Six word review

cudwieser

Student Council President
Here is another carry over thread that may be of interest. This was set up as an experimental review thread to give a snappy (and fairly creative) summation of anime you've seen.

As the title suggest write in six words or less you opinionion of an anime title or episode.

The rules are that the reviews MUST be six words or less.

The title and/or episode number must be stated at the start followed by the review.

If you use titles in the review then the complete title counts as one word, so abbreviations aren't necessary.

No more than five reviews per post.

Feel free to ask someone to elaborate their view, but address any question and response to the appropriate party to avoid crossed messages.

To get started:

Battle Angel Alita: Interesting characters; rotten directing; fair effort

Riding Bean/Gunsmith Cats: Perfect partners; tragically trunkated; must buys

Blue Sonnet: Forgotten gem; worth remaking; worth finding

Redline: Full throttle high octane sugar high

P.s only the reviews from AUKN members will be carried forward.

K-on series 1: ok dub, but fun and enjoyable

Evangelion 1+2: lovely mecha design and story.

They were the last 3 watched.

Paranoia Agent: A sublime story creates unlimited allegories.

Kanon: Mature storytelling involves elegant character pathos.

5 Centimeters Per Second: Depressing story. I will lynch Duoinchains.

Familiar of Zero (Season 1): Snugly and wholesome, but insipid nonsense.

School Days: Irritating characters ultimately learn sharp lessons.

Master of Martial Hearts: This is a load of rubbish.

Look... I said I was sorry...

I'd go with:

5cm Per Second: Angsty teens contemplate love. With trains.

Usagi Drop: A man adopts his aunt

Bletch: Dead people fight other dead people. (Endlessly)

Gantz: Dead people fight aliens. People Explode.

Grave of the Fireflies: Kids die. War is hell. Heartbreaking.

No probs. I didn't (and won't) make rules against banter (in fact I indirectly encouraged it). The only thing I would ask is if you would all at least tack on a review(s) to keep the thread flowing.


Neo ranga (first half): three sisters; a deity; surprisingly dull

Ad police: bubblegum crisis without the sabers; short; mediocre

Plastic little: short yet worthwhile; even has fanservice

Revision 3: number typed numerically or alphanumerically will count as one word. Numbers typed alphanumerically that have more than one word will count as one word: e.g. 1 = one word; one = one word 21= one word; twenty one = one word

Durarara- Supernatural. Intertwinning lives of Ikkeburo residents.

interesting point about Tokyo Revelation is in japan it's known as Shin Megami Tensei: Tokyo revelation which may make the Ova make abit more sense to those who have played those games.


Guin Saga: Leopard Man, royal Twins, Fantasy Saga.

Or how about:
Squid girl: Invasion of the idiot squid princess.
since technically she's squid royalty (or so she claims) i prefer to think she's the idiot youngest child of the royal family who decided to try an invasion just to prove she was better than her better siblings, but due to not being very patient (or bright) she botched the intel and the rest is what we see in the 2 seasons of the show
