I ask this in the best faith way I can:

does Ikuhara like incest? what do y'all think it's his take on it, based on his works? (mostly about Mawaru Penguindrum, with Kanba to Himari, and Himari to Shoma) I was sure I knew what his stance was based on RGU (Akio and Anthy, Miki and Kozue), but rewatching it... I'm not sure

i made this one a while back but forgot to post. i need to archive them somewhere. here you go

I spent 1.5 days on this 🎶🥁

Do you believe in fate?

Ikuhara shows are not only designed for literary analysis, they’re designed for only literary analysis. They take it from "the curtains are blue because X is depressed" to "if X is depressed the blue curtains will be present even if X is in a field". It becomes impossible to talk about the blue curtains without talking about how X is depressed. You can't extrapolate that maybe X likes blue in their interior decorating. You can't even extrapolate anything about what kind of person would put curtains in a field. There is no Watsonian level.
