The Hero is Dead! #02 — Non-Abrasive Fabric Lightener
April 13th, 2023
The BETA apparently need part time work.
Impressions:
Well, it did the couple things that it needed to in order to redeem the protagonist a little bit. He both gave a couple life affirming speeches about being yourself, even if you're a garbage person, and used cleverness and ingenuity to beat a superior foe. But neither were executed all that well, the over-reactions remain exceptionally obnoxious, and the animation continues to be atrocious. I'm ambivalent to the trashy T&A, but that's probably because it's always accompanied by yelling, and yelling over kneesocks, boobs, assassination attempts, monsters existing… it all blends into a single current of just noise.
The half-assed trap at the end is what really grates on me though. It was just a single bluff that took more time to then explain than it did to execute while all three of Team Good Guy just sat there playing with themselves. And even then, it was less than a minute from start to end. Put together a whole fight or something before you reveal that everything was to get him to the one specific spot that lets you win. Expend some actual effort.

Is just half assed, is not really funny, is not really fanservicey, it has no real plot, is just mediocre in every way, I can at least say is not offensively bad just bland.
