Ryusei-Kacho
"So, you really are Marilyn D!".

This is so absurd but funny at the same time, what is it called? stupid? yes it is the word. This is what should Anime live adaptation should like, even though these are not adaptation though, but it is so anime coded. Im afraid Ryusei-Kacho is a former kamen rider lmao. This short-film is perfectly captures what is avant-garde are. Truly so much innovative within 13 minutes film from 2002. The biggest spotlight is on CGI and Flashy sketchy random ass story. As i mention this short-film from 2002, there is no reason the story could be this fresh in 2026. Absolute hidden culture gems. Here's a spoiler there's this scene where the guy, "Rock Lee" slam her from outside of earth beyond stratosphere to the earth ground. If this not peak then what is it. No wonder why it's the Evangelion guy who made this shit.
