don't spread slander about a mizushima show

Since folks keep asking about the show itself, my review of The Train to the End of the World is: the premise, art, and scenario are cool. The characters and dialog are quite annoying, and the story is pedestrian. I'm still gonna finish it but it is not "good." it may go differently for you!

The long shot doesn't look bad but it does look insane. What's goin on there man

Always appreciate your vibe of "I may be pickier about my anime than you" in your anime recs.

I will absolutely be saving that anime image of a Sega Saturn I tell you what (and not watching even a second of the show).

Hey, at least it's not Death Crimson.

I actually liked that show. It was a lot weirder than other stuff that season and its bizarro world rules reminded me of STALKER. Also a banger ED.

I liked the scenario and the ideas and the art was decent. But the dialog and characters were quite abrasive to me and the story was pretty basic. I'm still watching it! Just not in my particular "good" box.

"no it is not very good"

this is a friendly counterargument (i'm not trolling or being like. instigating anything with you) but imo i actually really liked it. the characters were pretty loveable for me and the dialogue was actually pretty on point for a bunch of sheltered middle schoolers--

Glad it worked for you! That's why I made my last post there, to clarify a bit

ohhh, okay. sorry for my yiik apologism I Will Do It Again (and yes, i argue alex is clearly not meant to be sympathized by the narrative and his sudden importance in the end chapter is because of his belief that if he doesn't have friends his world will crumble, hence the Alex Meteor)

sunkernplus.bsky.social•166 days ago

basically alex is What If A Video Game Protagonist Was A Fucked Up White Boy (debatable on the boy part) With BPD And Autism And Daddy And Mommy Issues

--and i enjoyed the mysterious plot and the simultaneous episodic and serialized nature of the show as well. then again, i'm the kind of person who genuinely thinks yiik: a postmodern rpg is, while flawed, a genuinely wonderful rpg that can stand with a lot of great (post)modern ones---

sunkernplus.bsky.social•166 days ago

---because yiik: a postmodern rpg DOES follow a lot of tenets of postmodernism, such as metanarratives, unreliable narrators (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOdErabHgEw&list=PLsDRs6-htR2CrP2gYQf_ezjVPbQag8qFa hellkrai has a playlist of yiik analysis videos that analyze alex's inconsistency with the cutscenes if you want to watch it)
