Angel's Egg (1985)... An Unexplainable OVA | Not Lost Media

What came first?

Obviously the Egg. An egg otherwise known as Mamoru Oshii's 1985 OVA: Tenshi no Tamago (Angel's Egg). An incredibly bizarre and introspective film that languished in obscurity for most of its existence. The film was so strange it almost destroyed Oshii's career before he even had it. But it did not. Nor was Angel's Egg ever lost. Eventually, relatively recently in fact, it was revived. For a film so infamously obscure, how did this animated parable become so popular on YouTube and what does it even mean?

Like the film, simply wait and listen for the rain.
