I was around 11 years old at the time, i saw Perfect Blue in a store and became intrigued from the graphical side of things, 'dont judge a book by it's cover' was the oppisite for me. The cover of the VHS tape showed Mima lying down on some flowers with one strap of her promiscious top over her shoulder.I had noticed this anime before, and i think before seeing the tape, i had seen a AMV. I looked on the back of the cover and it showed cham, in these cute pink lolitaish styled dresses, with white knee high socks and red chunky heels.

I think what can capture some girls with anime is the 'prettyness' and fenimisity it holds, i read it was about a popstar then wanted to buy it immediantly. When i saw it was an 18, i got my dad to buy it for me, after i had watched it i was left bored and confused and pondering what it was all about. The first time watching it however, i wasnt really focusing and afterwards i just kept rewinding the video back to the beggining when cham sing 'ai no tenshi'. I have this song on my iPod now and am very pleased! Overall, my rating is 'masterpeice', because it's just such a classic and when you first watch it you loose track of whats real and whats reality. Mima is haunted by the past of her life as a popstar when she chooses a career of an actress, she seems to become dellusional and feel guilty and maybe even a little scisophrenic. She starts posing naked for magazines, and in a film, plays a stripper who gets raped. Perfect Blue is quite circuitous and complicated but a must see and everybody understands it eventually 8D
