Discussion: Season 1, Episode 3 Join the Discussion
2752) the same woman sees this murder (but only at the very beginning of the loop), runs away from the man who is trying to catch up with her in order to understand what is happening
3) a woman (being with a gun) defends herself from a man, kills him (in short, further 1 and 2 points, only they switch places)
So if one of them doesn't figure out what's going on the first time, they'll stay there forever.
8:06 - some news
and it is unlikely to hint at Russia, because there are many inscriptions in Chinese. most likely, what is the multinational metropolis of the future)
And the Cyrillic inscriptions are funny.
The visually cool series and the entourage are normal. In places, "Chpuka through the universes" reminded me, including comic book POW, etc.
One of the people who worked on Spider-Man.
UPD: We've already written below)
HOW LONG?!
" This is not life action painted over the top, or real people running around with masks... Its a weird compliment though, but what you see here are real paintings ( Environment Supervisors 2D @lingy000 , 3D @heavypoly and myself we LOVE painting !!! ) Animation is KeyFrame Animation. " - "Animation is not an outline of animation made using motion capture technology, at the same time we did not shoot actors in masks. Nevertheless, it's a strange, but still a compliment, because everything you see is really drawn. Yes, we love to draw."
And yes, I'm shocked. I was sure that these were real actors depicted. And they didn't even use motion capture technology.
So the series does not resemble the style of the State of emergency, but it is in this style, just slightly modified for the IRL, and not the comics.
There are simply no words. The first thing that catches your eye is not that unusual, but rather even a unique drawing (at least I don't remember seeing this before). You can't even be completely sure, like you're seeing a natural shot, but at the same time a hand-drawn work. It's all so unconventionally and masterfully intertwined. From the bed-soft and pink-yellow tones, you are completely transported to this stunning aesthetics and atmosphere, on the one hand, Japan, since the beginning very much reminded you of "Ghost in the Shell" (at first it even seemed that the first frames were embedded from the anime itself), and on the other, the color combination for some reason, very it strongly inspired the atmosphere of South Korea. In general, we can say that experimenting with the setting of these two most interesting cultures (but of course I'm not saying anything) has created a truly magnificent, non-standard anime that "swallows" you whole. The shooting was reminiscent of the work of such directors as Wes Anderson (because of the manner of the pan-camera behavior and, again, the delicate colors as in "Grand Budapest") and the duo Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, the "Adrenaline" dilogy. By the way, the R rating is just "not far away".
No matter how you look at it, everything in this series is admirable. Visual, aesthetics with a setting, "a snake devouring its tail" as in "Predestination" (Time Patrol) with Ethan Hawke. But most of all, I was struck by the style of drawing... Filming? It's really amazing!
After all of the above, seen and felt, there is a desire for a full-fledged serial series in this style.
And then the hop, and the man.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Actually, there are two assumptions. One is boring, in the style of Vitya Korneev, who does not agree to violate the principle of causality because of such stupidity as similar faces. Everything that is happening must be understood literally: a girl from a hotel window sees another girl being killed, gets into the same apartment and kills a young man, which another young man sees from the hotel window. And faces, well, what are faces? They look like all these giant humanoids (especially the girls in the Harley Quinn combat uniform). It's not for nothing that the girl ends up running into the same apartment, a sort of Lukashin effect on the scale of the whole of Hong Kong.
But this version has several questions, for example, where did the gun and the body from the first murder go?
I like the second version better, although it is certainly speculative and irrefutable. Let's say we have a deeply depressed girl who at some point completely freaks out in a panic and shoots herself. There is no young man, it's her imagination. It seems to her that she sees him killing her in the house across the street, he glitches at her in the "club", and then that's it, the finale, she kills herself. It seems to her that he is looking out of the window opposite, in fact it is her own memory. It's all either a near-death experience or even a post-death (ghostly) experience.
I mean, maybe you should stop mindlessly repeating "loup loup loup" and take a closer look at what's being shown, huh?
Plot 1 (shown in the series) - a girl sees that a man is committing murder in the building opposite (she does not see the victim, but the man sees that a girl is looking at him from the house opposite, which is a complete copy of the one he just killed). The girl is scared and starts running away, and the man runs after her to figure out the situation. As a result, they return to the hotel room from where the girl ran away and she kills the man out of fear, after which she sees in the window exactly the same man she just shot.
Plot 2 (not shown, but implied) - a man sees that a girl is committing murder in the building opposite (he does not see the victim, but the girl sees that a man is looking at her from the house opposite, which is a complete copy of the one she just killed). The man is scared and starts running away, and the girl runs after him to sort out the situation. As a result, they return to the room of the house from where the man was running away and he kills the girl out of fear, after which he sees in the window exactly the same girl he just shot.
Each character lives only 2 cycles - the cycle of the victim (running away) and the cycle of the killer (trying to catch up), after which he dies and the time loop makes another turn.
It's still a magnifier. Where did she get the gun from? She had it now, the noose was running. The young man obviously won't go to the country after witnessing the murder. To the police is more likely, but the panic does not stop. Where did the apartment keys come from - the girl didn't lock the apartment, that's how they got to her, he'll probably do something similar.
I liked the first 2 episodes much more.
And where are the robots?
My impressions of the series and the series as a whole are twofold. Let's see for now, maybe they'll give you a ride along with the picture.
. These series are all separate stories that were shot in a specially compressed way, so they leave more impression, without tediousness and prolongation
. your comment is about nothing
I wrote in response to the comment ((
The plot is not new at all, but I love this "getting stuck in a loop", it's always interesting to watch!
if someone understands what kind of work we are talking about, please write. I've been tormenting Google with various variations of the query already
it was at Davga that I looked :D
Thank you very much, very much

And the dance in the club: he's on the couch, she's on the couch, and the movements are not dancing, but petting.

they compare it with a lot of things, but the idea and moments reminded me of the movie "the ABC of death" - there were also many studios working on the same topic, there were cartoons and films, and it seems there was some kind of similar series with a time loop, which, by the way, made it immediately clear to me.
reminded me of the episode in the Fifth Element with Ruby, and the character himself is similar)
and drawing in this series wins a lot)
And what kind of drawing
But I liked the series itself less than the previous ones.
From the very beginning, I expected some kind of "surprise" at the end, which eventually turned out to be🤷♀️ the time loop was not surprising
Probably because I've already looked at this topic too much.
Some kind of pornography
5/5, not bad
Drawing - standing ovation!!!
But it's very smartly done, and I can't help but wonder how cool it is.
The series is just a test!
And I also noticed that no one here noticed that at the very beginning this guy was lying in this girl's bed. It can be seen in the plan when she crouches down in fright so that she cannot be seen through the window. And then at the end he wakes up (and therefore without clothes) and looks out the same window.
Apparently, this is the very beginning of these loops, tapes, whatever you want to call them. After all, they clearly slept together (they are both naked and in a hotel) and judging by the girl's work, this is not a couple who came to the city on vacation and therefore lives in a hotel.
Apparently, the tape began with the fact that they woke up forgetting each other, because otherwise it would be strange to run away without showing any reaction at all to the fact that the killer from the window opposite was one-on-one with the guy you spent the night with (she didn't even look at the guy in her bed).

I really like everything, short, high-quality, thoughtful stories. Very cool!!!
Was I the only one waiting for robots to appear here?😆
It's amazing! Even the goosebumps from the end of the episode and the realization that this is a loop .
Perhaps a looped sleep or altered consciousness under the influence of drugs was shown.
