Paranoia Agent episode 13 [2/4]

[walk0nwalls]

The scene is about love, in my opinion. Ikari made a promise to Misae to be there for her through her disappointments and failures, told her that she was worth something even if there wasn't a place for her in society; there was a place for her beside his side. When he lost his very sense of identity, she brought him back saying the exact same thing. She loved him for who he was just as he loved her for who she was, even if they didn't have a place in society.

"All this for a puppy." You said it, detective.

[syko567890]

What is the music cue that starts at 4:14?

[Drameo]

@syko567890

@sgtOOX

Kingdom - Susumu Hirasawa

[Riposte8]

This scene(with the wife) stuck me as emotional. I was almost tearing up and I never do that for anything. Weird

[narutorulestheworld1]

Question: Does anyone know where I can get the music for that part after his wife dies & he's breaking everything in the fake world?

I have the soundtrack, but as far as I know, it doesn't have that piece. If anyone has a video with just that part, I could use that, too. (I'd convert it to mp3.) I think it was the best piece of music in the whole series, aside from the opening, so I really want it.

[sgtOOX]

@narutorulestheworld1 same here ive hunted everywhere for it

[Drameo]

@narutorulestheworld1

It's called Kingdom by Susumu Hirasawa. You can find it on youtube.

[PolyRuni]

A dying, loving wife's consciousness reaches over to a broken man who is living the life he has always wanted, but was achieved in a dishonest way, her call back to him to reality and his destruction of this false, story book world will always be remembered as one of my favorite scenes in anime history.

A certain game that came out a few years ago that also deals with this subject of one facing themselves, that is one of the best RPGs for ever made, obviously had some inspiration here.

[Bloodyidit]

@PolyRuni

Persona?

[PolyRuni]

@Bloodyidit

Bingo! Persona 4 reminded me of this show right off the bat. I saw it as a sort of homage to it. Not to say it copied it or anything, just some similarities that seemed to be inspired from it.

[verfasd]

ahaha YES ! Akira Refference.

[305SEGA305]

one of the most epic scenes. omg i love it

[finalefate]

tehy finally caught joker...



[warhead213]

is this the last episode because i cant find episode 14 anywhere?

[AFDex16]

@warhead213 yup

[GreyMatter00Duh]

Am I the only one that cries when The Chief starts to talk about how he didn't want a son to when he escapes the phony world?

[GreyMatter00Duh]

Why does Misae's death always make me cry?

[BloodyMonkeyInc]

8:40 Ohh Noo! our hero just got B***h slapped into oblivion!

[fromstart2finish]

THIS WORLD IS ALL FAKE

*smash*

crowd of people:O___O

favorite scene in this ep

[Hurtex]

Not even the truth "the sword of truth" can defeat paranoia.

[kickymcface]

It's like poetry; sometimes it means one thing to one person but to others it could mean a whole different thing.

and really you can't be truly right OR wrong =)

[sonsonfox]

This is one of the most epic scenes, I've ever seen tbh.

I have the entire series on Dvd.

Absolutely love Paranoia Agent

[Random012c]

havnt seen this in a very long time

[xhydropumpx]

There is more than 10 million meanings in this show.

[christianmetalgear]

same vincent i brought 2 copys of the soundtrack and its not in it!

[2dtesseract]

i wonder if there is any significance to the fact that a bat is awlays used to destroy delusions (ex: Lil Slugger, Maniwa, and this scene with Ikari)

[vincentninja68]

4:10, I want this song!!

[KaoriBlue]

Please let me know if you find it! I went out and purchased the OST, and it isn't on it... :-(

[KaoriBlue]

Vincent,

It's a slight remix of "Kingdom" by Susumu Hirasawa.  Someone has a video of it here - watch?v=GMEp6lUBsrE

[azuredream23]

Did lil slugger "heal" the other people are did he just provide them a chance to escape their different realities?

