> Satoshi Kon, the director of Perfect Blue and Paprika (Perhaps these examples were saved for the subscribers-only section) Quite notable is the influence of those two films on later Western films--elements shots in Black Swan and Requiem for a Dream match those in Perfect Blue ; the same for Inception and Paprika .

> Is NGE worth watching for someone who never was really into anime? No. I recommend something by Satoshi Kon instead. Not the least because the time commitment is way shorter (movie instead of TV show). Watch Every Frame a Painting’s video[1] and pick any movie. It’s Christmas season, so maybe go with Tokyo Godfathers[2]. [1]: ▶ this video [2]: link
It feels to me sometimes that the "new Miyazaki" is much like being the "new Dylan" used to be in the music industry. Though we lost him too young, Kon Satoshi was able to reach the level of extraordinary several times. "Every Frame a Painting" covered his work: ▶ this video
