Pikyaw is an interesting piece from 2014, set in Iloilo, a city that really brings out this stark contrast between human life and the chaotic realm of Calixto. The animation catches your eye, though it’s not the typical polished look you’d expect; it has this raw edge that fits the story's themes of anarchy and decay. The pacing feels deliberate, letting the viewer soak in the desolation that Albion’s reign has cast over everything. What stands out is how it intertwines humor with darker elements, almost like a twisted fairy tale. The atmosphere is heavy yet whimsical at times, making it an engaging watch. The performances, while animated, carry a certain weight that pulls you deeper into this strange world.
