What was that OVA-like 1st half of the episode? Seriously, that looked more like some bonus episode that comes out with a manga volume or collection rather than beginning of a show. If they cut after all the characters came to the house, clearly lusting for the owner, - that could have worked, but they stretched it out to at least half the runtime.
The 2nd part was not particularly good either. I…
I am not sure if I can get over these twintails. Each one of them is like a separate human. In fact, early in the episode you can see how they cover 2 chairs to the sides of Ririsa. But that's not all: they also look as if some unripened fruit with those green points. This just looks ridiculous.
As an anime, though... I was ready to drop it, considering how boring the most of the episode was. It…
An edgier Rudy? The character is different, obviously, but I can't escape the feeling that he is also similar in some way. He also reminds of some other anime, not sure which one, where some "evil" dude was reincarnated and became "good". Or maybe it was not even an anime.
Anyway, too early to say for sure whether this will be good. The setup so far seems good, quite balanced. There were quite a…
That time travel animation is too long. Painfully long. Not sure why I even tried watching this, probably, just to know how the stupid premise will be presented. But it's extremely stupid no matter how you look at it. Let alone it does not explain how the heck did the girl learn, that those who see her boobs become immune? But yeah, this just your regular ecchi anime, nothing really special.
Autistic girl in a world not aware of autism. Or, at least, it looks like that may be the case: people with ASD often are bad at presenting emotions, and can have high affinity to things, especially when forced to mask. Especially, when people around are total dicks. I get it, that when you expect someone to smile, and they don't it may feel uncomfortable or disheartening, especially for people…
Something feels off about this one. I can't put my finger on it, but I think it's something about the tech, like something is missing from the exposition. But not only that, the approach to narrative is also of the "a lot of things seem to be happening at once", and I am not sure it works that well here. Yes, the story so far suggests some background behind characters, their relationships and the…
This show made very little sense.
So, the older witch did not tell the girl about the imminent death at a (relatively) exact moment, but decided to not share it before the girl had exactly 1 year left to live. But then the way to save the girl is for the girl to collect "tears of joy" (which already turned out to be a soft requirement, at least), specifically 1000 of those. With just 365 days. So 2…
Not bad, but not my genre. This looks to be a selection of short stories in and about a ballpark. It already had some wholesomeness, and I would expect more to come. Humor is good, "leveled" even, I would say, but nothing special. Ruriko is definitely extremely adorable, and I like that she already seems more complex than just "adorable idiot". But still, this is looks like a completely chill…
Alternative universe where Nezuko became evil. Because it was her who loved Tanjiro, and not vice versa. Of course, it's not the only difference, but it's difficult not to compare brother-sister relationship to Demon Slayer, since in both cases it's kind of a trigger for the story.
Jokes aside, though, this definitely has a much more "grounded" feeling, there is some extra "weight", and less "…
Personally, if you or your friend/relative is consideringColumbia Universitynow - just don't and ask them to reconsider. I can agree that this tool and the whole experiment can be seen as "immoral" by some, because... Well, no-one likes a cheater (and I am saying this as someone who usesWeModin majority of single-player games I play). But this was not the point of it all, in my understanding.
First episode was such a drag. I get what they were trying to do here, but I did not feel anything. Nothing at all. The episode was made to make us feel pity for the guy and it was meant to justify his "rage", but I am not sure it meshes that well with the character that we actually saw, since it looked like he was kind of submissive and without much of a spine. So while it probably would make…
It is definitely worse than the previous 2 games in the series.Coteries of New YorkandShadows of New York(andHeart of the Forest) may not have been perfect, but they were the games, that made me think, that some of my ideas probably can work as visual novels, if I ever get to those, while before I did not even consider the genre. If Reckoning was the first game, that would not have been the…
Where did they get such a robust table fan, that managed to work for several decades, at least? 😂
Overall, I'd say that most of the 1st episode was kind of pointless. I understand its purpose from story perspective, in a book it probably works better, but in the show - not really. There was no "survival movie" atmosphere here, not that many details that could give us a glimpse into the character's…
It's tough, but I will be searching for a suitable alternative to Acronis True Image Home (or Cybersecurity Home, whatever the current naming scheme is). And no, not because of the need to pay subscription for backup solution (or "security" components, that I do not really need). It's because of poor tech support.
