If you only consider art and CGI, Moonrise will definitely masterpiece. I don't any complain about it, it's very beautiful.
But when come into plot and characterization.... It's really bad
Like huh just one year join military made you obedient without questioning what exactly happen? Are those characters really have brainwashed?
And what the hell with their communication, they just keep silent. If author want to make story keep mysterious, i don't think that how to do it.
And WTF obey AI for making decision. AI should be tool for help human, not a god bruh.
Ah one thing made me wonder is how they still alive in moon without any oxygen huh? no matter how advanced civilization is, oxygen still being oxygen, they not even use mask and live normally like in earth. Maybe it's just how bad the world building of this anime.
When i heard about Wit Studio staff complain how bad this anime marketing, I thought it's will be a hidden masterpiece. At least like Cyberpunk Edgerunner. But this anime is trash... really waste potential.
I feel bad for the staff who hard working made the excellent animation, just to be waste by trash plot :(
