I do really like Victory! I see why some people might not like it due to the weird beginning but I think it has one of the best endings out of any of the UC series I've seen besides 0079.
I saw your profile because I just saw The Ideon: Be Invoked an read your review of it and thought it was really insightful.
I still haven't read it, but I plan to read it soon, frankly, I don't even know what kind of a sequel it will be, but I wanna think that it will be a good experience.
Talking about Evil Dead, while the first movie was in the mindset of an indie film, after the box office success of the first movie, Sam Raimi created his horror-comedy mix in Evil Dead 2. In fact, when I look at the movie, I find it very accurate to make a Looney Tunes analogy that takes Lovecraft's horror elements. There are even scenes in the movie like Tom and Jerry where he tries to catch his own hand instead of Jerry. Third movie is even more different than the first two. It's like an Arthurian Legend lol. Such an classic trilogy!
Hello to you too! I was scrolling through the reviews of Omoide Emanon and I came across your review. I like Omoide Emanon a lot too. If you have time, I suggest you watch The Man From Earth, their themes are quite similar.
Also Evil Dead sequels are pretty different from the first one but they are also bloody good and like you said you should watch them one day.
I don't remember much about it, except that I wasn't invested in the characters and I felt like the way they tied their small scale childhood problems to the multi-world stakes wasn't well done. I get what they were going for with Yu but he was characterized in way too edgy of a way that made him unlikable. There was also too much of a disconnect between the childhood versions of the characters and their adult selves, lending to that disconnect between the two scales of stakes they were going for.
Still, I remember the series fondly for its music and funny enough, the coziness of Haruka's house. It's definitely another one of those anime about human connection that is more heart than brains so it reaches too much in making its grand statements.
It’s a bit slow but if you have time, it’s definitely worth it. The plot and characters were intriguing and the dialogue hit like a truck. Would definitely recommend it.
Yeah i watched them all, all the 3D Appleseeds and even Masamune Shirow's obscure W-Tails Cat : A Strange Presence.
in fact i enjoy that style so much that i researched obscurities like virtual star 2000 and everything else in these stacks.
