I think the last episode of dungeon meshi reeeeally justified why they're animating it lol like while there are some parts that can't measure up to kui's original work, here they REALLY mastered the space and panic of the attack* and the Laios and Shuro scene truly benefited from having (excellent) voice acting to go with the dynamite dialogue

Also seeing HER in motion was like. Thanks. Thankssss

Also I can't underline this enough, the dub of this show is so good that Japanese audiences are choosing to watch it dubbed rather than subbed

#i do not typically watch dubs but this one is immaculate and the direction is top notch.#even falin is better now that shes mostly just growling and spitting#dunmesh tag by vector

I think if you care about mediocre art you have to make space for stuff that's cringe and inauthentic in a way where the person making it clearly hasn't learned how to be genuine yet

i remember walking home one day from the pub back in England with some people iu was ostensibly friends with ages 15-18 and it was when i was in that awful waiting period of wanting to go back to America to be with meowgon and people drank a lot and i learned a lot about what people had been doing in the time since i was gone. and everyone felt kind of weird and standoffish and like. trying to score points off me all night. and when i walked home with the only one of them who i believed was still my friend she said well you see they do think that you kind of just left and never talked to them again. and that you act a bit stuck up. and cold.

and that's kind of fair. i don't make contact over long distance. I'm very bad at it. but it struck me then that it had been how it was all through my teenhood and people had been meeting up to complain about my various shortcomings and it was why i never got as close with them as they all got with each other. and it's fine now. I've made peace with it. but it did make me a bit sad. you guys could have said something. if i knew i would have tried to meet you half way.

#its ok. but i am thinking about it tonight for obvious reasons. anyway I'm sleep now. i had a nice sonic stream!!!

You should watch and read and engage with media that is kind of poorly conceived and disappointingly executed. It's very enriching imo

RIGHT

It's not as strong as the other thing in this category to me but for somethung that's not particularly good there's something that really sticks with you

I think for all the ridiculous and uninspired screenplay there's something about it that truly nails the pathetic, exhausted ennui of living in the north of England as a sixth form student and having no prospects

Like the thing is that usually with stuff like this even if the quality isn't great I find myself like entranced by the earnestness of it but I REALLY don't thibk that's the case here. Like as a piece of art the degree it's targeted at a certain demographic (that it disnt end up reaching) feels so cynical it me

But I guess on the other hand like i suppose even on the meta level of being a work of art that deliberate aimed for a lower level of success and STILL fumbled it, that captures the mood of the characters lives in a poignant way the film wouldn't have if it actually found its audience

Oh it's like the antithesis of earnest!!! It's soooo calculated but I think that's kind of part of it??? Like. I think when you grow up in the UK you kind of have this antagonistic and jealous relationship with American media and AatA is like the concentrated form of that
