This anime movie is an unknown Netflix movie and it's normal that it's not well known because when you look at other anime movies, you feel the fluidity, but when it comes to the movie called Ame wo Tsugeru Hyouryuu Danchi, we encounter an extremely boring movie, but I must say that sometimes it is also beautiful. The reason for this in general, I will explain in the review immediately.
The story of the movie is generally interesting and I can say that it handles it well. Whether it is the character development of the children and with a good duration, of course it can be

Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou
(Manga)
add
Recommended Spoiler
I've always loved post-apocalyptic series. I mean, when I was a kid, there was an interactive game called The Walking Dead, and I kind of fell in love with it, I mean, it was very emotional and it was one of the rare things that could make me cry. So I would say my first anime was a zombie anime, "Gakkou Gurashi", and for some reason everything in this genre is interesting to me. That's why I started Girl's Last Tour because it was a concept that interested me and I set out to read it. Of course, I started from the anime at first,
...
and then I read it directly as a manga, and I even finished it on February 12, 2022, the day I finished it, I was so impressed that I posted it as a story on Instagram, which I didn't use. Here I am today with the review of Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryouko, one of the series I am most impressed with.
"If they had stored food instead of weapons, everything would have been better." Civilization may be gone, but Chito and Yuuri are still alive. Traveling around the now ruined world on their Kettengrad motorcycles, they search for the things they need to survive, such as food and machine parts, while sharing their feelings, thoughts and experiences with each other and with us, the readers... The manga tells us the story in a really moving way and the manga gets more emotional as the chapters progress. It was always a relief to read the empty conversations between Chito and Yuuri, two girls who are alone in the world and they question everything because they are children and they try to make sense of everything, but of course they can't find meaning in this meaningless world. After the war even people have disappeared and there is no enemy, there is no being that can kill you and why are we alive? So many questions like that, why were people fighting? We think about how the world became like this and the only conclusion is of course "to get stronger" and there was nothing else, people were fighting each other to get stronger and that's what the manga was about. Even though these things are usually told in an innocent way, the series had a depressive side, so sometimes we get emotional and we can connect to the characters. There's a loneliness in every character in the manga. This is because they were surviving alone in an empty world and looking for purpose, but of course they could never find it, there was nothing in such a purposeless world. Our characters always saw themselves and it was a big cycle, they were always having the same conversation and they didn't even know what to do. Humans are social beings, but without being human it could lead to depression. In fact, if I talk about the episode that deals with this loneliness in the best way, it's the episode "Episode 31 connection" and in 11 or 12 episodes of the anime, their loneliness is reduced for a moment because of a short scene and their loneliness disappears, but of course, because it's a momentary thing, their loneliness comes back. Chito and Yuuri were extremely afraid of being separated from each other because being alone in a world like this seemed extremely scary... The world of Girls' Last Tour is haunting but serene, the background art is gorgeous and full of raw detail, really bringing the desolate wastelands with houses to life. There are so many little things to find in their world, like learning all about their past history, technology, culture and the potential reasons why their world exists the way it does. The atmosphere, which is the best part of the manga, manages to give everyone a sense of serenity, even though it's simply drawn, the drawings are tremendously impressive and the world comes alive. I want to talk about the anime soundtracks... They are tremendous... I can say that anime has the best OSTs after Mushishi because they are impressive. It's hard to explain how impressive the music is, but if you listen to one of them, you'll understand how perfect they are and how heartbreaking at the same time. If I give you one example, I recommend you to listen to "Owari no uta". There's also the Opening and Ending and I have to say that they're just as great because the fun music is extremely positive and in a way that's the opposite of the anime, but isn't the anime already about "two girls having fun and looking for purpose?" so it feels really good that they can have fun and be happy in these pieces. Also, whoever sang the song sang it extremely well. In the manga, I should say that the story is mainly about the girls going to the top of the city, and on this adventure they encounter a lot of things. They saw new people and they saw more about the world and they were moved and they witnessed a lot of things and the reason for that was to get to the top and think that there is more and live there. Of course they had to get rid of a lot of stuff to do that, so they lost a lot of stuff on the journey and they kept going. They had to be determined to survive and they had that determination and they were going to go to the top with all their strength. Maybe there were more people at the top or maybe there was food because the top floor was supposed to be where everything was, right? What was it that was on the top floor... Nothingness. The only thing that the war gave was nothingness, and our characters saw this and realized that it was in vain, but even if they went back, they couldn't do anything because they had lost so many things on the way, just to come to this nothingness. What a beautiful thing life was for them, but people had given them nothing. There was nothing they had dreamed of, do you think life has a purpose? Why do we eat, why do we talk, why do we survive, what was the purpose of life? The answer was nothing, there was no meaning to life, not even a purpose in this post-apocalyptic world, but why were they alive? Of course it's good to be alive, so there's no other reason for it, because it's good to be alive. You don't need a purpose, you just need to experience things, friendships, love, hate, everything is part of life and they are all different experiences. It's already beautiful to experience these things, so we live, so even if life has no purpose, life is beautiful and there is no need for purpose. So in this aimless land, Yuu and Chi have their last dinner in this nothingness that people give them and they close their eyes... it was the end of a perfect experience. My last word about the review is that Shoujo Shuumatsu is the best war criticism.

