*Gives up on Baccano*
May. 30th, 2009 04:07 amI swear I have never seen a more haphazard, convoluted, and absolutely incoherent anime in all my life.
First episode has...girl and guy deciding on...a main character for a story while playing a game of points? Meta thing?
Then the Flying Pussyfoot train...with almost a dozen people I don't know doing all kinds of shit. I start to learn a little about a guy and girl who are rather weird and went gold hunting because the guy saw a centipede and thinks it's the god of gold. Okay. Oh yeah and there are ghosts...immortals...people who can't die...etc...
And now another story is starting...
WTF!...It's like some moron took Cowboy Bebop, The Godfather, Fullmetal Alchemist, and bunch of left over story notes into a blender...yanked out whatever words that came out first and called it an anime. I'm sure someone will explain..."oh you're just not "getting it"...if I need to go through all kinds of shit just to "get it"...then I don't want it".
Worst recommendation ever. And this may get "better" as it goes along but for now it's easily the most incoherent and worst "well-drawn" anime I've ever seen in my life.
Characters rambling incoherently about "this is my role and the job of the teller of the tales and form that takes the teller or relating the blah blah blah"...seriously...I give animes some credit for being translations and translating is tough but the verbal diarrhea spewing out of the old man "main character" meta crap...is just a pile of shit unequaled to any I have ever seen in the history of any and all writing (anime or otherwise). It's so bad it makes me feel better about any of my sins of clunky, artificial dialogue..."at least it's not Baccano..." It's insanely incoherent. You could just throw out a bunch of madlips and it would have about the same meaning.
BAH!
PS - The 15-ish character names are incredibly forgettable...except for someone named "Nice Svuturo or something for a last name"....okay....clearly someone on the anime staff has a random name generator...*slight sarcasm but just slight*. There is not a single name that comes up that feels the least bit memorable...it's just...unreal. I've never seen an anime which just frustrates every single way to be enjoyable.
Addendum - I was trying to think of Isaac and Miria (the only two characters I feel anything for)...and here's a decent anime post of the first episode...it makes more sense of the episode than I could.
