Jman Posted May 11, 2023 Posted May 11, 2023 Quote Melinda's mental struggle causes her to seek out the normality of Emma's old life, while Edred, Seng and Copernicus are embroiled in a citywide manhunt for Unicorn. 2

3ngag3 Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 Surprised no one is talking about the Spoiler dick cutting 1
[classic swim] Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 Spoiler I guess it helps that the Melinda and Seng meant to be chosen are actually well aware of what’s going on. They could still be useful later in the story, or at least I’d hope so. Even though it’s bad for the wrong souls to be chosen, Melinda’s spirit reminds Emma that there’s still an underlying reason *why* she was picked for the greater good. I think even Seng told Alfie before that everything would make sense later on. 1

Still need to catch up on all the shows. Edited May 14, 2023 by DangerMouse 3

DangerMouse Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 So, what did you guys think of the premiere for this?
atomicinumatt Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 So, I actually caught this episode Thursday night. Not bad but this show still has not really caught my attention. I am somewhat interested but the characters do not really feel compelling to me yet and the story is just barely got me interested. There is only like, what, 10 episodes? I guess we shall see!
saito34 Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 Genndy really switched up his art style for this show. I've grown to appreciate different art/animation styles and I like this one too. It's the same reason I like ballmasterz. It's a really offbeat style but I find it pretty impressive in a lot of ways. 1

These things seem even harder when your family is close knit. Condolences to you and yours. Edited May 14, 2023 by saito34 2

Same for the most part, but I'm open to giving the show a lot of leeway because I enjoy the eye candy. In all honesty an OLED can make just about any animated show interesting...lol. 1

AnimationFan14 Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 Tonight is my last night of my Cancún vacation and tomorrow morning I’m flying back home. So tonight I’m going to have to miss out on Toonami and getting to hangout. I’ll have to catch up on last weekend’s and tonight’s Toonamis once I am back home tomorrow night. 2

Definitely will be giving the story a full shot and will be watching to the end haha 2

Yeah, this one looks more traditional. I definitely see the Tezuka influence that was mentioned on the wiki page. Haven't had the chance to really take it in yet though. The backgrounds are pretty great.

Definitely has a classic feel to it.

I think this is the first time he's done this kind of long-form pacing. I think even Sym-Titan felt more front-loaded in establishing the overall framework despite hiding later reveals. 1

And that's definitely true, it's the double edged sword of being so close so I'm feeling it in cycles.

One particular reviewer out and out said the plot wouldn’t make sense until Episode 5.

It was visually stunning. Def Astro Boy too. There is one American artist I'm thinking of that I can't recall. His art style is identical iirc. 1
