Aria – The Scarlet Ammo #13 — Who ARE These Characters?

December 20th, 2011

 

You’re not even good at being bad.

Impressions:

And suddenly, out of nowhere, Aria makes a play for the stupidest show of Tuesdays with a special! Aaah, Aria. A show that ended up being the second most intelligent thing airing on its day after Softenni. Where characters are shocked that a werewolf’s weakness is getting shot in the back of its throat and girls uniforms do duty as both parachutes and bullet proof vests, as well as being skintight enough to show their breasts bounce with every single tiny movement. Too bad that Aria sucks even at trying to be the most terrible.

Unfortunately, this is just more or less the same as almost every other episode of the show without doing anything to really deserve being called a special. Not enough comedy, not enough T&A, not enough anything really. Just kind of a generic filler hot springs episode. This is a special. Do something specialish. Wasn’t there a cheerleader episode? I’m pretty sure that had more ‘fun’ going on than this. Also, I’m not sure all of these characters were actually even in the show, although I have done a good job of blocking pretty much everything but the last episode or two out of my memory. This just reminded me exactly why.

10 Shouts From the Peanut Gallery

    Ah yes, I remember this cunt, Aria, the “one too many” Shana-clone. (and hopefully last) I have a pretty high tolerance for TsunReis, but this bitch just pushed every one of my buttons. I even think that Louise from ZnT has some redeemable qualities.

    Not to mention that this series is just complete trash. Be it in anime, manga, or novel form. Ironically enough, HnA is one of JCstaff’s most faithful adaptations. (Mostly because it’s so poorly written that its almost impossible to make it worse)

    This series really doesn’t get enough hate. And from what I understand, a 2nd season is all but confirmed. The fact that people actually buy this trash both confuses and infuriates me.

    • Nanaya says:

      I think it’s because it’s one of their most faithful adaptations that it’s so bad. The novels are oddly passable and amusing if you read it from the how-will-the-troll-top-itself PoV. Can’t even do that with the adaptation for some reason. Bleh.

    Almost forgot this crap.
    Are there any Shana-clones for next season?
    Does Fear-in-Cube count as a Shana-clone?
