| I just watched this movie again, this time though was for my anime film series class. Apparently, i don't remember as much as i thought i did. anyways i thought that movie was really interesting, really intense. as expected of Kon Satoshi. |
 |
| Yes, I've actually seen this film. It was very trippy and confusing if you haven't paid attention in the slightest. I'll have to watch it again. |
Kanashimi said: It's a good movie, but I think it was a tad over-rated. Over-rated? I'd say under-rated, if anything. Satoshi Kon is the master. Everything he touches turns to gold. |
| GUUUUHHHN FINGAAAS! |
| I can dig it. Compared to his other stuff, and because of a lot of the hype, I can see why people might have too high expectations. But, for his directorial debut, it was great. |
| GUUUUHHHN FINGAAAS! |
| Honestly, I didn't really like it. I looked it up after watching Paprika, which I absolutely loved. It was well-made, but I didn't enjoy it at all. |
 |
| Perfect Blue is great. Especially if you've seen what Kon did to manipulate the original story into what he used for his movie. This is how a good psychological thriller is made. |
| #dontcare |
| Agreed, a very good psychological thriller. It was pretty trippy when it was revealed who the killer was. I was so confused and shocked that I was frozen. Really weird. |
   |
| I just got around to finishing it. I was confused at first, but it was pretty interesting. |
 |
| Wow, I just realized that it's been 7 years since I watched Perfect Blue. It was in Real Media format... man was that some poor quality. I think I used RealPlayer 4 back then. |
|
| guess what. Sci-fi network is showing "Perfect Blue" Monday night at 11pm...10pm central. |
 |
| Great film. Non-patronising, complex, interesting, unpredictable, and gorgeous. Kanashimi said: Whut? I dunt unnastand =P Don't you know what your expectations were?Eh, I heard a lot of hype about it and though I did indeed like the movie, I assumed it didn't meet my expectations. |
| I don't understand the ending at all. |

| Mima was only going partially crazy from guilt and paranoia which was also being fed by the already crazy Rumi. |

| Just watched this movie and I have to say that I thought it was pretty good. I had always wanted to check it out as it's one of the 'must watch' anime movies in quite a few 'best of' lists, and it didn't disappoint in quality... but I did have a complaint. |
 I don't have a good one because I don't photoshop :( |
| For an anime movie the story and plot was somewhat unique, but if it was live action this movie would be just another dime-a-dozen multiple-personality, suspence, thriller films. In other words, I was less than impressed. |

After I watched Paprika, I went and looked up some other movies made by Kon. When I came upon Perfect Blue, I was iffy about it. When I was finished with the movie, I had mixed emotions. I found I liked it, but in a different way that I liked Paprika. I liked Perfect Blue, because of the way everything happened, in the movie, and the way Kon portrayed it. I also liked it because of the mystery in every plot twist. You saw one scene that contradicted another, which made you think. Kon turned things up-side-up-around and down, and was still able to make sense of it all. And though, some of those things can be applied to Paprika, I liked Paprika for different reasons. Not only for its gorgeous animation, but for its color, and intertwining story line, and brilliant characters out the wazoo. They were two very different movies, but I still enjoyed both. |
 |
| in short....this anime is Crazy~, so many peoply that's crazy, and at the last moment, i think mima has also gone crazy, wa, so crazy *i think im going crazy~*, ammi crazy? |
| Two words: Mind F*** Also, the scene that was the most memorable, and the one that made me the most uneasy was the first rape, the one for the show. That scene, plus later when she gets back to her apartment, and the image of the dead fish causes her to have a breakdown, still sticks in my memory. |

 Higurashi: Retroactively asserting why scary and cute sound so similar in Japanese. |
| what a ride, this is the only anime for the first time which made me pause it halfway because the plot has become deeper and even more crazed. 9/10 definitely recommended to everyone who likes the psychological genre |
| wow really a great movie 9/10 from me |
 |
| I just saw the movie and didn't understand anything. My brain hurts and tries to understand what it just saw.Anyone who understandes it completely send me a pm with the detailed plot .I m immature in seeing Anime yet,i shouldn't have seen this yet |
| I watched this after Paprikab and Milenium actress, it´s different, but I still loved. Although I could say who was the murder since the beggining I could fell the frustration and confusion between what is real or not. Great film, great history, watch it!! |
     |
| This is one of the few movies to really make me squirm. There are some scenes that are seriously hard to watch unscathed, IMO. |
 |
| Incredible directing, Satoshi Kon really is the master. I don't think I've ever experienced this much suspense from a film before. |
| I think I watched this a long time ago. I remember...rape? Ghosts/illusions? Knife stabbing? Screaming girl? Celebity news? Am I on the right track? |

In other words, I was less than impressed. agree with that actually. Also, I think I enjoyed the first half but when it gets trippy, its a bit too much. I like trippy stuff, but the psychological aspect in the latter half was a bit too forced. It was a unique movie for an anime, but if you're into live action stuff there are wayy better psychological thrillers out there. Thats a good thing if you're more into anime than live action, but not so good for people who've seen more live action than anime. The only thing that gives this movie the edge is some of the stuff that could only make sense with animation, like most of the scenes with the fake mimi |
| "...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth') |
| Perfect Blue was a great mindfuck. Kinda confusing too. |
Lyra_Yoghi_LY7JR said: Can I ask something people about this film, is she really being raped in the movie scenes??? it look so poor when I saw it... It feels like being rape in reality... I believe it was rape, because she felt repulsive by it. |
| The page says "scored by 64,632 users," so yes, I'd assume someone else has seen this. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| This movie really got me mindfucked. Nothing else to say. 9/10 |
| Me-Mania is bae, hands down. |
 |
| Nothing special in this movie. |
 |
| Well, few (12) years later. I saw it *clap clap*, purely amazing ! |
| Signature removed. Please have a positive iq. |
| Never into it much. I gave it a 5 out of 10. I have seen stuff get more done in far more subtle ways, and I have seen more psychotic, mind and soul bending things that were more meaningful and impactful. Perhaps I need to rewatch it one day...but I dont care to. |
