such a pity that this episode didn't feel as self aware as the first one.
still entertainingly bad though. For anyone who unironically enjoys this story you've gotta have the lowest possible narrative standards. Even the worst naruto filler episodes have better plot than this

The story isn’t bad, but the animation is something else.

Or perhaps their view isn't as narrow as looking at every piece of fiction as something that has to follow guidelines of what's considered objectively good writing.

This the modern TV series equivalent of a trashy pre 00 OVA. It's a shame how easily people dismiss the entertaiment value wack fun can provide, while being less harsh on more functional yet bland series. At least you seem to appreciate the former.

I'm enjoying it, but this whole "there is no objective goodness in film" is a stupid way to interact with the medium. Simply put this show is lazy. It's not "doing something different" because if you've been paying attention you should have been able to tell it is trying to do the same things as other shows and failing at them. This show is not trying to be unique, that is simply a result of the poor production and writing. And therefore it is perfectly deserving of objective criticism

I didn't say that there are no rules of what makes writing work. It's just that some people intentionally chose to ignore them, because they seek out something else. One may prefer the taste of a cheap ice cream to a vanilla gelato, provided it's the right flavor. And to me the goofy looking CGI here got more charm than an unremarkable production. People don't necessarily have low standards, they have their own standards.

I agree that failure is usually more entertaining than just a lack of success.
however I think that people who do truly base their standards on objective good anime production shouldn't be looked down upon for not enjoying goofy shit like this. It's good that there are people holding creators accountable for the quality of their works. That said the vast majority of "critics" are people that hate on shows because Mothers Basement made some attack video on it, or just to be contrarian to popular opinion. I would certainly agree that such people are better off just enjoying shit rather than being illogically harsh on the media they watch

Surprisingly, I didn't have that much of a problem with the animation with this episode.
The plot however... eh. Not really good so far.

I would've been fine if they didn't F*CK UP THE TRACKS SO MUCH!!!

Maybe its my love for trains but I found this to be the most annoying aspect so far lol.

Haha yes the tracks were pretty bad. Not only are they all straight but they even overlap at the ends. At first I thought they mean to show that there's something wrong with the tracks. Why the unnecessary shot showing them close up when you know you didn't model them well?

3.95 on week 2 of Tesla Note... This series will challenge Ex Arm as the worst rated anime this year

No, Tesla Note is bad but isn't nearly as bad as Ex-Arm with the magic fog and emotionless faces.

Seriously such a ridiculous thing to, that Tesla fragment could have killed so many people and here our kind lady botan asking that kid to give it to her and risking to kill all the passengers this stupid things wouldn't have happen if these detectives have taken that fragment when they entered the house give there capabilities it was way more easy than a piece of cake. I mean it's really irritating so much for a fucking kids wish which could have killed them all and botan afraid of jumping that was also insane I mean u are responsible for letting him enter the train. I will give 2/10 2 out of respect as an otaku
