Asu no Yoichi 12: Final Verdict on Asu no Yoichi
Posted: March 29, 2009 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a comment »Well, I haven’t been exactly blogging this series, but here’s my views on the last episode and the anime in general anyway.
Also, CLANNAD’s Final Verdict is still pending (it’s a lot harder to type up than this, so I present to you this junkpost for the time being).
Um…
Because that first picture was drawn so god damn badly!
They picked the wrong colors for all of the eyes, and completely messed up the scene.
I don’t know which is worse: that first picture up there or this one…
–>
Um.
I think the explanation for Torigaya’s strange physical changes was intended, but ultimately ended up being thrown out with a rough draft on accident.
I have no idea what the hell is going on with him. >_>
So basically, this episode can be summed up in one word: wat?
WAT.
That’s my opinion on this episode.
Now, this wat isn’t just derived from the WTFTorigaya/Washizu subplot, but that is really bizzare nonetheless.
It mostly comes from the villains.
Now, why does Mr. “I thought she remembered some insignificant comment that I said over ten years ago” suddenly turn into Mr. “I realize the value of fighting” right after Yoichi says his already-repeated-in-every-other-episode-line?
I DON’T KNOW, and frankly, I don’t think I want to know.
Oh, and another thing: Why did this retard think that he had to become physically stronger in order to marry Ibuki?
Because she was stronger, right? He was a chauvinist pig asshole at what, five?
Speaking of which, this guy’s about the same age as Ibuki, so shouldn’t he and his sister be in school? >_>;
Well, this series hasn’t been a very good one overall.
There was the monster-of-the-week type of plot (or rather, enemy-of-the-week*), and there were some pretty stereotypical…
- Characters
- Big-breasted oldest sister
- Cold, detatched sister
- Mangaka
- Loli
- “What is society?” person
- Delinquent with a soft side
- Hair
- Villains
- Plotline
- Enemy-of-the-week
- Reused “tropical island paradise” premise
- Yoichi’s reused speech
- Etc.
Basically, all I saw was an ecchified, less epic combination of Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu and the stereotypical harem anime.
True, there were some really awesome moments (“JEEEESUS” and “OH MY GOD” too)…
But that doesn’t keep me from delivering a final score of
6/10
for Asu no Yoichi!.
