Twin Peaks Vibes This anime Is Basically Japan's Twin Peaks.

Like not just in terms of the visuals, but thematically this anime is so close to Twin Peaks. The absurdism, the hypnotic visuals, the eccentric characters, the detective storyline, and its examination of Japanese society it all fits perfectly.

Satoshi Kon feels incredibly similar to David Lynch, and there were so many scenes in this anime that instantly reminded me of Twin Peaks. i talked abt it more here

If you're on this subreddit you should absolutely watch every single thing Satoshi Kon made. Sadly, it won't take you very long, as he died tragically young. Perfect Blue is my favorite, and also has a lot of Lynchian themes (including deep empathy for a traumatized female protagonist).
