It’s almost shocking to think that this book came out in 1991, as it seemingly describes the toxic fandoms of today. That’s not to say there is no depth here, the film just covered more topics from the fandom to the creative process. Less Hitchcock and more 70s style slasher film (when suspense was still more important than the kill count). The book and the film have only a passing similarity, as other than the initial plot description, are completely different. It had a lot of depth and an almost Hitchcock-feel to it. It was one of the first shockingly adult anime films I saw and one with great rewatchability to decipher all the hidden details. One man in particular finds this a personal insult, and he's willing to go to any lengths to get his old Mima back.Īs with probably a good portion of the readers of this novel, I first learned of Perfect Blue from the brilliant Satoshi Kon animated film. While it looks like this might help the sales of her latest album, some fans are not taking it so well. She's stayed with the pure "good girl" image since the start, and now is time to go with something a little more risqué. She has a dedicated, some might even say obsessive, fanbase, but its obvious to her its time for a change. Mima is a Japanese pop idol, who has been in the business for some time, and seems to be growing less culturally relevant with time.
