on unhealthy obsessions and coping mechanisms post-relationship. All with a huge 3 kgs of Evangelion sugar. Keep watching. I promise it isn't just cartoon characters naked

 

this is as anime as it gets.

 

also on a more tame and just as awesome note

What did I just watch?

Discussions seems to be that it's somewhere alongside a commentary of how low and disgusting anime has become and how otaku culture negatively affects people. The guy in the story was in a relationship with a real life girl and he broke up with her. Somewhere in his shame he found otaku culture and became a total recluse. He now sits at home, pitying himself, surrounded by his waifus and video games trying to make the pain of missing the girl go away. He tries to escape the fake waifus and the video games to move on with his life, but fails horribly. I think it's also a comment about his perception of the idols as these sex symbols who are overpowering and his realization that real relationship with women is much more satisfying than fantasizing about these girls. He hurt a real girl and regrets it immensely.

Yeah caught that as well...would love to have the lyrics translated...

 

Now, not that they shouldn't critique the culture, I feel it's more important to have a balance in life. Though...not sure I really know/understand the culture. But I'd hope not all "otakus" have dibilitating social issues...(not saying the video is saying otherwise or condemning it. I enjoyed the video.)

 

The video does a great job showing that it can be difficult to strike that balance that we all do on a daily basis.

 

Like making sure I watch porn AND play video games. ;)

I actually didn't realize Me!Me!Me! was part of program for studios to show off original projects and other stuff. Kind of like Anime Mirai, I think? Anyways, linked is the fourth one in the series. It's a rough Western with a premise that reminds me of Once Upon a Time in the West. Again, NSFW.

 

Me!Me!Me! is the third one in the series. The first one is about Dragon Dentist (an interesting concept) and the second is about cycling. These two are SFW but the first one has some violence.