Chainsaw Man
(Manga)
add
Recommended Preliminary
(137/? chp)
Spoiler
Chainsaw Man, Chainsaw Man is a manga series written by Tatsuki Fujimoto. The series has been published since December 2018, initially in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine and later in the Shōnen Jump+ app. It was one of the first manga I read, and it might have been because Fire Punch was the first Fire Punch I read. I saw Chainsaw Man when I was browsing MAL and looking at their other works. Of course, the first chapters seemed boring to me because it was an alien world and the characters seemed repulsive to me, but in the "Denji vs Yarara demon" battle, I was
...
laughing and that's when Chainsaw Man started. In general, the jokes suited me, so I couldn't quit, right? I didn't quit and it became one of my favorite series. By the way, since there is a page limit, I can explain some things superficially, good day.
"When Denji's father dies, he is left with a huge debt and there is no way he can pay it. However, thanks to the demon dog named Pochita he rescued, he pays off his debt little by little by demon hunting. Pochita's chainsaw powers are useful against demons. When Denji dies, Pochita sacrifices herself and resurrects him. But Denji is no longer human. He is now Chainsaw Man!" At first, when you look at this story, everyone thinks that this is a series like other shounen and that's what I thought, but as the manga progressed, I realized how wrong that was. Chainsaw man was an anti-shounen manga, in fact, we can call it a parody of Shounen because the general lines are completely Shounen, for example, the cold-blooded character "Aki" in every Shounen or the story of a rookie character joining an organization and becoming stronger are all extremely classic things and characters like "Kishibe", the master or whatever in every Shounen, were all here, but Chainsaw Man is a series that shows how good these clichéd works can be when they are handled differently. First of all, there is no power of friendship or anything like that in the manga, it's a series where everything is solved by brute force and I like that. The characters are never smarter than they are or out of character, everyone is the way they are and I like that. I also like the fact that the plot is completely chaos, the mangaka works in such a way that it's hard not to get fired up because it's completely chaos, instead of dealing with only one bad character, it deals with and kills many characters, and it doesn't do this by adding unnecessary drama, it almost touches on it briefly and we don't see it again. I love Chainsaw Man because it's exactly the kind of pure action series I would want, and even if it's serious, it's even more impressive because the mangaka tells it in his own humorous tone. And the fact that people die one by one is extremely brave, almost no manga can be that brave. Also, since the manga is set in the present day, it makes us get into the atmosphere even more because it is true that we see ourselves in general, the demon hunters are in this business because of their selfish desires, almost none of them have childish desires. So to summarize, the reason why I like Chainsaw Man in general is that it's not childish and it's extremely fun. Now, if we talk about the characters, first of all, this might be the thing that Chainsaw Man does best because the characters are tremendous. If we talk about Denji, he is someone who has only been working since childhood as a result of his father's suicide, and when this situation suddenly disappears, he can sometimes be an annoying character as a result of expressing his feelings in general based on sexuality, but it can be said that Denji is a person who cannot express his feelings in general and has emotional problems, and even in some frames he has questions like "am I heartless?". Also, it can be said that I like Denji because of his extreme childishness, he seems like a sympathetic person to me for some reason. If we talk about Power, first of all, I can say that the character is a character that exists just to exist, that is, a fan service character, but it is true that we can somehow connect to him, but he fails in terms of depth, but Denji and Power are really great, they are like a brother and sister, and then we move on to their older brother Aki. We can say that Aki is the deepest character in the manga, that is, his family is killed by the gun demon in seconds and he is an ordinary cold-blooded character type who wants to avenge this, but there is something that distinguishes him from the others "Aki is not a successful character" if we look at the others, he has at least one power or something, but Aki is a character who gives his own life for power and can die at any moment, and a character who sees all his friends die one by one, we can say that he is a completely failed and ordinary character. In general, it can be said that this is why I like it because when we look at other cold-blooded characters, while they are extremely strong, Aki is extremely weak from them and we can get more attached to him, his helplessness is a character who cannot do anything and even gives up his revenge for his friends. You could say I liked him because of his maturity, and even though he complained about Denji and Power, you could say he loved them like a big brother. The reason why I liked Chainsaw Man characters in general is because I would say they are realistic characters. Makima, if I talk about Makima, first of all, the character was introduced as an extremely friendly person at first, and as the chapters progress, we realize how mysterious he is, and you already know that Makima dispenses judgment between "20-30 chapters" of the manga, and this power of his strikes fear into the whole world, he is such a mysterious character. She approaches each character in a different way, for example, she gives Denji the image of a perfect