Interspecies Reviewers #05 — Sexually Transmitted Fungus

February 8th, 2020

 

There's something unsettling about cooking and eating the thing you just had sex with.

Impressions:

As usual, I feel like the most effective critique of this episode would be to link an Oglaf comic with the remark "It was this joke, but with shrieking Japanese females, giant boobs, and forgetting to include the punchline." I'm not even sure there were any actual jokes in the whole mushroom portion. One of them had head-boobs that kept ejaculating spores. Is that a joke? No? Well, then it was just a montage of girls moaning and humping stinkhorns twice their size.

The first part almost feels like it was even more dreadful though, despite having something that could have been a joke. The focus was on cyclops, and the joke was "when they ask if you lik them big, they mean the eyes." What makes it a bit more mystifying is that they tried to wrap some kind of story into it about a cyclops girl who was insecure about her eye size. Except it was just some rando who didn't actually interact with them or the ongoing stuff in any way whatsoever, so if you edited out about 10 seconds at the start and end of the sequence, the thing bookending it that provides the supposed setup and conclusion, nobody would be able to tell.

3 Shouts From the Peanut Gallery

  • Delaware says:

    I wonder how many of those who scored 10 in MAL are really watching this show?

  • residentgrigo says:

    What are you even doing to yourself with this one?

    The rushed Dorohedoro adaptation is the one worthwhile show this season.

  • Tyshunn Felton says:

    Eizouken is also great.