[KnightoftheColossus]

The cheif overcomes doubts, lies and avoiding reality all in one scene... EPIC!

[sgtOOX]

@KnightoftheColossus truly inspirational

[Simone4447]

4:13 to 5:14 sounds very good to bad its not longer or can be downloaded to an ipod.

[TebulotVIII]

an ipod huh? how about you say MP3 PLAYER.

fucking hell.

[graver7]

YES!! I love your tone there. Not that I have anything against the guy's use of ipod, but still, i know just where you're coming from.

Suck it teenagers and Apple! Cultural frustration ftw!!!

[yezelsqueeze]

For me, the best part of the series by far was when Ikari found the strength to brake free of the phony world.

[pein260]

oh my God yes. the music is epic, the scene is epic. when he returns to reality it is AWESOME!

[mogang911]

omfg its epic win right there.. i like it when he said "who're u calling dad?"

he finally woke up

[sgtOOX]

@yezelsqueeze amen to that the music that goe swith it too gives me goosebumps

[LeviathanMexicana]

@yezelsqueeze crap I thummbed down on accident. Forgive me stranger, for I wholeheartedly agree.

[LeviathanMexicana]

@yezelsqueeze crap I thummbed down on accident. Forgive me stranger, for I wholeheartedly agree.

[K3NJehXD]

If I need to repeat myself, the song where the chief gets the bat and destroys everything is Kingdom by Susumu Hirasawa. It is not on the OST, but if you ask me through a PM, I will gladly send it to you.

[oalejis]

i like how all the other people are cardboard. makes them insignificant. they are insignifikant.

[sssssz]

It's also following an old Japanese comics style. That scene was executed quite well. I hope more lotus-eater sequences were done like this. :p

[datcripgang101]

so what happend in the last final episode?

[johnnecron]

CALL ME DADDY!

[RichardHannay]

That part with Misae was quite sad... *wipes tear*

[AkatsukiDalek]

heh heh paper people turn into mini marooni's when they are hit. LOL XD

[cookiechicken]

I lol'd when Maniwa got slammed into the building.

[006paynebringer]

I lol'd when he went into a geek outfit, and proceeded to get fused with the building

[DEATH2REDNECKS]

i've been searching everywhere to downloade that song (for free) but can't find anything. can anyone help me please?

[fusionproductions]

This was my absolute favorite scene from that amazing anime. The 'Chief' was seen as being a hero of sorts, and his wife who was dying brought him back to reality ... it was just beautiful.

Satoshi Kon is a genius :)

[Jamzkangster]

lol dam i remember watching this show on adult swim like a year back, loving it hahaha.

[person1259]

wow, this is the first episode i saw, its amazing....

[colourbubble]

stress to watch this anime,going to watch some comedy anime later

[noodlenutter]

i finaly get the story!

[WonSab]

Yup. It's amazing how much trouble one lie can cause...

[EPlCFAlLGUY]

butterfly effect in action. Really awesome in this series.

[WonSab]

Indeed. You can't go wrong with background-shattering scenes, either.

[AnimaMundi22]

Some one know what is the name of the song when the detective's wife die and tsukiko call him father?

[Jhoxesp]

During the talk between Misae and her husband, the song is "Reverie Hill", if you're talking about the dramatic music where the older detective destroys the fake world, it was never released to the public. I've spent a long time looking.

[kingjamie2]

really? damn I've spent a long time searching myself but never wanted to believe that the best song in the whole damn show was never actually released.

[K3NJehXD]

The song where the detective's wife dies and Tsukiko calls him father is Kingdom by Susumu Hirasawa. You can't find it on the Paranoia Agent OST, but you can find it in his album known as Switched-On Lotus.

[AnimaMundi22]

Thanks man! i like this song so much and susumu's music thank you very much!!!!

[K3NJehXD]

If you want it, PM me.

[Troix311]

You are amazing. I was enraged when that song wasn't on the OST. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

[shuffledayz]
