Twilight Q (トワイライトQ, Towairaito Kyū)

Twilight Q (トワイライトQ, Towairaito Kyū) is a 1987 Japanese original video animation (OVA) series, often described as Japan's answer to The Twilight Zone. It consists of two standalone ~30-minute episodes with surreal, philosophical, and mysterious themes involving time, reality, and the unexplained. Episode 1: Time Knot: Reflection (時の結び目 Reflection)Directed by Tomomi Mochizuki. A young woman named Mayumi finds an old camera while snorkeling. The developed photos show her with a man she doesn't recognize. The camera turns out to be a model not yet released to the public. The story spirals into time paradoxes, memory, and shifting realities, with Mayumi becoming "unstuck in time." Episode 2: Mystery Article File 538 (迷宮物件 File538)Directed and written by Mamoru Oshii (famous for Ghost in the Shell). This is the episode featured in the viral clip you shared earlier. It involves mysterious airplane disappearances. A passenger plane suddenly transforms into a giant koi carp (still flying/swimming through the sky), and passengers vanish. A detective investigates a strange apartment with a koi flopping on a bed and a young child who refers to airplanes as "fish." The animation of the plane breaking apart into fish-scale-like debris is highly praised for its hand-drawn detail and surreal beauty.
