Not like intentionally crying sad, more like in a pitiful/pathetic way. Most comedic moments depend on jokes about actual addicts in frankly deplorable situations and some kind of substance abuse and that’s very uncomfortable to me.
I fully get it’s exaggerated and I’m probably looking too much into it, but it feels like the show is making fun of addicts. Not just smoking, but also drugs. So like, sad that the creators had to stoop to this level.
Yeah, not continuing this one. It’s like, actually sad
Isn’t it only divisive for people that watched the original? Those of us who watched the 1995 movie are very much biased here.
Oh shit. The manga is pretty wild, so definitely curious about the adaptation
They say they do (except the LGBTQ+ part, I don’t really see that) , but they actually don’t. They make wild promises (with no plans), only to then “realise” that it’s harder than they though.
They just say that to make them more palatable and undermine actual left wing parties. The amount of times I’ve heard from far-right voters in my country that the difference between their far right party and the socialist party is really small and that they are “economically pretty left”, is insane.
I didn’t know there’d be a 2nd season. Here’s hoping they manage to reach the same heights as the first season.
You almost can’t get a more generic list tbh
Definitely some recency bias in here.
And nostalgia bias
Honestly, maybe one of my favourite shows of this season
I think not wanting to travel with a crystal that nullifies your magic until you find a buyer who knows when or where is a pretty fair reason by itself tbh.
They don’t make the cut to what I consider “fan-serivce”
Yeah, that’s why I went with fan-servicey. I couldn’t really think of another word. By many other anime standards, this is nothing. Though, compared to other iyashikei-type anime, it’s more than usual I think
That cleavage picture, for example, is from the POV of the boy and shows why he might be flustered talking with the girl.
I see what you mean, but he didn’t really seem flustered by it. He had no blush, like when she was fixing his shoe, and by the time he looked away she was already standing straight again.
But also, the way it lingered made it feel otherwise to me.
There are a few moments that focus on her body in a more ogling way. Like this, zipping up a hoody, focusing on her chest which you see being pushed up:
And this, where her cleavage is more centered than her face (and where the cleavage kinda came out of nowhere):
I don’t know how to describe these angles other than fanservicey. They’re not panty shots or anything. It’s really tame, but these shots feel pretty jarring to me, because they just don’t fit the feel of the show imo.
Nice, relaxing vibe, but the fanservicey moments don’t fit this.
Yeah, I won’t continue with this anime because of that.
