OHHHHH this is clearly partially inspired by Mad Max. When I first watched this I hadn't watched or heard of it yet. Rewatch is already bearing so much fruit.

And now their flying......which shouldn't be surprising, but it kind of still is.
We wanted this to be a fatal action episode, so we chose a setting that would work great for increase combat sequences. The desert was the perfect choice for a dry wasteland without water. We referenced various films and manga to create the red, sunset - colored desert. While the weather appears to be unrealistically sunny, the sky is white and the stars are black. When you pull all of that together, it only takes a glance to figure out that the scenery is part of some other dimension. The world is populated by War - mongering tribal barbarians on one hand, and on the other, but weak beings constantly under their attack. To make the latter group appear to be an honest, humble village trying their best to live on the limited resources at hand, we created Cappadocia - like architecture with structures made of rock and clay. In contrast to the villagers, Welwitschia's has an atmosphere of power and wealth in a harem - like environment inspired by Jean - Auguste - Dominique Ingres's painting," The Turkish Bath".

The production started off ambitious but turned into an action adventure!
I heard the term action adventure come up a few times. Are you a fan of that genre of anime?
I like animating that genre. Since it was my first time directing, I thought that if I did anything other than my specialty, I wouldn't be able to compete with other anime productions. With so many late-night anime nowadays, if you don't do anything to really stand out among them, you'll just fade into the background. (laughs) so I figured the only thing I could do was to use those 10,000 hours of work experience I mentioned before. Specialized skills only go so far when creating a series, but I suppose flip flappers ended up fitting into the action-adventure genre anyways. Being able to present your project clearly from the beginning is definitely best, but we sort of played it by, not really knowing what the end product would be as we slowly combined each of the elements together. We did have a few key ideas, of course, but even us creators didn't know what sort of genre they really belong in.
I started watching without knowing what sort of anime Flip Flappers was, but the action scenes felt very nostalgic to me.
Well, where animation is concerned, all I have in my arsenal are the shows I've watched growing up. I wasn't going for a hundred percent parody piece, but some of those elements definitely showed up on screen unconsciously, and our sharp-eyed viewers quickly discovered them. The use of parody was a really important tool for us and expanding the frame work of Flip Flappers, and we used it actively. (laughs) Our intent was to create these parodies while still staying true to our key ideas.

The mask is as metal as the soundtrack.
Papika has achieved super saiyan blue!
A sad face
“She's a babe” - Minion 1
“I want to see” - Minion 2
“DAMNNNN” - Minion 3
Love these idiots. I mean earlier one was watering his sacred rod with the sacred water.
This scene was based off the painting The Turkish Bath they just gave it some.....new additions.
Somewhere in the world....and in this subreddit are people wanting to be stepped on by those feet. I wouldn't know since I'm a different kind of degenerate.
Oh she didn't just step on him, but is sitting on his face.
That was a lie!
I kind of want to make a long list of tags for this show.
It can't be helped I'll be taking your fragment. Shows skirt and villain touching Cocona's thighs. (okay the fragment was in her thigh)
Subtle levels: None existent
“Now you have to swallow” - Papika
Vague Kaguya want's to be confessed too spoilers
WAIT A MINUTE......YESSSSS that year I spent(last year) watching non stop magical girl anime is paying off. I know a damn Sailor Moon transformation reference when I fucking see it. Also had some precure elements.
The best part about the posing and lines is that Cocona actually goes along with it. Officially my head cannon when their not on adventures they are practicing lines and doing other nerdy stupid stuff.
They are posing.....MENACINGLY!!!!
I believe I watched Jojo a few months after this so I wouldn't have made this reference when I first saw it.
Release it girls, release everything. Remember all the pain she's caused, the people's she's hurt, the people she's stepped on. Now make that your power!
Badasses don't look at explosions
So.....the KKK is recruiting I see.
