If the Ao no Kiseki translation patch comes out in 2017 it's going to be godly...
Opening/Ending of the week (changed every Monday...or when I find something that's actually good) Aikatsu! Opening 5: Du Du Wa Do It!
Aikatsu! is a very fun show.
I have turned off my ratings. I have done this because I've decided that numbers are destructive to my viewing experience and that they cannot properly convey how I feel about a show. I find that writing a few paragraphs explaining why I like/dislike something is far better and more informative than a single numeric value. With that in mind, if for whatever reason you're curious about how I feel about a certain show, then by all means, just ask.
Thanks for calling out Detective, dude doesn't seem to have any idea what he is talking about, just seeing his reply hear and thinking that the story was a "Redemption" made me laugh, he has no clue. :P
The film could have been about anything, the deafness was only a thin veil to convey a generic story of "redemption." I sound damning of this work because I am damning it, and think that it is offensive on many levels. I truly believe that this film was poorly written and that many version of this same story exist especially in other medium. I did proofread my review.
On the otherhand, I was not making assumptions about deaf people. I'm surprised that you think I was. I was making assumptions on the able-bodied people who created this work. If you don't think Koe no Katachi was created with the shady intent of being a blu-ray sale hotcake, then go ahead, but it's pretty obvious that it was. When was the last time KyoAni took a risk? This fits into their "crying game" genre of works alongside Clannad and Kanon perfectly. Except this time, it was about something more tangible. That in itself made me uncomfortable already.
If you enjoy the film be my guest, but just be reflective of the lens you are watching it through.
