I Failed At Anime 2022

i think i will make an effort to not entertain the possibility of a show loving up/going bad when posting about early episodes. it feels kinda oldADTRW and i'm starting to dislike seeing it in stuff like season thread posts. like nobody needs to keep one foot out the door just in case something they were enjoying suddenly falls apart

yeah if it looks cool be excited about it, if it goes to poo poo later on it's ok to bail at that point.

Kinda weird when folks feel like they have to hedge on stuff just in case like someone is going to give them poo poo for liking a thing that turned out to be bad in the end.

I'm basically at the point where if I suspect that might happen with a show I just wait and see what people are saying when it's all over.

It's a good show with a strong anti-war message, which it gets across by making you really really disgusted with the realities of war.

i don't think many people probably watch it, but it's definitely a good show. it's about a war and most of the characters are child soldiers or hostages of the army, so there are things like the civilian girl character being passed around to soldiers (off-screen). i feel like it handles these things well and they're all presented with the proper discretion and gravity.

also episode 6 gives me some sense of hope for the characters and their situations, as opposed to the first five just slowly making me feel worse.

in retrospect there wasn't much reason to be hopeful, i guess. but Sara did escape the soldiers!
