Doujin Work #08 — The Rivalry Heats Up
August 25th, 2007
Another comic festival, another snorefest.
Impressions:
So, I have to admit that the animation and the art was actually pretty decent this week. Still not exactly good, but the best it’s been for at least a month or so. There were still a couple moments where Tsuyuri and Najimi lost their noses and looked like she had just come from a Peanuts convention, but for the most part, it was decidedly tolerable. That said, the series is just becoming tiresome. Nitou is like an anchor dragging everything else down, and it wasn’t like the show was on sailing through clear skies before she showed up either. She’s just so milquetoast and has all the dynamic excitement of dry spaghetti. Najimi’s also decidedly less fun when she’s enjoying a measure of minor success and not relying on Hoshi for at least some form of humor.
I suppose I’ll keep paying attention (though may be somewhat delayed as I’ve been stealing the raw from Spoonsubs and they’ve been having some FTP and otherwise issues), and make a note if something particularly happens, but Nitou has really killed an already somewhat floundering series in my mind and I’m not certain there’s much they could do to regain my interest.

Poor Nitou, Am I the only who like her?
