Other than Eva, does anyone know any other anime that will screw up your mind worse than watching FLCL?

I sort of mentioned it because it's by director Satoshi Kon, but I haven't seen it myself, so I didn't feel right about recommending it.

Ah, I didn't see that, lol. Yeah it's pretty screwy...as it progresses the episodes just make less and less sense.

I recommend Paprika highly, especially right before bed.

Anyway, some that haven't been mentioned...  Darkside Blues is pretty out there, though I don't know how much of a Mind Screw it would be.

I can also help to identify bootlegs, if you have a questionable item, send me a message and some pictures if you can and I'll get back to you when I can.

That anime made absolutely no sense to me. No matter what anyone tried to explain or point out... if they're trying to get a message across, they should try and do it in a less confusing manner next time around...lol.

I found "The SoulTaker" to be quite the mind job, personally.  Mostly because the artstyle was freakin' psychedelic for the majority of the show.

I can't believe it slipped my mind:  Noein.  If you're not careful, details WILL lose you, you won't lose track of details, they will lose you instead.

Ergo Proxy has its fair share of trippy moments itself.

Am I the only one that thinks that?
