Zach Love Kon Satoshi: Director of the Surreal My paper focuses on Kon Satoshi’s four anime movies that he directed. They are, in order of release, Perfect Blue (1997), Millennium Actress (2001), Tokyo Godfathers (2003), and Paprika (2006.) While I plan to analyze these movies from multiple angles, one of the main overarching topics will of course be Kon’s trademark surrealism. The way Kon blends realistic portrayals with other dream-like sequences is very interesting. These are honestly not

Not only was this journey a significant scientific feat, but it also proved that scientists had underestimated the use of a simple balsa wood raft by ancient people.

According to Joseph Campbell’s The Power of Myth, one archetypal mythic hero appears in diverse cultures in different forms. Two protagonists in Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist and Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki share similar heroic characteristics despite their different backgrounds and cultures.

The two character’s I’ve decided to compare was Johnny Bravo and Brock from Pokémon. These two shows are completely different from each other. One show focuses on a young man who is looking to pick up attractive young women, while the other focuses on a group of friends exploring the world of Pokémon. I never really got into Johnny Bravo when I was a kid, although my cousin adored the show, I have in recent years gone back and watched Johnny Bravo and I highly enjoy the show’s comedic premise.

unlike Mima and her split-self. Kon likened himself to his character by talking about what he likes to call 'Hoodlum Kon and Satoshi Kon'. He describes these two side as the following, “In the realm of animation, I don't like people who try and push some technique they've just learned in your face. It's low class, like a hoodlum.” Though this is how he describes it, he himself has a side to him that is exactly that: his hoodlum side.
