Shin Sekai Yori has some really interesting parallels to Psycho-Pass if you haven't seen that.

I've been watching the anime Shinsekai Yori the other day after randomly finding it in my HDD. It's not like anything I've ever watched before, it's really been a profound experience watching it.

Shinsekai is really good. Interestingly, while watching it, I found myself rooting for Squealers from the very beginning. I was kind of disappointed when they failed to eradicate the humans and got pushed back to where they came from. Squealer did nothing wrong and fuck the human tyranny.

I've been watching Made In Abyss, which is really good. I'll check Devilman out after I'm done.

Made In Abyss was 10/10. It had the saddest scene I've ever seen in an anime.

The saddest scene in anime is The Scene with Grimmer.

ep13 is even better

Speaking of depressing stuff I've been reading the Saishuu Heiki Kanojo manga. Don't know if it is because I know the ending because I watched the anime ~8+ years ago or my tastes have changed and made it more compatible with me or the manga is just the superior version but I am finding it extremely tragic.

Yes, ep 13 was better overall, and also really sad. But ep 10 was the only one that was hard to watch for me.

Easily the best anime i've seen in years.

You already know it gets dark right from the first episode, but it gets really dark in the later episodes
DaddyCoolVipper
Yeah, the first episode set the tone pretty well- the way she so casually asked if her arm was broken made me realise like, "oh shit, this world is grim". The monster design is pretty amazing too.

My favourite one was the Hippopotamus/Rabbit thing

I prefer the animation work done by her younger brother Yoh Yoshinari but Kou Yoshinari is a literal god. How the fuck do you hand draw and animate something like that???

It has a lot of parallels to the novel Brave New World. Especially considering the title translates to "From The New World", if I had to guess I'd say that it was an inspiration to it. Also, I think that the song that plays in the speakers in the anime is from a part of the New World Symphony.

Reading something like Brave New World or watching this anime, it makes you think, humans shouldn't be treated like cattle in farms, right?

why did your post only reference like the most well known books and music lmfao "oh have you heard of this cool book called 1984" lmao

okay.

Any 'Authoritarian Leadership' genre work is going to have similarities to the others. Brave New World is just the most obvious point of influence. No need to make a list of every single one. Additionally you risk making dangerous assumptions assuming all influential western works have had the same impact in Japan.

I do think it is interesting that Shin Sekai Yori and Psycho-Pass respond to their control structures as more a necessary evil rather than something to be prevented. It's probably a mix of the two but one has to think whether this is a difference in East/West perspective or just a result of modern era paranoia.
