Hell’s Paradise #02 — Angsty Pokemon
April 8th, 2023
Who lotta angsting for someone who barely moved the entire episode.
Both Galaxy Next Door and *sigh* Second Time Summoned yada yada air fairly late, and I need to run a bunch of errands this morning. They'll likely be a little delayed from my usual speedy pickup. Or like many late things, not show up as expected anyway.
Impressions:
I guess at least they animated the brawl, even if it was largely gore porn. When it wasn't, it's because heads were being goofily popped off like they were lego people. Once again, I empathize with the random dude calling this idiotic for all the obvious reasons. The pacing also has not improved at all, either for the angsty flashbacks about how haunted the lady is by how she's gotta just keep killing because it's her job, nor when they did a whole tour of all the characters with unique designs so they could announce each and every one's backstories. Super duper organic storytelling!
It was also frequently very silly. Sure, there was the dude swinging another dude around by the feet, but also the entire Pokemon premise that every cop is going to have a pet criminal which they will be taking to the magic island. They're even on leashes. Or when they finally… finally figure out "Hey, maybe we could just attack our captors instead," that requires an entire protracted announcement and debate period, waiting for seconds, and vote for cloture before the entire brawl gets distracted because the protagonist has started talking. What a polite mob of rapists and bandits. We also end the exact same way as last week; with everybody going "this kid is totally nothing" and then he does a sweet kickflip and eats somebody's throat while yawning because of how bored he is by his own super coolness. It's so very excessively fourteen sick, as the kids say.
