As someone with great interest in the nature of human sexuality and connection, especially in the form of 'abnormal' or fetishistic behaviour, an anime titled "Fetish Doll" under the "dementia" category will inevitably catch my eye. There are two ways one might approach this four minute long acid trip of an animated short - the first is that of contempt and/or indifference, the second would make you sound like the most pretentious person ever to write an anime review. Either you will raise your eyebrows at it and move on, or you will think about it for 10 minutes, nod your head and shrug in acceptanceand/or approval and move on. It's not a short that will change your life, but it's only 4 minutes long, so how much of a waste of time can it really be? Basically, Fetish Doll is comprised of a bunch of hand-drawn depictions of body parts (mostly ears, hands, and, well, dicks), flowers and abstract shapes interacting with and morphing into one another. In my opinion, it essentially shows sex and fetishism as a means of communication in a pretty undramatic expository fashion, and what makes me think this is the inclusion of the ear as a symbol and the way it is interacted with for lack of a better phrase. Of course, anyone who watches this film, or anything for that matter, will inevitably project their own meaning onto what is occurring based on their personal perspective, and in this case it's more evident than in most since there is no narrative or evident purpose in what you're viewing. In my personal perspective, Fetish Doll makes me think of the concept of objectification and the way in which we give meaning/sensuality to the way in which we communicate with our bodies. There really isn't much you can say about the film without talking about yourself and your own perspective, and if that was deliberate, it might actually be a little ingenious.
