SALUTING A MAL OG, glad you're still here kingu o7

Great taste

Hey, thanks! "Lit student sounding reviews"; I don't know how to take that. It is certainly accurate, but it feels a little demeaning somehow too. Bah, I'm sure you meant well, so I won't get my panties in a bunch over it.

I am surprised that you agree "entirely" about my Katanagatari review, to be honest; I guess that goes to show how deluded I was about the uniqueness of my personal take, huh? I am also a little bit shocked to have earned a response so quick; to be entirely honest I was not expecting anyone to read anything of what I wrote. I'm gonna be sincere and straight up admit that I've decided to start writing reviews now and then to make sure that I do not forget about the shows I've liked; my memory is piss poor for this kind of stuff and this seemed like a good form of therapy. So you can imagine why I didn't expect any kind of reaction for them. Pretty gullible of me.

I am inclined to believe that your views will trump mine based on the fact that you have dropped more anime than I have watched, so I appreciate your receptiveness to a complete newbie talking not so positively about your favorite anime. I completely agree with you about the vcr filter; I really should have given it more thought. It was a very curious decision on the director's part and I should have meditated on it rather than viewing it as an annoyance. I do remember that last shot during the final episode in which the camera pulled back from the screen as though we had been watching a TV transmission all along. Upon noting that, I realize that you are entirely correct about us watching Kino alongside the world. For all my talk about her being my favorite part of the series, I didn't give her enough credit as to acknowledge that she's more than just a decoy for the audience; she's a part of the world we are observing and not a filter. Thanks for making me reach that conclusion. I also have to say that I love the hell out of her design. I have a real weakness for androgynous characters (I'm not sure why), specially boyish girls, and even though I didn't know her to be a girl at first I might have always suspected it.

And yeah, I must admit that I'm trying, perhaps too hard, to form my own criteria. You see, as you can probably see I am very forgiving and tend to really enjoy everything I watch. Perhaps in trying to "correct" this aspect, I might have been unfair to this show. The "fairy tale", to me, is more than just an aesthetic, rather, a general tone. I should have seen that as a better justification than I did. I think that Kino's Journey probably deserves a higher grade than I've given it, so I'll bump it up to 8.

I've been rambling; sorry. Anyway, I really appreciate your input. By the way, would your recommend the 2017 anime? After watching the movies and the OVA I might still be in the mood for more.

Is School Days still your fifth favorite anime? Just curious.
