Phil Hoad · The Guardian 80.00/100.00

Retrofitting medieval Noh as a world of guitar gods and cavorting dancers, Inu-oh has its two disabled lead characters make a psychedelic plea in favour of slipping loose from dominant narratives, told in a fecund patchwork of styles by Yuasa that asserts its own outsider credentials.

冷冻超人 5.00/5.00

画风很怪诞,但是剧情很写实。为了留下他的项上人头,你答应不再有瓜葛不再见面,可是他为了吟唱你的故事不惜血溅滩涂。终于恢复了人形但沦为了权贵的玩物,在历史长河中只剩下模糊的面目。幸好找了他600年后,你还可以用最初的面貌,与他相汇,赤脚跳一曲独脚仙。瞎子跟怪物,就是天生一对,像两片不规整的碎片,此刻完整地对合了。

Kambole Campbell · Polygon 90.00/100.00

It’s a psychedelic, bombastic rock opera, but amid all the energy, Yuasa ponders what stories have been lost as society’s more controlling elements attempt to control how art is made and distributed.
