Mac Arrowny 03/14/18 2:14:18 PM #263: | Finished Inuyashiki. Wow. I loved this show! One of my favorites of last year! If I'd actually watched this before the contest deadline Inuyashiki definitely would've been my pick for best male character, and I might've put it in a few other categories too. Felt kinda like Spider-Man? But with a sad old man as the protagonist rather than a sad teenager. I love Spider-Man, so the similarities were quite a good thing. I enjoyed the villain quite a bit too. The show did a good job of making him not feel completely one dimensional. It just felt like it knew how to make you care about all the characters. Even minor characters - the show wasn't afraid to spend a few minutes on a really minor character's life so that we'd get the full impact when their lives intersected with the MCs. I was really afraid they were going to mishandle Shion when they started focusing on her, but her parts were completely fantastic. Most importantly, the show was emotional. I cried in several episodes. Emotional fiction is the best. If it makes me cry, nothing else really matters. The show did have some flaws - the CG was pretty bad, and there was an oddly long Inuyashiki-less section that felt like it should've had him, but those were minor in the end. I loved this show. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
