I, see Jun Aoki.
I, watch.
Ore, Tsushima is another one of Jun Aoki's masterpieces and it's about cats. That of course is entirely obvious whilst not being obvious. It's about cats that aren't entirely cats. The anime recognises it is an anime whilst also attributing the real features and behaviour of cats to its characters. What you get is a hilariously funny anime perfect for its timespan. Sure, there isn't a lot of plot, sure, you may find the characters to be flat, sure, it may lack any reasonable time to develop into something bigger, but why must the lives of cats be so complicated? This is the perfect fit, nothing else could have served better.
On the production side of things, this is nothing more than incredible, it was almost as if the artwork designers used microscopes to elaborate on the more minuscule artistic detail because when the characters physique was presented to the viewer, all you could see was glory in the fur, this isn't true for backgrounds and such, but the children bookish style of such was probably Jun Aoki's way of getting a universal target audience. The audio side of things was entirely reliant on character voicing, of course, were all exemplary performances, how could one not love the reactions.
Overall, this anime is just another one of those manga gems based Jun Aoki will adapt for the world to see as an anime spectacle, him + Ore, Tsushima was entirely the correct decision, without question resulting in one of the most enjoyable things in anime, it's time-efficient too. I will 100% read the manga and wait on whatever blessing this man has to bestow on the world.
Thank God for Jun Aoki.
