History WesternAnimation / RockOdyssey

* BeastMan: A gang of these pursue Billy at a carnival to beat him up. Several seem to be a mix of various creatures (with pig snouts, rat-like tails, and bug antennas) while their leader is a green and pink rabbit man. Why are they after Billy and what are they doing in a world populated by regular humans? [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Who knows.]]

* FlatCharacter: ''All the characters'' qualify, as none have any depth. Even the protagonist, Laura, is enigmatic to the point that it's never even explained what she is (clearly something akin to a sorceress) or what her motivations are aside from finding love.

* SadClown: Billy is implied to be this during "The Great Pretender", where he literally transforms into a clown at certain parts to emphasize the point.

* MindScrew: Bizarre situations and inexplicably weird imagery appear throughout the film, and it's unclear what is supposed to be real or simply a fantasy sequence. Adding to the confusion is the fact that besides occasional narration from the jukebox, there is no dialogue to explain anything that's going on.

* ShellShockedVeteran: Bob returns from the UsefulNotes/VietnamWar this way.

* WarIsHell: In the '60s segment, Laura's love interest Bob is drafted into the UsefulNotes/VietnamWar. He returns with PTSD.

* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Laura is shown to be able to change into a panther at will.

It was never properly released in the United States and only screened once at the Los Angeles International Animation Celebration in 1987. There have been some overseas television airings, however. Due to music licensing issues, the film has [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes never had a release on home media]] and is hard to come by, even online.

* BrokenAesop: Playing the song "Just the Way You Are" over a scene where an AbhorrentAdmirer [[ShapeShifting shapeshifts]] into [[FusionDance an amalgamation]] of the heroine's love interests to make her like him really isn't representative of what the lyrics are about.
