Elden Ring influenced by The Puppet Princess anime (2000)

 Not sure if it is the original manga/anime that started a thing yet, but it is from 2000 and has the “dolls” and/or puppet ninjas that seem a lot like those in Elden Ring. The floppy arm leg thing, the whole rag-doll physics. Mechanical clockwork parts internally. The wild spinning arms attack.  But not actually four arms (funny how it appears to be four in the animation for a moment though, see blue guy picture #3 below… coincidence?). .

Bad puppets above early in the movie. 



Good ninja puppet with spinning attack. 


Elden Ring Marionette Soldiers above.

The Marionette soldiers do a horizontal spin attack, here: https://youtu.be/f3GDuYm9blw?t=87 . They also have some spazzy freak out malfunction attacks where it's more all their arms in a vertical spin, see here: https://youtu.be/qK_dOjCuqDc?t=12