Acronis has been the best backup solution for me after several apps that I tried:…
Boring. Just plain old boring. And that's even with the fast pacing, which probably requires a separate skill to achieve. There is absolutely nothing, that stands out here and grabs attention. Prison breakout, all prisoners are supposed serial killers, and all of them were supposed to be dead, but we kept alive, because... Just because.
The reason told to us in 1st episode does not even make sense…
I was skeptical. I mean, I was not a fan of "New Blood", and arguably the last season of the original show (maybe even last 2). The moment I saw the opening though - I knew, it will be good. They were able to recreate same vibes for it, as the original series without really copying it, which is not an easy task for any sequel or prequel. But the show was done with care. Felt almost like "for fans…
I have one specific association with this movie. Actually, a memory.
I am somewhere like 12-14 years old, at a friend's country house. I went to bed already on 2nd floor of the house, same as him, but the all adults party is still going on down below. Too loud for me to easily fall asleep. At some point I hear how my friend's parents start arguing mostly covering the party sounds (but not…
I don't get people using services for data removal services. I mean, I get the general idea, that is the desire to remove your data from services, that you do not use, but I've always found these companies, "selling" data removal a bit fishy. A couple of years back I actually tried DeleteMe out of curiosity, and when it asked for continuous access to my emails, that was a huge red flag, and I…
I've seen a lot of hate towards Blizzard. Not sure why, since I do not play their games, but I guess news about them did blow out to general news, that reach even me. Aside from some obvious controversaries, I did not care about the company, but since I recently Ibid farewellto Microsoft (or, at least, antrying to) I had to login to Battle.net. Because I am updating email (and password) in…
This is a new peak for romantic comedies. At least if you do not expect a hard-boiled horror. Which the trailer kind of implied, but not necessarily, so I do understand somewhat low ratings. But if you watch this like a dark comedy - it's great.
I have not have this much fund watching a movie in quite some time now. It has quite a good balance in terms of humor: not that dark most of the time, not…
This is not about a boy. Which makes it feel practically like false advertisement, considering that the trailer suggests otherwise. In fact, I'd say that the trailer has covered most of the highlights where the boy was, indeed, the focus. There are only a couple more scenes besides that.
So what's the movie is about really? I think it tried to be about a couple, at first, but then it became more…
Better thanKraven, for sure. Potentially better thanMadame Web, since the story is a bit more cohesive and generally makes more sense. Still not good, though.
I was not particularly a fan of Winter Soldier movie, but it was far superior, simply because of crazy dynamics, feeling of high stakes and explosive (both literally and figuratively) action scenes. This movie does not have either. There is…
Trash, but kinda fun. At least if you manage your expectations.
It's definitely not realistic, especially passengers' behavior (even considering one of the "plot twists"). Some plot points are underdeveloped, too. In fact, the whole plot is kind of meh. But I do not think this was filmed to delivery a super enticing story either way. I think the goal was to have a somewhat unhinged fighting movie.…
Is this meant to be PG yandere? What's the moral of the story really? I could not relate to Yuu at all, since she was so manipulative from the start. If she told NEWS that she specifically wanted friends from each school - that would have been fine. If she told them that she wanted them to become idols from the start - that would have been fine. But this was like... What?
The biggest thing I do…
Felt like mostly a cash-grab.
First thing that caught my attention right away is that the animation and style in general felt a bit different from the previous movies and main TV show. Was not able to understand what exactly felt different, but I can say for sure that some comedic moments reminded me of older American cartoons somehow. Fights were not that interesting, because they were resolved by…
