Filmography[edit | edit source]
Music From Another Reality: Electric City Strikers (Potentially 1972)[edit | edit source]
Arcangelo Alpaca is featured in this film, in a scene similar to the one which plays out in YIIK. William explains that Kisage X picked four random characters (presumably from his own films, but also it is mentioned that one of them is from another filmmaker's work) and made them the main characters in this movie. The film features scenes from each character's respective film, but in their own perspective.
Illicit Presence (Before 1973)[edit | edit source]
Not much is known about this film. It is the origin of the concept of "Angel Stocks" seen in his movies. While most of his films use the same composer, this one did not.
One of the songs on the 1.25 Soundtrack is named in reference to this film, an illicit presence.
Electric City Golgotha: Crufusion (Potentially 1974-1975)[edit | edit source]
The studio involved with producing the film pressured Kisage X into naming it "Electric City." The name he desired was "Wrong Soul Requiem."
During the filming of this movie, actress Furutani Asuka was to be put into an Iron Maiden for a scene. However, once the prop was opened up, she wasn't there. The crew never found her.
The film was re-released in 1998 on VHS, with the given synopsis on the back:
The Year is 38XX PPC. The 30 pieces of bloodless silver have been stolen. With these tempest metals, any evil deed, no matter how transcendental, can be brokered. Arcangelo Alpaca, Interdimensional Demi-god, Savior of Shattered Space, must travel through dangerous dimensions and diabolical hellscapes of terror and awe to stop the thieves before it’s too late. In the far reaches of reality lies his destination: Electric City Golgotha. A seedy underbelly of Angel Stocks, and Digital Soul Vessels. At the center of this debauchery is the COUNCIL OF DIMENSION BIZZARE ESQUIRE. The motive and identity of the silver thieves is known only to this Shadow Firm. By Holy Judgement’s Blade, he will track down the King and Queen seeking to make the dastardly purchase, no matter the risk. Armed with the All-Seeing Eyes of God and Gleaming Fur, the Golden Warrior will travel to the ends of time and space to prevent a corporate merger from hell.
Black Pond Cocktail (1978)[edit | edit source]
A half-fish half-boy named Sakana is recently given consciousness. He meets a wizard named Wizarro that tells him to find and drink water or else he will die. Sakana travels up the mountains from where he was born, and finds a blackened pond. As he drinks from it, a creature from within threatens to drown him if he can't answer the question: "Why do we live? Why do we die? Why do we suffer?"
It is currently unknown what happens next in the film, as the legend of what happened during the first screening is prioritized more. After the creature asks Sakana these questions, the projector failed and there was a nearly 3 hour wait until the film started back up again. After the confusion and anger, the crowd began to shout out their own answers to the question, and began improvising the plot themselves. It's apart of tradition for any screening of the movie to have the audience shout out their answers to the question.
Gashapon toys were created for the characters, but were cancelled due to the premiere. Only 250 were produced. Because of the low quantity and cult status of the film, they became valuable collector's items. A set of Wizarro and Sakana sold for $182,000 in 2053.
The movie is featured in the first Kisage X Fanzine entry, a zine organized by the eccentric Fanzina. Members apart of the e-mail chain answered the notorious question from the movie.

The Blackened Pond (1992)[edit | edit source]
“I’m jealous of my own reflection. Mirrored and flat, like a frame from a movie. I’m envious of myself. But only when my life is reflected back at me. This is the first Original Sin; CompariSin.”
- Scribe of ONI-SOM.
A non-human little girl finds a blackened pond that, when looked into, shows a parallel reality that is better than the one he currently lives in. This knowledge makes the kid realize how much better the world could be and has him criticize reality for the way it is.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- He went bald from high testosterone in his late 30s.[1]
- His wife appreciated the change, as she loved him for his mind, not his famous "Reverse Greaser" hairstyle.[2]
- Though an exact age isn't known, he's somewhere past his late 30s during YIIK I.V.[3]
