This show is VERY entertaining. I am endlessly fascinated with anime’s ability to make a story out of anything. It makes for a more compelling contrast to typical Western fare, which rules out stories simply because they want to appeal to a mean audience.
Anime for me is like an anathema to this... The strangest and most outlandish stories are made into gripping drama, laughs, tears, emotional growth... and it could be a show about ANYTHING.
At any rate, this has been an entertaining six episodes. The writing is good to keep me very much keen to see what happens next. These little punk boys are one of the best stories I’ve seen this year.
I want to see Takemichi’s rage crumble in the next episode, and still manage to keep his immediate goal from falling apart. I also like how every episode manages to advance to overall plot just a little bit more. I’m also amazed how much damn story they manage to fit into 20 odd minutes.
On with the story!
i stopped hoping for anything with this show just bc of disinterest but well when i do... the writes just keep doing the opposite, mainly i think bc they love keeping the OGs (i mean the characters who are here many seasons, not from beginning) the longest they can so they drag and drag everything with unnecessary drama to after many seasons finally get them together. I'm sure they gonna drag down the Jo/Link relationship as they did with Owen/Altman (never fan of them but the will they/wont they were their only nice moments even dragged to eternity for it being boring as hell just the second they got together), I wanted sth fresh. Jo had a nice chemistry with the patient although it already started to be a little too much.
I soo miss Andrew DeLuca. I cannot fathom who can like Nick, he is so blant.... maybe its just really Mer getting older and I cant understand but the last time she felt alive was during the good times with Andrew :(
Also, the plane scene was funny for me bc i completely didnt get PTSD from the great plane crash of GA bc i didnt care about any of the characters in the plane. They made me disinterested in my last light in the tunnel which was Amelia.
That's shocking for me to say but I'll be watching the 20th season for the new guys. Adams is cute and the Reign actress with my fav Shadowhunters character? I need to see more of them. Tho they seem to lack depth in comparison to the wedding girl which has the most screen time i think.
