@DeltaD36 It is an interesting idea. I've also thought that the entire thing could have been a delusion in Itoshki's mind. I've tried to reconcile the fact that Itoshki isn't in every scene with the fact that one of his relatives usually is, and they all look alike. I'm not sure though.
I like how the OVA openings suggest an underlying plotline under the random zaniness that is Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei; though I only watched a few episodes of this, I think it's safe to say that this series would be a WHOLE LOT BETTER if it did.
Have you noticed in the 2nd OP of Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, it says "Even so, the circus will come," and then in this OP, at the beginning, it says "it came" and then the OP continues with a circus theme?
I'd say this intro (to be more specific, the parts from 0:52 to 1:03) contains the best analyzation and evaluation of Fuura Kafuka's emotional and mental health we'll ever get.
@that1dude0092 Is the sun bright? Easy confirmation is the episode where she convinces Chiri to act like a ditz, watch her expression when Chiri burns the school down. (seach youtube for ditz appeal)
@firialdeemanga Kafuka Fuura is the "Super Positive Girl". Essentially, Zetsubous opposite. However, her past is very Troubled, and many people who watch the series (Me included) have come to a theory that she's actually insane. Many things that she does and likes are very suggestive to someone who is not mentally stable... >_>
Oh there's no doubt about it, she's straight crazy lol. Remember the episode where Meru (cell phone girl) is presented? She looks into Kafuka's eyes and all she sees is "KILL KILL KILL".
Zetsubou and Kafuka are indeed opposites. Despair vs Optimism. However, I think they are trying to subtly paint the picture that blind optimism is the cancerous/frightening/strange thing. Many of the episodes have the loosely followed format of Zetsubou declaring what he despairs over...
everyone (the girls with their paper-thin trope personalities) weighs in on it, then Kafuka convinces everyone (at least partially) that her positive outlook is the way to go. You can even see that represented in this OP, at 0:38 all of the girl's heads turn into Kafuka's.
Ahhh :D I never noticed that Kafuka was throwing flowers on the dead bodies of her classmates, I thought she was just throwing flowers period. Thanks TvTropes! XDD;; I think XD
kafuka dances on the mountain top throwing flowers with a smile. When she extends her hand outward, it cuts to her alone. Afterwards the flowers become more extreme, erupting into the air.
Now flowers are flying through the sky, what Kafuka would want, but the same force is strangling her.
While Sensei is strangled by gravity, Kafuka hangs herself with the desire to fly away
This op shows us a much much more darker side of Kafuka......dancing on the pile of corpse with flower cover up, i dont think its call "positive" thinking LOL XD
0.04 have a "lie" word on Kafuka face, this even make she more dangerous than Chiri.
This has recently proven itself to be false. During the first season we saw the name Akagi on the register and asumed it was An or Kafuka's second name because of the Anne of Green Gables reference in the first episode. But in Kaga Ai's introduction episode we find that there is a student with the name Akagi in the class (she appears as a faceless student with only the classic SZS red name circle on her face). It's a shame, I thought the whole Anne of Green Gables thing was pretty cool. :(
Well of course. She would, she's not actually as sunny as she would seem. She's a psychopathic schizophrenic, why else would her mother kill herself (her father killed himself for other reasons) her names not even Kafuka. It's hidden.
oh btw at the end of this vid it has kafuka as the ring leader and itoshiki sensei as one of the clownes ha! the mother of his dispar wins! she controls his world! unlike chri who wants to kill whom ever tries to take him from her, or tries to kill him if he dosent do what she wants o_O, wepon of choice sharp shovel or a bucher knife it depends...
Well, it's referencing the line from the last OVA's opening, "Even so, the circus will come for you." In fact, if you pause just before the "It came" shot, you can see the hand tearing "Even so..." off the wall to reveal the circus.
you can always download op and ending themes, as well as songs within the series, at Gendou's anime music. I am not a promoter but just as a hint. they have quite a selection and tommrow this song will be up for download for non donators
There will be! ANN released that it's been green lit and put into production and will be released as "Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei." So rejoice and come out of despair
This was before i knew Zan was supposed to be an entire season, i thought it was just gonna be a couple of new oavs bro/sis ( too lazy to look up gender)
If you are talking about 1:00-1:01. That's not Fujiyoshi. Believe it or not that's Fuura Kafuka. She actually lets her hair down OVA episode 1 or 2, Can't remember.
