Aquarion Logos #05 — Masterful Photoshopping

July 30th, 2015

  

More giant ribbons on your bikini. More.

Impressions:

Aaah, the mid-season doldrums, where we’ve exhausted our premise and are now settling into padding things out with as much insipidness as possible before having to actually do anything with anybody. And always at the top of that list is the swimsuit episode, but we’ll make the girls all huddle together, topless, for warmth. I’m not even sure how or why they were in a cave in the first place. “Here we are on this beach surrounded by businesses and buildings, but… Oh no! The antagonist has stolen away ‘summer’. Not even, like, heat, or the sun, or the beach, but the very concept of summer. That sounds like it should be the plot of Ferris Bueller vs the Evil Principal Wizards. Anyway, instead of running to civilization, let’s go hide in a goddamned cave. You deserve to freeze to death.

    Is it me or are “newer” anime becoming predictable and formulaic enough that you know when and how they’ll introduce a beach or a hot springs episode near the middle of the season.

    What you should really question is why the summer monster is looking like the bastard child of a snowflake and an icicle.

    But the concept of summer doesn’t include the Sun… the Earth should have just immediately rotated to Fall.
