The God of High School (2020)
The animation is more well handled than the narrative
For the most part the animation is hands down some of the best hand to hand combat I've ever seen. However there are parts when the majority of the body or whatever is moving will drop out of the frame in order for them to show a close up on something else, leaving you with only the slightest clue as to what is currently happening.
But the most unforgivable part is the handling of the narrative. The first half of episode one demonstrated a remarkable ability to expand bare bones writing into original and extensively detailed scenes. However there was also a pattern of condensing the more detailed parts of the original story into barely comprehensible, hyper-condensed scenes with next to no incite into the characters. The exposition as to how the characters arrived at their current states takes the form of single sentences mentioned in passing. This may be a consequence for the short episode count.
Beruseruku: The Branded Swordsman (2016)
Terrible, Terrible, Terrible
Disgustingly ugly visuals undercut good voice acting and an incredible narrative in this animation abomination. Does not live up to the quality of the first series.
Warrior (2019)
I was hoping for Chinese Narcos, but whoops
It starts out all mandarin and then it switches to English which takes away from any kind of authentic feel it had. Also some dialogue sounds forced and cliche. But overall good fight scenes, good story, and good acting make it a 7/10 drama.
To aru majutsu no indekkusu (2008)
Completely sucks
Overladen with fan service and magic and techno-babble, the series had promise but the people who write it aren't actually trying to tell a good comprehensive story. Railgun is better.