girl and she approaches Aki in the same way, but when it comes to her masters or anyone else, we see that she is overly serious and insincere, which makes her an even more mysterious character. Also, the episode where the Gun Devil aka the gun demon comes out was the most impressive scene, killing thousands of people in seconds and Makima coming out and destroying him in an instant by means of a powerful demon were interesting sequences. We also learn that the US president exists from Makima and that he sent the weapon demon to destroy him. Anyway, Makima's goal is a great peace, but we know that the US generally obtains its economic infrastructure from wars, and we can say that this is a justifiable reason for not wanting peace, but of course they could not defeat Makima. We can say that Makima's goal in general is to bring peace to the world by using the Saw man, that is, it is possible to purify people from their fears thanks to the power of forgetting, but one point I disagree with is that I think the fears will not disappear no matter how much the Saw man eats because I have been afraid of something since the beginning of humanity, but I don't understand Makima. Even though his goal is to make the world a better place, there is a slight annoyance because we as the reader see it through Denji's eyes, but Denji is almost useless to the world and Makima's use of him is normal to a certain extent. Even though he's annoying, he's a great villain for Chainsaw Man because he's scary with every move he makes, because of his characterization, and because he's cool to me. Now moving on to the other villains, Reze, aka the Bomb. I mean, it's normal that he's so powerful because as scary as the gun demon is, the Bomb demon is just as powerful, so if there wasn't a puddle of water near Denji and Reze, he's a character that Denji could never defeat. I also admire how well Reze was handled in such a short time, he was one of my Waifus in Chainsaw Man. Also the fact that he turns out to be a Russian agent is a very unexpected plot twist. I was also extremely heartbroken that they couldn't meet Denji after they were defeated. Damn Denji, you were left alone too. By the way, don't you think the Katana Man part was the most ordinary part? I don't even remember the names of the bad characters there, but there were still battles and stuff, it was good, it was good, the anime was up to there and it was good, but we can say that it was the most ordinary arc. Now we can talk about the best part, of course, the "Sukisatçiler part", we can say that there is a thousand and one emotions because those parts were so exhilarating that it was a bloodbath and the best part is the moment when the Dark Demon comes. It was an extremely unexpected moment when a powerful one of ours came and destroyed everyone, and it could have been everyone's favorite place, and in this part, we encounter characters like Quanxi, and those moments were super awesome because the first time he came, we said "what the fuck, he's showing his mangaka fantasies", but it was extremely shocking that a character who could destroy everyone suddenly appeared. Also, the cosmic demon, you know the guy who always says "Halloween", when he announced his power, it was an extremely impressive scene and the fact that he defeated the enemy with one word makes him a powerful character, but I'm a little sorry that he was spent right away, but it was still nice to see. It was also very appropriate that so many people died in this part and the scene where they went to hell was my favorite. Now we're going to finish the review by talking about the last part. First of all, after the Assassins part, we start the parts that deal with Aki in general and we were in the parts where we realized what a sacrificial person he was because he gave up his revenge, why? So that Denji and Power wouldn't get hurt, now why shouldn't I like this guy? Fujimoto made such a character that it's hard not to respect him, but the last parts, his death, was an extremely impressive place. For a shounen character, I really teared up, it was such an impressive scene that the mangaka played with our emotions. We saw Ulan Denji crying for the first time and we even learn more about Aki, Aki was a lonely boy who had no friends when he was little and his parents always took care of his little brother. That's why he hated his family, but he had a love for them, but suddenly their disappearance caused a great sadness, so I feel like making a post about Aki. I can say it's the most impressive animanga scene, I read it from time to time and it still sounds impressive. Now, if we talk about the last part, Denji is in a broken state after Aki's death, so he said "I'll be your dog" when he told Makima his wish. Since Denji never took any responsibility in his life in general, these were always too much for him, so he wanted an owner and Makima was an important owner for him, but because he said this, he lost someone again, and since Power's death was so sudden, it could be said that I was looking at the page for minutes, and I forgot to say that Denji's father did not actually commit suicide, Denji killed him, but the mafia showed it as suicide. Denji, of course, being a child, suddenly this traumatic memory was displaced, so Pochita told him not to open the door. These were some crazy plot twists. Then it's just action, Denji transforms into his real saw man form and we meet old characters and some new ifrit and it's over. Overall, I thought the Makima fight was good, even if the ending was a bit lackluster. So that's it for the review, I could actually talk more but I didn't feel the need to talk so if you like my review don't forget to like it so see you. Also, if I need to talk about some things, in general, Chainsaw man may have exaggerated a little since it was one of the first manga I read, but I still think it was a good review. (1600 words)
