An analysis of Satoshi Kon’s 1997 psychological horror anime, “Perfect Blue,” and a look at it how it depicts a mental breakdown by putting viewers in the headspace of lead character Mima Kirigoe, what it says about fame in the internet age, and how its editing, shot composition, and animation are used to depict dissociation in this disturbing and awesome piece of horror filmmaking.
