SEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED is a day in the life of MachSpeed, a talking shark and the fastest detective around, who along with his sex doll girlfriend, Sex, and his gorilla-like bodyguard, Violence, solve crimes and scam people for money, leaving destruction and havoc in their wake. With a staff like that things were bound to get crazy, and that's exactly what happened. The short features designs by Shigeto Koyama, who's designed for anime varying from Star Driver, to Gurren Lagann, to Michiko & Hatchin, and was written by Hiromi Wakabayashi, the writer of Inferno Cop and multiple Panty & Stocking episodes. It'd probably come out the same either way in the end.įor those unaware, the director of the short, Hiroyuki Imaishi, is also the director of such shows as Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, and Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt. Either that, or it's what happens when you tell director Hiroyuki Imaishi to do whatever he wants in an eight and a half minute short.

It's what I imagine what would happen if you adapted the notebook doodles of a twelve year old who just saw an R-rated movie for the first time, as it's full of irreverent humor, ridiculous portrayals of sex, and action so senseless and over the top it borders on madness. But SEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED? It's pure concentrated insanity (in case you haven't guessed, this one is NSFW as well). Hey, remember Kanón? That short was crazy. So overall, I unequivocally recommend Kanón, even if the first time around you may not be entirely sure what you just saw. Nudity seems to be a pattern for Maeda in his shorts (along with immense creativity and great visuals). Oh, and I should note this short is not safe for work. The varied, but wholly unique, art direction and character designs are a big help as well, as it doesn't quite look like any other anime out there, but very much in a good way. It's great to look at as well: though the animation is hardly smooth, it's bursting with movement and almost always is doing something visually interesting. The way things escalate throughout is fascinating, and meaningful enough to be more than just senseless looniness. It's an experience of sorts, I just watched it all play out in sheer awe, taking in all the crazy imagery and bizarre dialogue. It's frantic, zany, and I sort of loved it. Even after the second time watching it, I felt like I missed or didn't fully understand half of what happened, and it should be noted that those who aren't fast readers will have serious trouble keeping up with the subtitles. The short moves at a breakneck pace, characters talk and move quickly and constantly as my brain simply tried to keep up. He then realizes he must face punishment for his actions in the form of becoming the new God and recreating the world. And with the press of a button he does just that, but makes a mistake: He doesn't destroy himself. It centers around a person who concludes that the world is all wrong, religion, politics, justice, all of it is wrong and the only logical option is to destroy the world itself.
