There's one particular scene where Motokazu and Saraka are yelling at each other, and when they're done arguing, Motokazu keeps yelling because he's still so excited about what he's talking about. The first time I watched it I found some of the acting very jarring. All Motokazu has to stop her is his guitar and his sushi. With some unwitting help from his naive questions, she's on a path of destruction and capable of carrying out the experiment for real. But Saraka isn't interested in mere academics. Motokazu and the reclusive genius Saraka team up on the research topic of creating a universe, which could arguably disprove the existence of God. She values herself over her students and money over love.
#PAZURU PAZUEU SERIES#
The synopsis of the series read as Misako Ayukawa, a woman in her 30s, is an English teacher with ironically poor English skills. The spectacular but impractical particle accelerator towers over a rice field tended by an old lady. Country: Japan, Pazuru is a (2008 ) Japan-Japanese language series, directed by and created by. The juxtaposition of science versus tradition is blatant. The latter seems to serve as a container for experiments to make you wonder what mysterious things she gets up to, but may also reflect her state of mind throughout the film. Other intriguing elements include a roller skating security guard, website-style buttons the characters press to bring up daydreams and flashbacks, and a bowl-shaped dent in the wooden floor of Saraka's room. However it is later revealed that he was hiding on a wing of the Planet Express ship and when Farnsworth was drowning in the Fountain of Aging, Pazuzu saved him and in reward Farnsworth granted him freedom. It makes for some hilarious moments as he tries to get his head around quantum physics and the Big Bang. Pazuzu is a gargoyle-like demon who Professor Farnsworth owned and put through college.Pazuzu escaped and due to Farnsworth's senility he could not be found. Not only does this create a reason for the physics to be explained in layman's terms, it also gives us a character who's primarily a sushi chef and a wannabe rockstar. When Miike was struggling to understand the physics in the novel, he came up with the idea to have the student run off overseas and leave his not-so-intellectual identical twin brother Motokazu to take his place for roll call. The film particularly appeals to armchair physicists such as myself, but there's more to it than just that. In fact, it was released just before the sensational headlines about the Large Hadron Collider, so it's unfortunate that it didn't get more attention. God's Puzzle gets mileage out of particle accelerator doomsday fears. Relatively lighthearted sci-fi based on a novel picked by the producer, and thus quite a departure from Takashi Miike's usual fare.
