![]() ![]() Also one last thing is that I absolutely despise that Tanuki-Fox duo, they were so gross and unfunny I hate, hate, hate them. I also dislike how Hao is portrayed in this series, he's more comedic and has so much more interaction with the main cast, it kinda ruins that mysterious vibe I'm used to (again, I assume that). Horohoro is the best example in this situation, I may be too used to the old version of his (and I assume that) which is more comedic and fun, but here he became more and more irritated, more and more serious Bakugo-like character, he became even edgier than Tao Ren. ![]() Everybody is so apathetic towards one another, everybody feels like they want to do their work individually and they're forced to be together. In the first episodes the main cast was more open to each other, I think that they behaved pretty normally in the beggining, but after the tournament started it became irritating to see them interact. I don't even like the characters in this reboot. Everything is so rushed and random, it is a complete mess. Mechas? Aliens? Random fleet raids that don't have any purpose in the story? TRAINS!! You'll start questioning yourself what are you watching, you came for some Jojo style shamanic fights, you ended up in a state of constant confusion and fatigue. Out of context spoiler warning, after Yoh and Anna's backstory, the story gets confusing, non sensical, random, things just start happening with no coherence or proper explication. I wrote so much about how the story gets baaad, but I haven't wrote what's going on. ![]() From a basic battle shounen with some tournament elements in it, this anime becomes an incoherent mess, so bad in fact I can even compare with the Wonder Egg Priority special: in the end it became a "random stuff go", "let's just put something just to fill in" type of story, and not as so bad it is funny as the early mentioned WEP, but it actually gets frustrating to follow up the events. From the start it can have some lows in its storytelling, but at least is it competent enough to pass? No, I don't think it's enough, worse, it gets worse, and worse in time, and the last third of the story gets so bad you can't even process what is going on in front of your eyes. It is a brand new adaptation of a 20+ year old battle shonen series, for a 2021-2022 anime it is obviously filled with some outdated and old clichees that everybody had enough of. There is nothing much to explain, it's exactly like this. There are times when characters don't fit with the background at all. The far away shots look strange, the animation is cutted out, it is weird and clunky looking and the frames look junky. The action scenes are just boring, nothing entertaining is going on. There are at times some more detailed close ups, but they do not bring anything to the table. It looks bad, it looks cheap, it looks boring, weak, uninteresting, there is no compelling thing visually. I'll quickly resume what is going on animation wise. entertained, but I was hoping that in time it'll get better, right? Right? The first episode made me meh enough, there was no wow factor to get me I became more and more disappointed the more episodes I've consumed. It may or it may not be clear by now, but I grew up watching the old adaptation, and I will try to not bring it up that much in this review. I remember the first time when the reboot was announced: I was so excited to start it, and because I rarely get hyped over new anime, it is pretty clear that I had some high enough expectations at that time. !!
