Rec’d by Iwamoto #01 — Getting High

You can say "opium" you know.

Impressions:

The most entertaining thing about this episode is the reminder that the "Jet Boy Bangerz" is a pop group that exists. Phrasing. A very dull and unanimated episode, as you'd expect from Deen. Dude just glares and either listens to or delivers exposition. At one point, he almost unsheathes a sword. The big exciting thing he does is grab a kid's hand. The kid who magically produces totally-not-opium, and is cursed because… people overdosed on it? And so they bury him underground and just harvest a 'good' amount of opium, and enough for a profit, but this is also somehow something that has somehow been kept a secret, and the villagers are willing to… not really do much of anything to keep it a secret, and let them go with a warning shot? They all just wandered off when he set a couple flowers on fire? Am I right here?

At least very little effort went into making it. Thanks, Deen. Really showing us all how to put in the bare minimum of effort once again.
