Extra

About This Movie

So, Extra is quite the trip, right? It started life as a music video for Ken Ishii’s track, and then they fleshed it out into this 20-minute OVA. The animation style is gritty, and the atmosphere is heavy with violence and dystopian vibes. You see a future where humans and robot-aliens are in this brutal, relentless war. It’s not just action for the sake of it; there’s a certain depth in the chaos, almost a commentary on existence. The pacing is relentless, keeping you on edge, and the practical effects add a rawness that heightens the experience. It’s a unique blend of animation and music that captures a specific mood, making it feel distinct within the genre.
