Our Last Crusade #04 — Alternate Neutral Location

October 28th, 2020

 

The meet-cutes will continue until morale improves.

Impressions:

Boy, as they move from a neutral city to a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT neutral resort for half the episode, I was starting to wonder if the entire show about two genocidal nations at war was going to be taking place in neutral holiday locations where they have no problems whatsoever living together. But it's cool, because the story is moving so fast and the other characters are picking up the slack. Wait, the story's already come to a total halt and the rest of the cast only has booby dresses to prop them up? Well, I guess we're looking pretty screwed then, aren't we?

It's never a good thing when you're comparing unfavorably to schlock like Assassin's Pride or Absolute Duo, but that's where this nonsense is at the moment on just about every level. The story is going nowhere and showing few signs of that changing. The action was nonexistent this week, and close to it for the last couple weeks. The scant chemistry between the two leads was also nonexistent as they didn't even interact at all, it just spent half the episode coyly having them just miss each other while both constantly remarked on how wacky it would be if they ran into each other.

    image 51 has the only selling points this show has given the total lack of chemistry the main pair shows – and you’ll note that there was only one image like that this week, so what is this show even doing?

    That captain is 22 and acts like that.ice girl is 17 and is more mature. Vanilla MC is 16 and is far more mature. Dunno what my point is, but goddamn it’s boring.

      I guess its a reference/archetype of a teacher from index which likely exited elsewhere too.
