It's a magical world

During the big chase scene (the one where she turns into a mermaid and then Pinocchio and then Sun Wukong) the Chairman's lackey dude gives her butterfly wings, which are pinned to an exam table, and then he talks about how he's 'finally caught' her, gropes her, and then literally shoves his hand inside her body, splitting the 'skin' of Paprika to reveal the everyday face of our main character. Without any clothes on. And then the chairman sort of grows out of him and his hand on her neck turns into tree roots that go down her throat. --Basically, it's a rape scene, even though the straight-up facts of the situation could be described as not actually being rape. The similar scenes in Perfect Blue are part of the overall story & theme, so they don't hit me nearly as bad as that exam table scene does.
